We are very proud to say we have taken delivery of the most beautiful Alamo Lough today and of course the equally gorgeous Tara (who remains MFH's).

A massive thanks to Maesfen (MFH) for her, we have her on breeding loan which has been in the pipeline for quite a while, and now she is finally here.

Freda will be going to Spyder.

Photo's tomorrow.

As if we would!! Oh, go on then.....!!

Alec.

Ps, we now have a delightful filly foal, the first for Curtis, and she's stunning. The poor recip mare, Monte Mayor Park, rather struggled with this huge foal, and it's thanks to the dedication of Sallyf that we now have a live mare, and foal. I suspect that both Sally and Monte were rather knocked about by the foaling, but both will survive.

Simsar, I apologise for the hijack (honestly I do:o:D) a.

Congratulations Alec, sounds very nice and a big well done to Sallyf & co for making it possible. You know we need pics of course, don't think we'll let you get away with it.

Well done all concerned Alec, Sally, all at Groomsbridge.
 
MFH an update, Spyder is loved up, I thought he had a thing for Ginge (who he has covered, waiting for scan next week) but Noooo he is besotted.
Our saddle fitter the best saddle fitter in the world Elli Martin came today to see Spyder and she loved her and then Ginge my lovely friend and rider came and loved her more, so she has a fan club already, loving Tara too of course. xx
 
Sorry had major car trouble this morning had to get Ginge to give me a lift and then Ellie has lent me her car how sweet is she. Tonight I promise.
 
I feel rather guilty for piggy backing onto this thread, but our mare and foal will come home on Saturday, and I'll have to e/mail the pics to Simsar, talk to them nicely, and promising anything, get them to post on my behalf!! :o:o

Alec.

ps. I hope that's ok S&S? a.

Only 17?? Don't think that's enough yet, I'm sure you could do with another one:D Who wants lots of sleep and money in the bank account anyway, totally overrated in my opinion:cool:

Congrats on the new girls though;)

We had a dabble at top end foreign last year, but alas it wasn't mean't to be, so she is now a happy hacker with friends of ours. This is another mare gifted to us from the lovely Meike Weber, both the same horse.

Ohhhh, never had a proper look at those before, have you seen all her grandchildren? Bless her little cotton sox, I especially like Baskir, he looks very much like granny:) Thanks for the link!!
 
So this is the new girl in town, a massive thanks to Maesfen.

They're gonna fade away in that little patch, can't you give them more?

So glad to see they're settling in, thanks for those. Wish I had done something about that mane though.........

HA!! In Norfolk, when we see grass such as that, the cry goes up, "Blimey, they haven't got much to go at, have they?" :rolleyes: Poor horses. :D

I wouldn't worry to much about her mane, she's a very tidy mare. Look at the girth on her. Look at her dapples. A proper horse!! :cool:

Alec.
