Hi
We keep our horses in the Leedstown area.
Overnight, last night, someone entered one of the fields, plaited up one horse(gypsy cob type) and removed all the plaits from an id x tb.
No one was seen, but action has been taken to make removal of any horses very difficult.

Anyone locally had anything similar occur?????

No probs my way, but will pass it on. Hope you have no more trouble.

Too close to me for comfort! But our lot all boring bays and definitely not plaited - especially not the hogged one... Will check again later...

Aha! Rode past these guys on a wide verge yesterday near Connor. Gave the "mum" a wave and she and the children waved back. 3 chunky coblets in very robust condition, 1 in its own mini paddock! All very clean and tidy, hope it's the same when they've left as there are travellers in Cornwall that give the others a bad name, would be nice to see a positive example.
