There were no arrests or any reports of antisocial behaviour. Police and RSPCA were in attendance.
From the photos I’ve seen it was one of the better years. The police finally seem to be clamping down on antisocial behaviour from the wannabe travellers,
so maybe that’s partly why. I didn’t see many buckets of water in the photos I saw though.

One of the 2yos is related to the one we lost. We so don’t need a young one, but going to go see anyway! Anyone know what the timings are usually like? It says it starts at 11am but there is a pre sale show?

Sure there's a sale tomorrow, anyone know where? Is it online?

My favoured dealer has said he's got the perfect horse for me 'under assessment' and it'll be available at the end of the month. I'm sure I'll get the details on it after he's been to the next sales 🤣

I'm not ..officially. It would be nice to reunite them though..;)
Can we help you with this? A bit of effort on Facebook should find her. And she'll either be well loved in which case the owners may be willing to let her go, or they'll let her go for an appropriate amount (I'd be happy to help with that).

Thank you, i know the dealer who sold him wanted extortionate money (from me) considering what he went for at Brecon, I didn't know, until Mildred was home, that he had the other one or i would have haggled a deal for them both. i could approach him to see who he sold him to, but if they think you want something the price will go up, and realistically i would not pay stupid money. If he is happy in a new home i would leave him - i just don't like the thought of him being passed from dealer to dealer.
