9th July, 2010 You've been fired










Today I was joined by Nikki, Kate, Jane and the usual crew for the Animal Rescue Team Practice event. This time it was a real epic as it involved the paramedics as well as the fireteam. Even the vet was real as Amy was there from The Barn. Much as this is tremendous fun, it is also deadly serious, and today the tension was real as we were also being filmed. The scenario included two horses being trapped, one between tree trunks and another in a barbed wire fence with a third standing fairly steadily. Not only was Jenny unconscious and Jane hysterical, Kate was "accidentally" stabbed with horse sedative. I played a journalist, complete with microphone, whose job it was to be a complete pest.
