In addition to the general business of the AGM there will be lots of interesting things to do and see:

• A Christmas bring and buy bazaar, aimed at all our “crafty” and otherwise talented IHSGB members who would like to bring their homemade arts, crafts, Christmas cards, produce etc. for sale. Ideal Christmas presents! Please come and take the opportunity to sell your wares!
• A talk on Fi Pugh’s personal perspective of training horses, with videos and pictures.
• Evening meal: a table at the local pub, just 5 minutes’ walk from the village hall, is booked for Saturday evening at 1900 – we shall need numbers in advance. The pub is also open at lunchtime for those who may arrive early and wish to eat before the meeting.
• Sunday at 1030: – a practical, ridden demo at Oldhill’s Icelandics, home to Fi Pugh, to complement her talk on Saturday. There will be refreshments at Ian & Fi’s house afterwards for anyone who wishes to stay.

We look forward to seeing you there!
