Thank you to everyone who came to the Horses' Christmas party! The horses thoroughly enjoyed getting their treats. They are all fast asleep in their stables with full tummies.

Thank you also to everyone who assisted with the party - i.e. those who chopped up the apples, carrots and turnips and helped with dishing out the snacks.

Have a very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!.

Marianne, Philip and the Shieldbank Team
