This is a rocking horse rescued and revamped to give an old nag a new lease of life.

If only Susan!
Congtratulations on the win much...
I was thinking about your horse when i saw the Apprentice the other day. You should definitely try and start a sideline - doubt if it will make you a millionaire but unfortunately labours of love rarely do.

Golly! Thank you so much for all the words of support. I really hope i can carry on as enjoyed this one so much. You've all charged me up to continue and got me thinking something I just made for my little girl might be interesting to others. Thanks so much again for all the encouragement and thank you living etc for choosing our horse to win. All my very best Kate
