Welcome to the world

BRUNO

***  Told by Bubbles  ***

On June the 21st. 2000 Little Bruno burst into the world and immediately fell head first into the ditch! We'd all over slept that morning including Robbie the Rooster who was our alarm clock, and Sally the Swan who was a regular visitor.

Robbie the rooster

Even the ponies had over slept

Sally the Swan

Mum came running out knowing that Fairytale was due to have her foal within the next few days.

 She went straight into the field as all the other ponies were just waking up and could see Fairytale down the bottom cantering backwards and forwards along the side of the ditch looking very worried.

Help! Where am I ?

Mum rushed down to see what had happened and Fairytale immediately showed her that baby had fallen into the ditch. He had somehow slipped under the electric fencing which was obviously too high.

Mum jumped straight in and picked it up and scrambled back out with it in her arms and handed it to Fairytale but not before giving it a kiss and cuddle herself and looked to see if it was a little boy or a little girl... it was a little colt.

 Fairytale was so happy and gave him a big cuddle.

Just 3 hours old


Mummy loves you Darling

A little bit tired

Six months later he'd started to fill out and was becoming very full of himself.
I thought he had the measles because he was covered in spots
But Mum said : "Ponies can't get the measles. Silly me!"
