We have had a wonderful time in Holland at the stallion assessment and as usual their hospitality was fantastic, the show was a huge success for them and we look forward to a return trip next year .

We have also had some news about Fergus, which we feel needs a special page .....

On Sunday we had a visit from Kirsten og Johannes Nielsen to look at our ponies
and they have bought Lille Rosendals Elizabeth.

We also had a call from Karin and Karina Laursen wishing to buy Lille Rosendals Charlie.
They have been looking for a pony to match Gaetes Jacob their vallak so Karina can drive him in pairs
and Charlie fits the bill.
We are thrilled to have found two fantastic homes for our ponies and we wish them all success in the future

What a week!!
It all started last Monday when Ivan and I travelled to Amsterdam (Ijmuden) and
sailed to Newcastle UK . We then drove on Tuesday to Aberdeen and sailed to Lerwick,
arriving on Wednesday morning !! We then proceeded to pack up my Mum and the house in Shetland,
which took 3 days and on Friday we 3 sailed back from Lerwick via Aberdeen to Newcastle
and to Holland and finally arrived back at Lille Rosendal on Sunday evening around 21-00 !!!
It was a journey of many stories and I am sure when we meet we will fill in all the details for you !
Just to say my Mum now lives in Denmark and if any one is looking for a house in Shetland I know of one for sale!!!!

Many many thanks to Karin and family for looking after everything here whilst we were away!

Our sad news, because nothing ever goes smoothly
Karin phoned us on Thursday to tell us that Geldron Quaver (Daisy) had lost her foal. she was 2 months early,
it was a beautiful grey colt (just what we had ordered)
Daisy has not fully recovered and we called the vet on Sunday and again on Monday. He flushed her out both times and she has antibiotics and an appetite enhancer but seems to be struggling to get over it.
She is stabled with the expectant mares at night and we have the camera on her.
her appetite seems to be better tonight, so more as she progresses.

And finally
we have a new stallion at Lille Rosendal
Charlottenlunds Winston has joined our boys !
photographs and his own page soon.

The Hingstekåring 2010 is over and it was wonderful to see so many members and ponies there.
Judges Doreen Tindale & Pat Renwick were joined in the ring by Steve Rendall, a representative of the Pony Breeders of Shetland, he had come to see how Denmark does the Stallion Evaluation.
They had a long day and Doreen and Pat were very thorough in their judging,
Champion for 2010
Sønderskov Diskovery
Tillykke Poul Jensen, Stutteri Lolholm.

Today we took Mistletoe north to Sophie and Loch Broom and visited Valiant and Lofty
who though having been castrated this morning both looked good
and will be a fantastic matching pair for Sophie to drive in the future.

Today I celebrate my birthday, another year older!!
Our weeks holiday has gone very well, too fast but then holidays always do!
The youngstock are now in their summer paddocks, Tan & Cracker are with their mares and tomorrow will see Winston & Eddi with theirs.
We have measured all the youngstock and put the heights on their pages.

Dominique has moved to her new home with Anja and we wish them great success.
