Thank you for stopping by. I hope you'll find plenty here to interest you about the various breeds of heavy horses found in Britain and one of our other
wonderful natives - the Welsh Cob. I like to feature a collection of show and event reports from England and Wales, and other items that will fascinate
country lovers.
However, I don't always limit the content to horses. In the past I've featured extraordinarily lifelike birds and animals made by an exceptionally
talented sculptress, and encounters with the biggest eagle in the world, who flies free. Rosemary's even been privileged to have this magnificent bird on her fist!
So who knows what could turn up in the future?

Sadly shows become ever more expensive to run, so some have drastically increased admission fees, but stopped issuing complementary passes to the press.
Naturally that limits the number of reports I receive.

I hoped to leave reports up permanently, because you never know who might search Google for what,
but housekeeping to make space means that many have to go. Sorry!
Also, since the spammers found software to get through my previous disguise, I have to put spaces
