Horses for Courses....

How time flyes, it seems like only yesterday that Kyle was getting ready for Bonchester Rideout and already it was the last ride to Denholm checking the town bounderies before next weeks big celebrations up 'the mair'. For one reason or another Kyle has had a few different steeds already this year, on Saturday he rode young Beauty (we have an old Beauty too). She is a bit too small for Kyle now really, this was a farewell ride...






Here is a short video of the horses leaving town, there were just over 220 horses...


















On Sunday we loaded Beauty into the trailer and headed for Appleby Horse Fair to the largest annual gathering of Gypsies and Travellers in Europe.



Beauty is a pretty pony not your usual sober, calm cob but a little bit bouncy, a good jumper......she is now off on a new adventure to a new home....





Washing and swimming horses in the river...




It was a beautiful summers day, crowds of people and lots of horse and riders enjoying themselves...
