Pepito goes to work

No. Not the title of my latest unpublished children's book; my soon-to-be-published post on our not very hard working working horse.

excellent! Was thinking about him on Monday . . . the saddlers in Ditchling is having a relocation sale and they had fly nets (we were looking for half chaps)

Pepito needs a fly mask thingy if they've got one for a working horse. Otherwise might have to use a pair of socks like they do in Portugal.
