Everything seemed to go alright at the stables today, although I don't know how much help I was as I didn't really do much. They did let me lead a pony from the field and then back again after they got finished with it. Other than that I spent most of my time with Lynsey in the ring while she was teaching. My job there was to help her with jumps and just generally be there should she need help. It was very cold though, especially as I wasn't able to keep warm doing anything. When I got home and mum saw how frozen I was she had a go at dad which I felt bad about. He's been saying he is going to take me down to the farmers store to get some proper clothes for me to wear when outdoors in the cold, wet and mud, but he's been busy all week so hasn't had chance to take me.
There were several other girls helping out at the stables today. For helping out they get to ride the horses when they are free. I didn't see much of them but when I did we seemed to get on okay. Today would have been a more fun day if it were warmer and I knew what I was doing but as it was it was bitter and miserable and for the most part I felt like a spare part on a shelf.
