Mid June - Lush Affair

Camping Village

Jane, from The Grange, gets a conducted tour of the camping facilities springing up like mushrooms in the fields we drive in.

This week Lush cosmetics firm has been on site erecting a vast array of tents end huge marquees in preparation for a week of corporate activity (the only way I can describe it just now) with some 600 business delegates from all over the world we understand! It is a huge affair, and it gives the horses a lot of interesting flapping canvas to brighten the drives we do in the fields, but they are quite unperturbed by all this activity.

The horses have had to give up their grazing area for campers, but we are fortunate to have alternative areas with plenty of grass, so they are very happy to go somewhere with fresh grazing!

A Wedding

Marmite gets a preparatory wash & shampoo

Marmite with his wardrobe team, Gill, Jane & Karen.

Ready for the Bride & Groom with Wally & Denise.

On Saturday 18th June a carriage drive for a wedding at Holton Lee was arranged for Marmite. A lot of work goes in to preparing for the day and a dedicated team of Jane, Gill, & Karen turned out on Saturday morning to Help Wally & Denise to prepare Marmite and carriage for a smart turnout.
All the hard work was well worthwhile for the admiration and pleasure shown by the bride and groom and members of the wedding party that were celebrating at Holton Lee, not to mention the generous three figure donation that goes into our funds.
