Pilgrm & Bailey on a min-holiday


Hi guys, it’s me again, your mini reporter!

Brin did OK for a first go at a blog, didn’t he? He was a bit nervous to start but by his second go I could tell he was getting into it!  He told me he’d like to do another one soon – that’s fine by me!

A bit of news: Bailey & me have moved to a different field, it’s the one we were in when we had our holiday. It’s got a great view of the reservoir, but what’s better than that is the big wall that shelters us from the wind!

At least it’s stopped raining……

……for now, anyway!

Guest Blogger Brin 2: Getting Busier


Hi, it’s me again, Brin.

Pilgrim said I did OK for my first blog, but I should tell you a bit more about what’s going on.

Well I can tell you that we are getting busier and I’m enjoying meeting lots of new people.  I like working with my friends & love going in the outdoor school; a big space for a big horse!

Me in the Outdoor School

Sometimes we go along the track by the reservoir; I get the feeling that this is something everyone enjoys, people and horses.

I love this view from the reservoir track

Overall life here at the Calvert Trust Exmoor is good and certainly never boring!

Guest Blogger Brin 1: Ready to do my bit


Hello everybody, its Brin here, ready to do my bit on Pilgrim’s blog.

Me in the Menage
I’m sure Pilgrim’s told you a lot about me – I remember seeing that photo of me & him in the field; talk about little & large!

Well, what more can I tell you?   I’m doing well here at Calvert Trust Exmoor, working with the rest of the team to give our guests a fun time at the stables.    

I get lots of good food & as well as Pilgrim, I’ve made some good friends.   At the moment I’m sharing a field with Duke; have you met him?  Well, let me tell you he knows everything there is to know about this job – he’s been here at Calvert Trust Exmoor longer than anyone!  

In fact, I think he should do the blog; the stories he could tell!    

Got to go but I’ll write again soon, bye for now.

Back in Full Swing


Hi there everyone! You’ve probably noticed I’ve been a bit quiet these last few weeks – that’s not like me at all!

Anyway I’m in full swing now & want to tell you that Brin is going to do some of the blog for me.

He said he didn’t want to take it over for a whole week as he wasn’t sure he’d have enough to tell you! 

I’m sure he’ll be great!

It will be Brin, honest!

Hello everyone, its still me, the Mighty Atom!

You were probably expecting that the next blog post would be the big guy Brin, but its still me. He will be blogging soon, but he's almost as popular as me, so he's been a bit too busy to do any writing!

I’ve been very busy too so far this week,not only have I done my agility but I’ve also done some driving! maybe I'll be ready to challenge the big guys sometime soon...

Its going to be Brin!


I’ve made my choice for the next blogger: I’ll ask Brin.

I think he will be good at it, plus as he’s fairly new to the stables he’ll be able to give another horse’s thoughts on what we do.

Brin & me playing together - he's a big fella!

I will have to make sure he doesn’t write too much though!

….maybe I should tell him that there’s a limit on the number of words per blog!

Do you think that would work?    I’ll give it a try!

Who to Choose?


I’ve been thinking who I could ask to do the blog for me, and although Bruno said he’d 'love a go' again & I’m sure Hendrix would do it if I asked, I’d like to ask someone new.

I could ask Duke, he’s been here at Calvert Trust longer than any of us & is very experienced in just about everything. Or I could ask Brin, I’m sure he’s got lots to tell you as he’s always got plenty to say when we catch up!

Of course there is one other I could ask…

...my little mate Bailey.  But is he quite ready for the responsibility that comes with being a ‘blogger’?   

Is there such a thing as too much choice?
