Sign in to add a tributeI just wanted to say how very sorry I was to read of Mick's passing. I'm now 71; but I will always have many happy memories of learning to ride at Grovely in the early-mid 1960s. My favourite horse was Minstrel, who I loved dearly and who I always asked to ride if he was available. I also remember Midnight, Gypsy and Kilbride; and my friend remembers Danny, Sweep and Bluebell. You could have a half-hour lesson in the ring, or an hour's ride up into the woods. I also remember doing the Pony Club tests, learning to put the tack on, brushing the horses and the learning the right way to lift a hoof ...! I remember that Mick was always so kind and patient and clearly very much loved all the horses.
I'm sorry, I'm not able to make the Celebration of her life today, but I hope it goes well; and I'm sure there will be many people there, who, like me, treasure many happy memories of Mick.
With very best wishes ,
Denise Mitchell
