A Tough Choice
I've been looking after Lupin for a while now and we've had time to get to know each other a little better.
Lupin is a real sweetie; a bit of a twit at times, but a sweetie all the same, however I think that he is really a little too much for me just at the moment.
As you know I want to get back to regular riding (Benjamin is 5 and I last rode when I was pregnant!) but dear lovely Lupin is not the horse for me at this stage.
With Hannah away at University, Lupin is getting very little work and it is sad to see this lively and capable creature not being ridden and jumped (he loves jumping) anywhere near enough.
So I've been thinking hard about what to do next.
The choices are:

The choices are:
- Sell Lupin and buy another horse better suited to my needs.
- Keep Lupin and buy another horse etc
- Put Lupin out on loan and buy another horse
- Turn Lupin away until I can feel confident enough to ride him
Hannah and I are so fond of Lou, he's a wonderful fellow and it would break our hearts to see him go, so whatever we decide this is going to be a tough choice.
