I must just put a short tribute to my friends pony, Danny, who died today in his field with all of his mates around him at the age of 37.
Danny had been a riding school pony for most of his life but was bought by my friend 13 years ago and had lived out his life with a lovely herd, 40 acres of grass and a warm stable for those winter nights. He was a real character who had to be first out in the morning and last in at night and our yard is not going to be the same, especially over the winter months, with out Danny there, head over the stable door, barely taking the time to eat his brekkie before demanding to be turned out.
Danny loved living with his herd and could keep up with the youngsters but was found, today, in the field and the herd were all stood around him. Rest in peace old boy - you'll be missed - but we'll meet again at Rainbow bridge.
