#throwbackthursday to a younger Navarron and Chloe when they competed across the UK in #tentpegging ! This photo was taken a few years ago at the Bexhill horse show during a demo performed in their main jumping… https://t.co/811cLVGI4k

Nothing like spending the late afternoon playing with your horses.. the best cure for stress we find.

Teaching from a distance... It's strange to not be packing up our lorry ready for the weekend.

We're lucky enough to live on site with our horses so we can keep them exercised during the lockdown. Tama is one that… https://t.co/XvwKgl5gQ2

Navarron got a bridle upgrade this week! Made especially to his unique head shape to negate the need for buckles and make a more accurate representation of historical tack.

Who's next?

We decided that Navarron was looking a bit faded from the sun so we traded him in for a newer model..
😂 Only kidding! Navarron would never let himself be sidelined, he was giving Tam the stink eye when he was being… https://t.co/jiLQVncHiS

When it's finally dry enough for them to graze down the training field again!

This week Navarron was working with a drone to collect footage for a video project. Getting him working around the loud, flying camera helped him to ignore it and the shots captured look amazing! Having worked… https://t.co/zlGcxMspeD

Upon waking early one morn it was discovered that a horse had been taken! Quickly, the lord saddled his prized destrier and armed only with a dagger (and a few dozen men-at-arms), set out to retrieve the beautiful… https://t.co/Apc9A0FKDs

A "quiet" day of training at the Battle HQ today. We were very surprised at the sight of the sun! Our ground crew got their shiny hats out especially and, true to form, began to squabble about who was prettiest. We… https://t.co/9zSVqvP5Fp

A rainy day at Battle HQ. Navarron and Opie have been enjoying our shelter and hay while their servants clean out their beds, and putting up with a sneaky Tama who decided he preferred their hay to his out in the… https://t.co/TrwixhiUrj

Baby Tam trying on a comparison for the first time. It took a little longer than usual to put it on, but it was only because he was trying to help us put it on! As you can see Ron doesn't look too impressed… https://t.co/Lh91QLHwdZ

Opie has been enjoying her time off over winter and had successfully completed her goal of becoming mostly mud. It might take us a while to get her back to being as shiny as she was in the summer! #mudmonster #mud… https://t.co/IS2S7LXyE6

A nice quiet day training with friends. Can't think of a better way to spend a Sunday! Navarron helpfully supervised (and was a great office chair to teach from) and helped Bessie build confidence around flags and… https://t.co/W60xh1MWYa

Nothing like taking out your favourite duo to get rid of those Monday morning blues. A nice gentle stroll around the farm in the morning sun.

As a special Christmas present lady Kara was given Navarron to ride! As an experienced rider with a good, sympathetic seat she usually rides the baby horses for us during trainings so it was a nice treat for her to… https://t.co/yJTS6GIHDr

After a crisp, early morning start with the farrier, the horses are back out and enjoying the warm sunshine with their hay breakfast.
