is up and running  Thnks to siglavys comment on the thread about Matthew doing agility and her suggestion to save my legs and his wheels etc .......... frenchie and kas invited me do a presentation while at the rushers cross clinic about the funbug and what matthew (and others that visit the horses) could benefit from an adapted carriage. I showed this video ....... well after an abortive attempt to play the dvd we eventually got it on you tube  ..... and some pics of my friends as a result steve and irena will be taking the file of pics and info (along with the computer to watch the video on  ) round all the clinics.]] breakfast is organising a website ....with silversand and tricia days EAQ websites offering to link to with theirs  some people have already donated cash / cheques including silversand and EQA with others pledging to do so via bank transfer. Others are dontating items to auction / sell. There were a few emotional moments, the tissues came in handy The Funbug Fund bank account is now open I cant say Thank you enough to everyone  . |

brilliant! What a fantastic achievement, when you see it all together in one video like that. The funbug looks great! |

Modified and pinned Laura! I know that there has also been a donation or two from 'Splories - thanks, you know who you are. It took one evening to raise nearly £5k for EMW at the Spring Ball, so I'm sure we can get there for the Fun Bug by the end of the clinic season. |

Copy the location of your video from the address bar. When you're posting the message, click on the Tube icon up above where the tags are. Past the address in between the two sets of square brackets. I can't show it exactly because it will try to post a link, but you paste in between ][

Have smiled, sobbed, laughed, cried and nearly felt my heart burst with pride watching the video Laura. When you strip everything away THIS is such a perfect example of the incredible, unique and magical relationships horses and their humans can have.
Good luck to The Funbug Fund, I somehow don't think it will be too long before the goal is reached

There was an emotional viewing at the clinic. When he thought everyone wasn't watching I saw Steve appeared to have something in his eye. Hopefully Laura has connected with some people who can help her to get there, I think it is going to happen. |

Aw mate what a lovely video. Perhaps I can offer a horsey/coastal holiday in Devon towards the fund if you are doing an auction/raffle at some point.
I will of course spread the word, keep it up mate

wel lwe are booked in to go to bennington carriges "try driving" day cos amanda will have one of her adapted funbugs there ...... we are having a lesson so both matt and I can try it and we can pick everyones brains. sue mart was absolutely wonderful person to talk to and she says amanda has suggested alterations to make things easier and safer ... we will get all that feedback too when we go there. If there are no objections from donors I will take the cost of the assessment from the fund as its relevant imo ...., we will pay the petrol there and back though hope the website will get off the ground soon....... |
