Easter holidays diary day 1. More sunny weather, riding ponies and then dozing with ponies in the sun. Swimming in the brook lead to a water fight and eventually cooling off in the ponies water buckets, much to their displeasure. This evening Elsie did some jumping on Paris the golden pony then after tea we decided to have a fire and a disco. Cora is now struggling but Elsie has just changed into sequinned hot pants and seems to be gathering momentum. Max, Dibber and Dougal have all deserted us for bed. Please send help. When do they go back to school?
