Summer hols are over

The Summer hols are over and Autumn is trying to make a show although the horses are still sweating and the temperatures are hovering between 25º and 30º - not even dropping at night!
We’ve suffered every which way from the elements– extreme heat, broiling sun, drought, tornados, flash floods…………..no snow yet thank goodness!
We had some great Summer c
Camps, Pony Mornings and Pony Schooldays. META cooking is still a fave rave. Yummy!
Veronica showed us how to make chocolate and biscuit cake– lots of choc sauce! – and some Spanish style doughnuts called ‘Buñuelos’that went down a real treat, fun to make and delish to eat!
We had visits from new Belgian friends and from our old faithfuls:- Nathan, Abigail, Zara, Amy Long, Talitha, Laura and Emilyand the Todd girls (we all had to watch Chitty Chitty Bang Bang with Louise. That was fun).
Asher spent the summer at Camp Americawhere he was given the position of Equine Advisor – Amazing! He’s now started Equine Studies at AberystwythUniversity. Hi Asher!
Becky is doing Equine Studies at a posh College in Gloucestershire. The other day they all went to HOYS. Nice eh? Hi Becky!
Our Champagne Hacks are going down a treat. We’ve found a fantastic Cava that everybody thoroughly enjoys after a ride through the lemon orchards.
In August we had an excursion from a Summer Camp in Sierra Espuña, 60 Spanish children between the ages of 3 yrs and 12 yrs old –absolutely manic but lots of fun.
Now we’re getting ready for half term, already had the Robertson family – some Scottish schools have started half term already. It was Holly’s 11th Birthday and she celebrated with a META riding class on Lily. Emma rode Tinker– it was good!
Not only are we getting ready for half term but starting to plan our Halloween Show, one of the most important events of the year – Sunday November 4th this year.
AND we’ve started something very special –META Formation School – designed to train specialists in Horse Assisted Therapy, just horses at the moment but who knows, could be dogs, exotic birds, farm animals…….?
Last but not least METAhas been asked to save a mare. The only way to do this is to give her to our RDA Association and ask for donations for her upkeep.
