Clippety Clop

It's all gone a bit equine round these parts.  I've just completed this soft horse toy for Boo, made from an old jumper of Dadda Boo's.

Then yesterday we were browsing through the book sale of used books at the library, where we sometimes pick up some interesting vintage childrens' books, and came across this little gem.

In 'Flip', a young foal is desperate to jump over the brook like his Mum.  He sleeps and dreams that he has sprouted wings and flies high over the brook and above the farm.  When he awakes, at first he doesn't realise that the wings are not real, and he jumps over the brook for the first time.

Believe you can do it and so it shall come to pass.  Tonight I intend to dream that I have passed my driving test.  Neigh!
