Re: Dose anyone know this company MASTER OF THE MEWS
Hi,
In answer to the question, back in 2010 I used a "Birds of Prey" display Company who came from Southern Britain. Think the chap sold his birds off, and went back to working at a "proper job" as the L/H business did'nt pay enough to keep him solvent

Hi Cat,
When I was approached by Martyn Smith (WoTR Fed Horse), he told me it was a full Fed Event.
Best check this detail out with him, but I'm working on the information that was past onto me by Martyn, in that this was a full Fed turnout Event.
