My boy's unmasked face greeted me over the fence this morning.
"Heh, heh, heh!"
"Oh Max!" I scolded with disappointment.
"And there it is! SCORE" Max fairly crowed. He didn't even have the decency to look contrite.
Then the imp proceeded to jog behind me as I did my field search.
"Nope, cold. Getting colder... ah, warmer, warmer... Um. I'm going back to the gate now, 'k?"
He hoiked it off on a fence post, and completely ripped one of the fastening straps. I may still be able to get it to stay on though, so I'll try tonight with one strap and a plaited forelock and see if that gets us anywhere.
Don't fancy my chances really... Sigh.
He's a very naughty boy!
“His name is Max, and he's a Norwegian Fjord X Arab. He’ll be four in June. I have about a month to see if I can make it work and make him mine. Have to see if he chooses me too, and whether I'll do him justice.” (1st May, 2006)
