Her name was Annie Rhodes or Rose or similar ... DD was just talking at the time and I missed that bit!

She had some lovely weight bearing Shire Xs

Just caught the end of this - well done that man. However Davina, someone needs to give her better information - a thoroughbred shire horse? Argghh!

Must have been a brilliant experience Chunters!

Browsing the website, I loved the picture of the gentleman who was celebrating his 80th birthday on horseback with his daughters!

As I am currently in my early fifties, unfit, overweight, prostrate because of a bad back and generally in no fit state to ride atm, that story has given me something to aim for!

Ooh I have been there but it's been there longer than a year ( she needs to update her website). I was 8 weeks pregnant, sick as a dog, hadn't told my friends I was travelling with yet and had a bad back. They put me on some lovely beast that looked after me well. It was good fun (well as fun as it could be whilst throwing up). Annie is lovely.
