Prince Chester N.H.K.M.E.
After Three Months At Riders Lodge
Ellesse giving me light exercise– January 2005
Happy New Year! Who would have thought I’d be around in 2005?
Thanks to everyone at Riders Lodge, I am living like a King, oh no, a “Prince”. Have daily inspection of the grass, indulge in 4 Chef prepared meals/day (Chef Zaul not Chef Leon).
On New Year’s day, it was weight check by no other than our CEO, Mr. Sennett. For the record, I have added 17 kgs in two months. My legs look smashing, with only a tiny body sore left that is lovingly nursed by Uncle M’saad and my skin - a natural shiny sheen.
Believe it or not . .. The tooth fairy, Mr. Keith showed up 2 weeks ago and fixed all our smiles. And rumour has it, my teeth may have not seen a dentist for at least 6 years, actually I’m not telling them…Never ever!
It could only be my handsome, cool look - I feel like a star - I mean I get extra attention and real TLC from “soooo many”. And get this, Jay tried a saddle on me (easy piesy”), then tested me on the lunge and just as you guessed, Prince Chester passed with flying colours in all gaits… walk, trot and even a little canter. Not easy at the start with my pitiful muscles (what’s left of them). And as a surprise, Catz decided to show me the good old time of being ridden on the grass. Thank god, for a while I was worried I might end up only as playmates to Jenny and Baba (the odd couple goats)!
ow I have my own fleet of professional riders… Mr. Sennett, Jay, Catz and more recently young Ellesse. Thanks for your tender hands - just what I need to get back into shape. Hey guys, let’s keep riding together and pretty soon I’ll be ready for my new sparkling shoes.
Pinch me …’hope it’s not just a dream. So long for now – I’ll keep you posted but remember to say hello on your next visit.
