Saskia SASKIA I hope you get your fjord ,im sure driving is a good idea. a few years ago i gave my friend lynn some money so should could buy a shetland we both wanted to rescue from the meat sales,my father would have gone crazy if i had bought it. I know it was wrong but by the time my dad noticed that billy lived with my other shetland and not lynns,the whole family had fallen for billy including my dad he takes bill for walks,well they dont get far dad lets him eat grass on the way. its a holiday this weekend over here ,so i will let you know about fjords/highlands next week, i might as well give you the correct info. (i use a computer at work for e mails) i have a friend in scotland ,a highland breeder her horses are mostly dunn like fjords , fjords were used on the highland stud book Im going to a show on sunday ,it has world breed classes, in-hand,ridden and driving. My friend sharon is travelling up from the midlands with her stallion Erik so it will be good ,two fjords in one show a very rare sight. I m sorry if my mail arrives oddly, i can not type . well im not sure what most of the keys are for?? HAPPY FJORDING FIONA, BULLER, BILLY AND SADIE Sunny and warm in yorkshire
