Hi Everyone Its a year ago this weekend that the Riding School closed its doors and we said goodbye to some of our ponies--glad to say they are all happy and in good homes. Retirement is weird, lovely in some ways and not having to live by the clock but the School and the Rallies, Competitions and the clients greatly missed. Loan Riders tomorrow--- we will still be giving the ponies lots of attention but because of the heat any riding will be very short. remember water, hats, sun cream and loose long sleeved tops.

Jet our ex Riding School horse needs a friend a couple of times a week to groom and give him some light exercise. Jet is 15hh and is a very easy laid back fella who is good in the arena and loves hacking out. He would be suitable for a novice loaner ( 11st weight limit ) as long as basic position good. Must be committed and have own insurance. Small contribution required. P M only

SAD NEWS EVERYONE: This morning we said goodbye to our dear little "Jezzie" (Kipton Genesis) He had been suffering for the past week with the virus and a decision was made to say goodbye. Jezzie would have been 30yrs in June and had been with us for 20yrs. Such a pretty little Section B Pony who gave so many of you your first canters and jumps--- Jezzie loved to jump ! He was bred by Diane Perowne at her stud in Hevingham Spencer and all of us will miss him. To remember him it would be lovely to have any photos. Jane x
