I was able to see both Sierra and Snowball work. Sierra is still giving out very promising signs but is still growing and won't be hurried.
We don't know much about Snowball. He could be anything but the boys are several weeks behind the girls and this was his first time in the cart since being gelded. Affectionately known as P... in the A.... because of his earlier antics in the sulky he actually behaved reasonably well on this occasion. He's a big solid horse and is possibly a monte type.

The week focused on the baptism of David and Celine's daughters, Clara and Olivia, and I highly recommend Kurt's only slightly censored account of the celebrations surrounding this event. Merci Teresa, Pauline, Marion, John, David and Laura for immense hospitality (not to mention a batch of rock cakes to bring back to London!). I was captured in a reasonable state at some point during the 36 hours of partying, though I'm not sure what liquid has got into the champagne glass.
