Hey guys it’s me the best cob Flynn.
I have been thinking a lot this week and I'd like to report a serious issue. I am being followed.😟

Everywhere I go, there are humans.
I walk to the gate? Humans.
I stand in the field? Humans.
I put my head over the stable door hoping for five minutes of peace? Humans.
And they all seem to want something.
"Flynn, can you look after this rider?"
"Flynn, can you stand still?"
"Flynn, can you stop eating that?"

It's exhausting being this popular.
This week has been the usual riding school chaos. I've escorted beginners around like the seasoned professional I am, forgiven some very creative steering decisions, and listened patiently while riders told me their deepest secrets halfway through a trek.
I know everything, by the way.👀
I know who's nervous.
I know who's feeling confident.
I know who's forgotten their left from their right.
And I definitely know who's got treats in their pocket.🍎

The yard has also entered that strange time of year where the weather can't make up its mind. One minute everyone's in T-shirts talking about summer, the next minute they're rummaging through the tack room looking for waterproofs and questioning all their life choices.☔️

I, meanwhile, have remained consistent.😘
Still handsome.
Still hardworking (some may disagree)
Still unfairly expected to exercise before breakfast.
I've also spent a lot of time this week watching the humans. They spend an extraordinary amount of money on equipment designed to stop mud getting on things, only to immediately put those things in mud. Fascinating species.
Anyway, another successful week completed.
The riders learned things.
The instructors survived (just). 😳
The ponies caused minor drama (by ponies I mean Blackcurrant, Blueberry, and Guinness). 👀
And I continued carrying the riding school on my broad, athletic shoulders.
You're welcome.
Love from everybody’s favourite cob Flynnnnnn ❤️

🐴Takoda Tuesday 🐴

Our not so little boy will be nearly 10 month old and growing up fear to quickly! This week he’s been enjoying life in his new field, spending times exploring, grazing and keeping close to grandad Gandalf.

It’s lovely to watch him not only have a play around with endless energy like the little baby he is but then also stand quietly beside Gandalf, learning the ropes from the old pro.

Every week there is something new with this “little” man, and we are proud of the horse he is becoming.

Hey guys it’s me your favourite cob Flynn, I’m back with another Flynn Friday. Hold your horses and strap in it’s a good one this week. 🤪

Firstly this week I was dragged out my field while relaxing and was told I’m doing a showing day news to me that is considering I don’t do ANYTHING in the school. Georgia thought she would bribe me with treats. Sienna thought she was going to bribe me by trying to make me look fabulous, but the jokes on her I look fabulous all the time…🍎

So off I go entering the show ring. I showed off my best trot, posed beautifully when people are watching, only occasionally considered leaving the area dramatically to pursue snacks. The humans kept saying things like “good boy” and “he looks amazing”, which I accepted very graciously because I am very humble. 👑

By the end of the day I was exhausted from all the hard work of me being looked at, admired, and generally iconic. Naturally, I celebrated by immediately looking for snacks the second the bridle came off. 😋

Secondly mum and Georgia have been out all day and there is news of a hot new mare coming soon. Leave your guesses in the comments 👀.

Lots of love your favourite cob Flynnnn❤️

This week Takoda was a big boy having his womer while grandad Gandalf was sulking after his. I don’t know who is baby sitting who 🤷🏼‍♀️.

🐴 Horse of the week🐴

This week’s horse of the week is 🌸Blossom 🌸aka Little Blossom.

Blossom has been part of the CCEC family for approximately 9 years now. She will be turning 17 this year.

Blossom is one of our Bransby Horses - Rescue and Welfare girls and we fell in love the moment we laid eyes on her. We are truly lucky that this girl came into our lives and now she will be with us for the rest of hers. She is a special girl with a heart of gold, who puts her everything into her work. Blossom never fails to put a smile on our faces, she has the biggest kindest brown eyes that draw you in instantly.🤎

She is truly a remarkable horse with a bucket of talents. She jumps, hacks, lead rein treks, lead rein lessons, helping people to canter, steps up for our more advanced riders, and even out and about away from the yard pleasure riding. 🏅

Share your blossom stories and pics below we love to see you guys love her as much as we do. ☺️

Who should be horse or pony of the week next week?

Hey guys the best time of the week. Obviously Flynn Friday. Not the fact it’s a long weekend for some of you. ☀️

The sun has finally made an appearance in Britain after my umbrella ☔️ has been up and down 57 times this week already. Now the sun is here the humans are acting like they have never seen it before. Everyone has turned up to the yard wearing sunglasses and short sleeve shirts can’t wait to see the silly tan lines next week☀️.

The yard has been busy. Apparently when the sun comes out everyone suddenly thinks it becomes a perfect time for “just a quick ride”. There is no such thing as a quick ride may I add. I do have a schedule for taste testing the natural growth. 🍃

This weekend is full of the bank holiday chaos, children armed with polos, and at least 43 people saying “it’s too nice to stay indoors.” I must say that this weather is great for trekking, pub rides, lessons, birthday parties, all things horsey.🐴

I do love this time of year really. The yard stays busy, the evenings are lighter, the grass is good (absolute best part if you ask me), and there is always someone around to tell me how handsome I am - which is important for morale. 👑

After working there is always someone on the yard to make sure I’m washed down usually Georgia as she has an obsession with using 26 buckets of water to make sure we are cooled down. Reality check Georgia one bucket will do the job. 💦

Anyway, I hope everyone enjoys the long weekend. Remember to wear sunscreen, drink plenty of water, avoid being directly sprayed in the face with fly spay every 20 minutes, and ALWAYS carry snacks for your favourite riding school pony ( it’s me not Buster).🍎

Love from your favourite cob
Flynnnn ❤️. ###

🐴Takoda Tuesday🐴

This week has been another big adventure. He has gone into his new field so there is lots to explore. He is very well settled with his grandad Gandalf. 🐴

Walking out there Blackcurrant and Blueberry were not helpful at all. Running up and down the field snorting at them, however Takoda was such a well behaved boy, he actually was better behaved than grandad Gandalf🙄.

From exploring every corner of his new big field he is still sticking close to his wise old buddy. Watching the two of them together has been the sweetest thing. Gandalf really is the best with him. Sometimes Takoda has to show Gandalf how to behave. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Growing up every week however, I think for us he will remain the surprise baby 💙.

Can anyone guess who is hiding in the hay 👀.
