After a month of meeting some very unusual people, visiting some very different places and trying a very mixed bag of horses I finally bought my lovely new girly home on Sunday.

Her name is Waltzing Matilda (Tilly) she is a 14.2hh TBx Welsh Section D although the only cob bit of her is her wideish back! She is only 6 so pretty much a blank canvas although she has done a fair bit of hacking and has the basics in the school including a lovely jump. She has settled well into her field and has already started making friends but is a little unsettled in the yard on her own at the moment but there are lots of scary bits of tarpaulin flapping around and she is much happier when there are other horses there.

I am taking things very slowly with her as she is so young and I don't want to get anything wrong but she seems to already be beginning to trust me.

Anyway the important bit now the pictures, will post ridden one's once I get on board :)

Thanks all she is such a sweet girl and just seems so tiny and fragile compared to my old boy who was a great hulking beast of an ID so I am just learning to adapt my behaviour to her quieter nature whilst still remaining firm :)

Thanks for your lovely comments everyone.

Pedilia I have so many plans for her but I am going to take it slowly so don't intend to achieve them all in the first year! Mainly we will be hacking and hopefully some jumping at local shows. Our first target is to do a pleasure ride in the spring and I would also like to be able to do a little bit of local level dressage.

Thanks again everyone I haven't decided whether I will be subscribing yet but if I do I will update you all as we go :)
