Disappearing Ponies
Dagmar is seriously pleased when ponies arrive in the field next to her paddock. And even more pleased when she gets to naming them. Holly Brookfield is planning to launch her pony sanctuary, which turns out to be harder than she thought. This story also shows that being disabled can be enabling.
Amy has lots of problems, including Blister! She enjoys Clown even though he likes to live up to his name. Maybe he will become a reformed character. We'll see...
