Blogtober


 Are any of you taking part in "Blogtober"? 

Do let us know if you are.

If you haven't heard of Blogtober it's a sort of blogging challenge where bloggers from all over the world try to publish a post every day during the month of October.

We thought we'd try and join in this year, though to be honest writing 31 blog posts in 31 days is probably going to be rather too much, everyday life often gets in the way of the best laid plans.

So in an attempt to make the challenge achievable for ourselves we're aiming to write and publish 2 to 3 blog posts a week on here or on Eggsy's Ko-fi  which is where we've been mostly blogging lately.

And yes we are counting this as our first blog post of Blogtober!

Hope you'll follow along with us and please, if you are blogging yourself, put a link in the comments so we can come and have a read. 

See you soon x

Seeking Share Care Friends

Image
During a conversation (via Ko-fi) about the frankly frightening rise in price of animal feed since Brexit / Covid Susan from Frugaldom mentioned that she was hoping to find some "Share-Care" families to help with the cost and physical care of the ponies she has rescued, (if you live in the Dumfries and Galloway area of Scotland and this appeals to you please get in touch with Susan .) She wondered if this was something that we might be able to adapt for Eggsy. Being on a livery yard it would be difficult to have lots of different people coming to care for Eggsy, and, although he has lots of friends from all over the world hardly any are local to us. Also we don't really need the physical help, the whole family mucks in if needed. It sounded like a great idea but probably not one that would work for us. But it's been hovering in the back of our minds for a few weeks now and suddenly we wondered if  a virtual share-care would work.  If you've been following his sto

  This is Part 2 of Eggsy Pony's year that was 2022, if you haven't read part 1, January - June, you'll find it here: Eggsy Pony's year that was 2022 January - June  July You may remember that when we left Muddy Bottom in January, Hansel the Goose and  Gingee the stray cat who stayed came home with us, in July Eggsy Pony gave an update on how they were settling in via his Eggsy Pony Diaries on Ko-fi : "Gingee our old feline compadre from Muddy Bottom days finally left the sofa and started to explore the house. This has not gone well, he is now encamped on the landing much to the disgruntlement of several other felines who liked that spot. The human is also rather disgruntled as Gingee Roo Roo is now deserving of the name Gingee Poo Poo, he has, unfortunately taken to using the bathroom for toileting. That's right Gingee Poo Poo is pooing on the bathroom floor! On the bright side he is still weeing in a litter box downstairs. As far as this little pony can see

Moving to a livery yard

Hello this is Eggsy Pony's new blog  where we're going attempt to keep you all enthralled with Eggsy's adventures and those of his friends.  If you've read the last blog post on Eggsy's old blog Overcoming Adversity A Pony's Tale you'll know that over the last two years things have changed dramatically for us, as they have for many.  Due to changes made by our landlord we were forced to relocate the horses to a livery yard while Hansel the goose and Gingee the "yard" cat have had to come home to live with us in the garden and house respectively. Moving day was 19th January, Boo and Pip went first, they travelled well and settled remarkably in their new stables whilst waiting for Maddie and Eggsy to arrive. That's when the trouble started. Although she loaded well, Maddie has never been a good traveller and Eggsy refused to load. Mads got impatient waiting for him to load and as she was beginning to get stressed we decided to take her by hersel
