Sorry it's taken a few days to do this, I'm still a bit under the weather and attempting to catch up all the work that should have been done over the last few weeks whilst I was ill!!
Anyway full photographs are here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10154938696160155.1073742030.689360154&type=1&l=3dd3265db2
It was a really great day, despite feeling like death. The toasted sandwiches next door were a particular highlight!!!
Here are some selected photos from the day, I didn't take very many I'm afraid!

Say Hello to Goose & Mountain
Are my model horse names getting worse? Most probably.
Anyway, first up is CRS The Man On The Mountain (Mountain). I won him in the raffle at OMG Orange. He's really pretty :D

I really love winning random Breyers in raffles. They are often models I'd never have gone out and actively bought but they add to the collection, and some of them are so lovely in the flesh. This guy is definitely an example. I also think he is my first plaited SJW, I'll need to check, but pretty sure everyone else has long manes!
And secondly is CRS Grey Goose

Goose was my Christmas present from Brendon and is RubberNed number 17. I'm loving these little Nedlets, they are so cute!
