I still can't bring myself to watch War Horse though - my eyes would be red for days and I would have to pretend I'd been pickling onions, or something!Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18218332259187330304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4525594470029141306.post-66794025012962328262012-01-23T20:52:47.611+00:002012-01-23T20:52:47.611+00:00Hi Linda,

I completely agree, animals do need companions, and I was getting a little worried about Arnold being on his own when he'd been used to company.

We started with one cat and got another so when we were at work he'd have a friend, then one more cat adopted us so now we have three. Our neighbor used to have one cow and it had a calf one day the calf ran along the fence trying to play with me and I ran along too, next thing you know that calf would run along the fence at least once a day with me, he needed a friend too.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4525594470029141306.post-85656337631518146462012-01-23T12:39:36.921+00:002012-01-23T12:39:36.921+00:00I like the look of Arnold.

I didn't start riding horses until I was in my late 50's. <br />It's a good thing your friend, John, stays busy. Arnold is still a nice looking horse. I would be proud to have him as my own.<br />Seeds should be in sometime this week.
