I would just like to say a HUGE thank you to the emergency service men and women who passed me when I was out hacking alone today.
Could hear sirens in the distance..
First a rapid response ambulance, sirens lights everything went off, they passed quicker (going opposite direction) than is advised, but being they were on their way somewhere = understandable.
After turning round for home, about 10-15 minutes later I could hear more sirens.
A fire engine followed by an ambulance.
Pony started jogging a little as they were now coming from behind and I was panicking thinking they weren't going to see us we had just gone round a bend. Turned into some body's drive just as the fire truck saw us, the fire engine turned all sirens and lights off and slowed right down. All the men in the back were shouting thank you to me with thumbs up. The ambulance also turned off sirens and lights and passed slowly, and the passenger had thumbs up to me too.
The thank you is to all the crews for being so considerate when they were on their way to a horrific car accident about 5-10 minutes (depends how quick you drive!!) down the road.
After I'd got back to the yard I could hear more emergency vehicles on the way to the scene, and the air ambulance flew over, circled and landed in a field over the road from the yard.
From what I have hear 3 lads were upside down in an old mini in a ditch. Saw the air ambulance take off and belt over towards Birmingham QE TWO hours later. Best wishes to the family and friends and the lads involved int he accident.
I'd also like to say a thank you to K pony for being so well behaved. She was good as gold considering, and got a very big cuddle and lots of treats when we got back.
So yes, thank you west midlands and warwickshire emergency services, myself and the pony are very grateful!
If anybody knows the men or women in this region of the emergency services (fire, ambulance or police) then please pass on my thanks. I was the girl on the black pony!
