3rd May Last night we stayed at Ormskirk with Beth who was a great host, kindly supplied us with supper which was lovely...proper comfort food, much needed! Beth's parents kindly put  beds up for Abi, Trish & Carla the beds were sooo comfortable and we were also supplied with an early breakfast to keep us going. Kevin & Jane went off to stay with friends of theirs, which in actual fact were Beth's cousins. Tim stayed in the lorry and kept Wilf company whilst John & Angie stayed in their trailer. The ponies thought that night was great! Not only did they have a grass paddock, the trailer was also in the paddock which had lots of goodies in it...which they found, we were just left with the plastic bag from the herb balls and the 'think fly' dusting the tow bar of the trailer...but I don't think too much was eaten... All ponies were driven and happy as Larry, had to stop a little early...due to vehicle issues... Kevin's BIRTHDAY!......he thought he would go to visit his parents whilst he was close so the plan was he'd go to visit them in his car then pick up the Trish & Karls Jeep and tow John and Angie's trailer so everyone could get on with the trip... The phone went 'I've had an accident on the M6....I think it could be a write off' but luckily no one was hurt and Angie's underwear was all peeled off the road along with her chilli. Johns words 'at least I don't have to clean that toilet out!' No one was hurt and everyone was retrieved back with the belongings, Tim, Trish, Carla & Abi went out to look for somewhere to eat out as a Birthday treat for Kevin, must have walked a couple miles before we found some where, but we found a lush Chinese & tai place...everyone was fed and 'watered' We hope you like the meal & the little gift :)
