First of all thank you guys very much for the response to the calendars and Christmas adoption appeal, it really helped get us through December and the beginning of January, but unfortunately things are still very quiet!

So Sevilano, Espanyola, Paloma; David and Platero went there. Then Ginny who gave birth to Ozzie in March 2012 went to a local home after her foal had been weaned.

This helped a little as it has reduced our monthly feed bill, and a lovely lady donated the money for a 6 week supply of Hay and a months rent. So just as we thought things where getting better we had some news from the town hall!
