The next batch of spares are almost ready and will be being sold on Sunday 1st June at around 7.30pm; they will be put up for sale on the this forum only and are on a 'first come first served' basis as before, with anyone that is interested putting a 'buy' comment underneath the model they would like, I'll put another reminder up nearer the time with more information as to how to buy them.

Ok, so did everyone get something they liked?  (I bumped the poor unwanted bay Mule from a couple of batches ago so he doesn't get completely forgotten about at the bottom of the pile!) I'd been watching the forum like a hawk for hours (just in case) and ended up getting distracted by something else and missed out on my favourites! Those two Welsh Cobs are now on my 'to steal' list, especially that gorgeous dapple grey! I've wanted a liver chestnut for AGES and I've only got one Arab Stallion so now I've got the best of both worlds! |

I did! My planned target for this batch was a mum for my donkey foal from the last batch, and that's exactly what I managed to get - she's skewbald not brown like him, but her patch bits ARE brown, so she's a believable mum if I say daddy was solid-coloured, heh I'd have loved the dun dartmoor or dappled welsh cob, but they went before I could get my word in edgeways  |

You'll just need a solid jack now to complete the family.  I was about ten minutes late for the welsh cob so I wasn't even close, lo. I had rather hoped for a welsh pony of some kind but I think I'll be more than happy with my arab. (and I'm super tempted to order a welshie in liver chestnut now too...hmmm...) |

Oh yes I am pleased. Especially the donk foal because he can be a matching foal for my existing donkey.

I completely forgot about it when the time came though I had been reminding myself all day !
Luckily neither of the donkey foals match any of my jennies but there were some really nice ones I am kicking myself for missing.

I treated myself to the piebald dropped head hunter. Baby Robyn insisted on that one as she loves her black and white cloth book and wanted Mummy to have a new horsey for her to look at. Plus a little cat companion in the new mould, yay!

Well done everyone! I was surprised to find that there were three gorgeous cobs left at least an hour after (I was recording a track for Eric Whitacre's Virtual Youth Choir) and I was very lucky to buy the blue roan one.

Thank you so much to everyone for another really exciting spares night! I hope everyone got more or less what they were after and if not please remember we are now taking orders, so you can always message me if there's something you can't live without; there weren't quite as many in tonight batch as I have been inundated with orders for donkey foals and matching donkey mums, in fact the workshop is starting to resemble a donkey sanctuary  .
It might take me a day to get around to messaging everyone, so please keep an eye on your inboxes and thank you again for your continued support  . |

Plus a little cat companion in the new mould, yay! Lydia that's shocking excuse lol!!!! Robyn is obviously going to be your Julip partner in crime I think that Hunter was my favourite (apart from the dark donkey foal). I treated myself to a little dog, as I have 2 donkey foals on order yay! |

As usual my internet played up a bit but was surprised that the gorgeous skewbald cob (and I mean gorgeous ) if I had money I'd have taken him.
I decided to get the working hunter as I didn't have one in that mould at all plus he's colours are nice and I've a yearling I think will look nice with him.
I certainly be ordering some of those greys in the future stunning!
I was tempted by some pretty cats and dogs but managed to wait (always the next batch).

I had countless internet issues with pages not loading, then not having me logged in when they did load, so I missed out on everything. It's just as well as now I can save up for another special order or to grab a couple spares next month. I'm not usually a fan of roans, but the ones in the last couple of batches have been lovely. EG--I almost went for that Arab. It's such a nice color, and I want someone I can make fancy Arab halters for. |
