Do you mean photos of them? I can do that! All of mine are true south west horses - all the skewbalds have been born on Bodmin Moor (Peter and Tinner are Penpont ponies) and Leo comes from the furthest southerly point in Devon, bred by Coolings. They're all very sweet, live out all year round, play all day long and accept whatever I ask of them, I was impressed today to bring all four in, seperate them, and worm them all by syringe - only Harl was used to the syringe - with minimum fuss, although Leo can put his head up to the limit of my arms, I still won though!

Me on Harley, taking Tinner for his first hack out. Tinner will be backed in the next couple of months, and I'm hoping he'll be Harleys replacement in time - harl will be 21 this year.

Peter, rising three, cousin to Tinner, their dams were full sisters. Peter isn't a keeper, I just got suckered in and bought him!

This is Leo, another not a keeper. He's about 15hh now and not two years old until April, so he's going to be a big boy.

Great idea! Well I have an Exmoor, and a companion Shetland. The Exmoor I've owned since he was rising 4 and we do everything together, showing (not ridden flat though as he is to quirky in the ring) showjumping and dressage. I'm hoping to do a bit of WHP this year as well!

Thats an incredibly flattering picture of her though - it was taken just after I got her last July. Now she looks more like Manny, the mammoth from Ice Age :D

Fantastic! Love the appy in the snow! You should put it in for a photo competition IMO as this is the sort of thing that not only catches the eye but is actually a super photo in its own right. Think you might catch the judges eye if you entered it somewhere!

Sorry I have to confess to being a techo-phobe who doesn't know how to post pictures, but if anyone on here was at an equine college in the SW a few years ago they'll know my man!! Think chunky piebald with a face like a panda. If you were there, you'll know :)

I'm sure he misses her too :( The other two are being total berks at the moment :rolleyes:

SHH is on a hill in that pic, however he is somewhat bum high at the moment.

This is Shilvinghampton Rosanna May (Rosie), my Fell pony. Now age 17, I have owned her since she was rising 4. Despite being a Northern breed she was actually born in Dorset!! :D
