Forewarned is forearmed................
I thought I would just let you know so that you can maybe warn people. I received a phone call this morning from friends who are farmers (and have Shetlands) to say that they had a visit from the Police last night. The Police were going around all the farmers in the immediate area to warn them that travellers have moved into a field at Willerby this is between Hull and Bishop Burton, where the Breed Show was held last year. Apparently, the Police said there are about 50 travellers and my friends should keep an eye on their diesel and any scrap metal (she said the Police didnt mention ponies). I have just taken a drive past where these travellers are (they are only about a mile and a half up the road from where we live) but couldnt see very much for the hedges but, what I did see, is that they have a grey horse trailer. This may mean nothing but, for anyone in this area, it may be best to be vigilant.
