I LOVE MATILDA!!!!

Will we actually be able to tell if she is in labour - every time I log in - she is either fast asleep laying down or fast asleep standing up - I think she is priceless.

I thin we ought ought ot have a Matilda Fan Club =she is just so laid back _ id on't know who the owner is, but she has an absolute poppet there!!

I would certainly sign up for it.

I wonder if she will just give birth whilst asleep and suddenly find a foal there :lol:

Me and Abbi went to go and look at the place where she got Matilda from and no joke there were about 100 horses there all for sale, but we saw her and fell in love with her. She is an absolute sweetie.

Ill tell Abbi that you all love her, she thinks the world of her and Gordon (her traditional gelding) X

Matilda seems a bit uncomfortable & restless .

I see the cam is only on her now - and her tail is plaited, does this mean the foalie is due shortly? how exciting

Thanks for the phone call Sarah... I had fallen asleep in front of the laptop. Got Stef out of bed, she ran down to the yard, and the foal had made an appearance in the time it took her to put her boots on.

I just knew I was always going to miss this one.

Glad all is well. Currently can only see his legs, but am sure he is gorgeous - how could anything out of Matlida be anything else.

Congratulations.

aw just seen him move now. He is gorgeous. His tail looks like a feather duster. Matilda is being so loving towards him.
