Thanks Chris Drysdale Morris for my neigh nomination. Ill start with Skippy, my first love, an exmoor cross who bucked unless on the lead rein. I came off lead rein on him and fell off 4 times that lesson. I loved that little pony and had to go to a Uni interview the day after he was shot. I have to mention Heidi - everyone who knew her hated her. I did get why but I loved her anyway! She broke many bones in many people but I got off relatively easy. I think I learned more about patience and tolerance from that 11hh midget than any others. Duggan - not mine, but Mandy Tessys. I adored the great big lumbering mass that he was. My lovely Ruby - the most beautiful horse I know, my expensive field ornament!!! After retirement before the age of 4, this just might be her year, now aged 10 - watch this space. And my final one, the absolute love of my life, Stanley. I still struggle to believe some days that hes all mine and has been my pride and joy since he came home aged 6 months. Like all the best love stories I could kill him some days, but I understand him and he understands me better than anyone. I nominate Wendy - Jim Carolan and Caroline Middleton for their horse loves!!
