Sam and Beano


Do you know how old Shetland ponies live? I don't either, but Beano is 44! He came to us when my daughter Moira was young, and has lived with several families all over northern Scotland since then. We found him recently at Upper Breakish on Skye. Moira's son Sam and I have been visiting him and I am delighted to see him again. He came immediately when I called - you would have thought he remembered the voice - maybe he did!
He is very spry, though we have not seen him trotting or getting up any speed - don't blame him!
