Thank you Laura!! I was blown away by how beautiful all the horses were! The palomino dressage horse was my favorite, but I would have been happy with any of them!
And thanks all! I’m so excited to see him in person! And in terms of if it’s easier to get an early horse or a late horse, I haven’t figured that out yet but it worked out for me this time. The other nice thing about an early horse this time around was that I got to watch and see what everyone else got, at least until the pets frenzy started!

This is a fab idea! It’s lovely to see more posts on here. I always feel like I have to post on Facebook more but would like to come away from that side of it all.
Thanks Laura for a super batch of spares, it was so lovely looking at them all and hearing what everyone has! I managed to get the star dappled Connemara which I’m pleased with!

Aren't you just amazed by Laura, creating such a wonderfully diverse range of spares for us to drool over? And how we all have different favourites? I had 5 equal favourites, I was lucky enough to win one of them, and my niece another 💜💜💜

Yes, thanks to you for the effort in making the spares and organising the sales night - it's really lovely to feel like we're taking part in something together, like the sales scrum round the table at a live show : although the main aim is to get hold of something exciting to take home ourselves, there's also the community aspect of seeing who bought what, congratulating people who picked up the ones we liked or something they really loved, commiserating with anyone who missed out, and discussing future orders of certain colours or pets which are in somebody else's hands It was so nice to see so much activity and chatter on the forum last night, although Facebook is fine, I do miss the activity on the forum, it did always feel much more of a community thing, who knows maybe this will revitalise it!

Thank you so much Laura for organising all of this and for all your hard work creating such stunning models. I really loved being part of the thrill of it all and I also hope the forum becomes more active. I am delighted with my pet haul!

Thank you Laura! While I didn't buy any of the horses, I'm definitely revising my wishlist! 😃

I'm plotting tack making and plaiting techniques for my spare. Because he's a colour his mould's official breed doesn't come in, I'm going to swap him from being a Lipizzaner to either a Spanish Andalusian or Portuguese Lusitano - I'll decide when he gets here, and name him in the right language once I've made up my mind! But for now I'm looking at lots of pretty Iberian horse photos online, learning about the decorative tack traditions, and pondering whether do a running braid down one side of the neck, or whether to part it down the middle and have braiding both sides. With little bows on the ends! I'm going to have fun with this one

It’s lovely to see people using the forum again but one thing I really miss is the photo stories people used to post. I’m going to have to make some space to set up my stables again to start making some I reckon
