      APPLEBY FAIR PHOTOS
      An awesome trip was had to the fair. Meeting heaps of Gypsy/Traveler/Romany people and also many American friends I had only met previously met on the internet. Even met a couple of Aussies and a Kiwi! Photographed hundreds of horses and saw plenty I'd love to bring home. From the hustle and bustle of the fair to quiet paddocks where prized mares and fillies run with stallions. I saw them everywhere!! Everyone looked after me and were only too happy to show me their horses. I enjoyed rides in carts and enjoyed a quiet beer or wine with many. A special thanks Deirdre and Brian Cash from Clononeen, Amy and Albert Coates and of course James and Christine Taylor. For giving me homes to stay in, showing me around horses or the fair and generally making me feel welcome. Thanks also to the many others whose company I enjoyed, and the people who make these horses their life.

      Please ask permission before using photos elsewhere. Thanks!
