I'm up at the crack of dawn, filing Aires' hooves and talking to him softly. His breath makes massive clouds of white in the frosty air.

"Now I see why Fers does this all the time. You're a big boy.  You've got some crud here, that's for sure.  Stand still, boyo.  Stand still.  Don't you go..."

I stop talking as Hound comes outside. I pause, rising for a moment, and Aires takes this to mean I am done. He gives me an affectionate nudge which I don't expect, and I almost go stumbling into a bush, swearing. I regain my posture and come striding back, and hold his massive head and pat his snout, tugging his huge horns playfully.

"I love you too, Aires. Criminy."
