Did you used to ride at Limebrook? Do you remember old horses and people who are no longer at Limebrook?
Want to test your memory?
Here's some pictures of horses you may remember - if only from the names written on the tack room wall!
Any ideas?
This is a picture of Petra - the freshly painted jump in the foreground was painted by Clare herself - yes, it's a snake jump!
The snake jump again - and standing behind it is... Oliver!
And this horse is Jerry. Jerry's claim to fame is that he very convincingly played dead! He reared up in the horsebox, and collapsed over backwards onto the rear wall, he was half standing, half lying against the wall, his neck bent over looking obviously broken, and his eyes wide and staring.
As Clare ran off to make arrangements to move him (a dead horse in the car park in front of all the customers is not a sight destined to give young children nice dreams), Alan nudged the horse with his foot.
Jerry came back to life, jumped up and gave everyone around him a real shock. As Clare says, she knew he was dead! But, luckily, apparently he was not!
Here is a picture of two horses still currently at Limebrook taken in 1995. Look how spritely the young Andy looks! Andy is still working today, but is strictly limited to young children. And following him, looking as grumpy as ever is Lloyd.
Limebrook would like to express their thanks to Vicky for these pictures.
