Ok Ok, Horse stories.
I looked after the Arab stallion, Halim, that Sam Neil rode in the movie "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot"
I had showjumping and dressage lessons on Lysyn who was Gunsyn's giant half brother.( Gunsyn was very short for a racehorse )
And I had the good fortune to work as strapper for a short while for Guy Creighton, an Aussie Olympic showjumping competitor.
Young Gun competitor at the last Olympics, Rebel Morrow, grew up in Kilcoy. Her dad used to be my farrier. My horses had Olympic toenails!
