Countdown
Thank you for the last comments my friends, unfortunately I am not able to write any comments in my own blogg (again). I don't have many news but I can tell you that there came a new horse into Baga's herd on Friday and she has been kicked badly. Baga is not really injured but has some contusions on her chest now. It was very hard to see it because she nearly felt down after the kick and came to me immediately...on three legs :o((( She was trembling all-over and not using her left front-leg. But after some minutes the shock was over and she started to eat with the other horses. I have not seen any more fight after this and I don't know who is the new boss of the herd. We will see in some days... Here you can see one picture of Friday. Unfortunately I can not upload more pictures because this blogg is a bad blogg. Can anybody please lend me a kennitala that I can try blog.is? *grrrrrr*

Baga-News
Today I was sitting on Baga again after many many months. You remember that I am at the moment only working from the ground because I think this main work is very important for us both. But I was so curious and felt good so I jumped on her after the ground-work today and was riding her a little bit - only with halter and rope. It was great to see how good it worked!!!

A-Finals T1
My dearest friends, I am very sorry but it was not so easy like I thought to work on a computer during the World Championships so maybe you only found my picture of Dalvar frá Auðsholtshjáleigu on the frontpage of Worldfengur. I will write you a longer story about the WC later but now I have to rush because many many pictures need to be send into internet. I will keep you updated the next days because it surely needs days/weeks to get all my pictures into internet ;-) First I uploaded the pictures of the A-Finals T1 today. New world champion is Stian Pedersen with Jarl frá Miðkrika. All pictures of the A-Finals T1 are on my website: http://skinfaxa.net/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=6040

World Championships for Icelandic Horses
In the night of Thursday to Friday we will start our tour to Holland. I got accreditated and Jens has tickets in the Iceland-block :o))) I am very excited and hope that I will find the time at HM to upload the newest pictures and news into my blogg. Are there any favourite horses which you wanted to get pictures of, my friends? I am spennt to see Dalvar frá Auðsholtshjáleigu again and one horse is competing for Holland which is named Roði frá Lágafelli. He is related to Baga and I want to show her pictures of him later ;-)Read you again on Friday the 10th!

Sorry!!!
Sorry for the long break but like everytime I didn’t found enough time to blogg. There is a lot of work to do now and I try to spend every free minute with Baga. Unfortunately we didn’t worked much together the last weeks but we managed to walk a little through the village and country from time to time.
Now the weather is rather boring since about two weeks and it’s hard to take pictures outside. Further Baga always tries to crawl into my lense what makes it more and more difficult to take pictures of her ;-)
One week after my last blogg – as the weather still was fine – I took some pictures of an icelandic horse. It was a nice mare named Síða and I got some very nice shots. After this I visited my parents and spent some nice time with them.
The next two weekends I was rather lazy: only somtimes working on the computer, doing some housework and sleeping on the sofa because I am often very tired from work. From now until end of September I will only work and never have any free minute for me. I hope I’ll find enough time for Baga and me during the weekends.
At the moment I am trying to get accredited for the world championships in Holland but I don’t think that I will manage this.
Today I had planned to take pictures at a tournament but the weather is so variable that I better stay at home. Maybe it looks better tommorrow. But the weather is ok to visit Baga and to clean out the horse-paddock so I did this some hours ago. I also tried to put her the eksem-coat on but I was rather unhappy with it. Not with Baga! She was 
brilliant! First I was thinking about putting her the halter on but then I decided to try it free on the paddock – and it worked. It was no problem to put the coat over her head (it is like if you put yourself a sweater on) and she stood still until I had found out how to turn it right. But the coat is rather big in my opinion. I’m afraid that she could hurt herself if she is lying on the ground and standing up again or wallowing herself. Further I first had 
scruple that maybe Íman could try to “undress” Baga because he is playing with everything on the paddock and is biting in everything what is lying in the paddock but I don’t needed to have this scruple because Baga immediately tried to undress herself *argh*. I think she don’t like her coat ;-) Stupidly it could help her in bad insect-times because the insects can not bite her if she is wearing the coat. Now I am thinking about a solution.
After the “fitting” I cleaned the paddock and later I wanted to take some pictures but then Peter arrived and I helped him a little bit in the stable. After it he was working on the fence and I was running over the paddock trying to get some nice pictures. Luckily Baga was so fascinated about Peters work that she was not crawling into my lense ;-)
