Out Of Action!

Sorry for the delay in blogging everyone!  Not only has there been a lot going on, Faye's been out of action with an ear infection...and now poor Margaret's out of action with a cold - we hope you feel better soon Margaret!  This meant that unfortunately we couldn't make it to our last fundraiser of the year at Eggesford...but thankfully we still have lots of "thank you"s to mention!

Firstly, a big thank you to Hazel-Ann who has put a lot of time and effort into restoring (or should that be rehabbing?) and decorating Jenny's rocking horse that was donated to raise funds for the ponies.  It must have taken a lot of work - including restoring the mane and tail...which is now made of real horse hair (which Jane's horses very kindly donated when having a trim!)!

Thank you to Tattwa, Penny, Liz, Pamela, David and Kaye, Graham, and "The Dartmoor Pixie" for their donations for the ponies - it's so kind of you and we really appreciate your help...a big thank you from all of us...

...And Well Done to everyone who's been using Easyfundraising when ordering their Christmas purchases online! Since the newsletter was issued we've raised an extra £14 and I know there's still some more to arrive...thank you!

Faye would like to thank Margaret, Catherine, and Victoria for stepping in to look after the ponies whilst she recovered from being ill!  Having been away for just a couple of days it's amazing how much the landscape has changed - it now looks properly wintry - the vegetation looks bare, the mud is starting to take hold and the ponies are getting hungry, coming back from the field in the middle of the day...time to start laying on some extra hay rations......ponies are looking great though!
