Pony spotting

Hi chums!

Laura here: newlaura.jpg

Well, you’ll be happy to know I am in a super-chilled and cheery mood. I’m full of energy and recuperated after a week's holiday in Devon. It was lovely. Whilst away, we saw a load of Exmoor ponies who live semi-wild on the moor, they were just munching at the side of the road.

Since I’ve got back there’s been yet more ponies roaming around – just down the road from the H+P offices of all places!

I was driving to work the other day when a Shetland pony stepped out on to the path next to the road. His fence to his field had come down and the cheeky little monster had squeezed himself out and was running loose! I stopped to help round him up and made a headcollar with my coat belt to hold him.

Eventually we got him back in his field out of the way of the cars. His owner came as soon as she found out and made his paddock safe again - so disaster avoided! He was super cute though, when I caught him I did wonder about taking him into the office and keeping him as an office pet!
