Hi everybody. I am a new forum member from the Order of the Boar jousting/living history group based in New Zealand. This looks like an excellent forum!We have a team of 6 "destriers" and rather than clogging up this message with images of all of them you can view them at: http://www.jousting.co.nz/our_horses.htm -------------------- URL=http://www.jousting.co.nz Facebook [URL=http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1290562306]

Hi;A few shots of the unit I belong to at the battle of Hastings reenactment. Slightly out of period, but I figured it was worth posting anyway. All the horses are from Janet Rogers, who provides a lot of horses for film and TV as well as reenactment. Oh, and the headlong charge isn't either authentic or the way we move around the feild - it's a posed shot for a local newspaper taken off the feild. Neil

This could be a bad omen, but I feel I must share this with you. Our new prospect, coming to live with us from tomorrow all going well. Rising 5, 14h2 highland Picture doesn't do him justice. Usually have mares, but have gone for a gelding this time. His name is LOMOND OF ALLTNACAILLEACH, we're just trying to come up with a shorter one that we can shout across the fields. Cheers all, Andy

Until those eyes fire up with pleasure at the charge...Brenna -------------------- Where in this world can man find nobility without pride, friendship without envy, beauty without vanity? Here, where grace is laced with muscle, and strength by gentleness confined. He serves without servility; he has fought without enmity. There is nothing so powerful, nothing less violent; there is nothing so quick, nothing so patient. England's past has been borne on his back. All our history is his industry: we are his heirs, he is our inheritance. Ladies and gentlemen: The Horse! - Robert Duncan's "Tribute to the Horse"
