    (Which one’s which Richie – just kidding mate!) Nice to see you out and about and enjoying the summer. It’s a fair cry from the Peak District and the 4 layers of clothing required for the arctic cold conditions!

  • richiedean replied

    Well, come rain or shine, I’ll be out there Stuart ….. !!

  • richiedean replied

    They dont stay still for long Jan, thats why their legs are so short ….. :))

    OMG….you must have loved being near those sweet little ponies…..
    I wouldn’t have wanted to leave :))
    Really a great shot Richie!!!

  • richiedean replied

    I hung around for quite a while I must admit,
    the little brown one will surely have a little one of her own soon, she was getting a lot of attention from the black stallion hiding behind her ..
    Thank you Nori …....... :))

    and what a lovely shot…..I am a fan of these miniature horses….... even had some in my herd that were imported from your country…...
    They are such personable, lovable little characters…..

  • richiedean replied

    This little brown filly was looking for protection i reckon, .... she kept close to me when the black stallion was nearby !!
    Thank you Wendy ….... :))
