Today, my husband has gone with one of my brothers, a prospective purchaser, to see a Clydesdale mare away up in Speyside and it brought back memories of another memorable day I had, involving horses, away back in July 1979. My daughter, Julie, and I, still living up there and both members of the Badenoch Riding Club, joined a few others on a day's ride up into the Cairngorms. The mounts were varied, from Highland ponies to my own thoroughbred mare, Peggy and Julie's pony, Cherry. The weather was beautiful as we followed, for the most part, old tracks through some of the most stunning scenery of the area.
Our horses have long since gone but that remains one of my favourite days.
