This was my horse Dobbin at Kielder. It was the very first time I had ever been on a horse and he was so friendly. It was a place for the Disabled called Kielder outside of Newcastle. The horse could tell that I was frightened. This was about six years ago; the last holiday I have had.

 

After the day on the horse I went abseiling at Kielder as I said. It is lovely for the Disabled as it gives them a chance to do things and compete with ordinary people. I got a hand to the top and to stand and then they put a safety belt around my waist and I stood up and went over the side. It was a very enjoyable experience.
