At least I know where to go looking at the weekend when I'm in Exmoor to see if I can find his LAND and get a sneak at his POND!! |

| | | re: Johny Kingdom I've had a look at his Myspace page and with the colours, I found it a bit difficult to read unless I need some new reading specs of course  |

| | | re: Johny Kingdom God that background (on Myspace) is truly awful. Someone should tell him to get rid of the camo if he wants anyone to read it.
By the way Stewy... you look remarkably like him in your avatar! Are you sure you aren't Mr Kingdom masquerading as a WAB member?

| | | re: Johny Kingdom Really good and entertaining episode tonight!. I even got a bit tearful about Tony....but i blame that on a lack of sleep last night worrying about my presentation today on Scottish Wildcats (Which i absolutely nailed by the way!....top of the class me!)

| | | re: Johny Kingdom Very sad about Tony but good to see Johnny looking out for old Albert.
He was made up having a heron on his LAAAND by his POOOND! |

| | | re: Johny Kingdom The programme handled the death of Tony Thorne very sensitively and I thought Johnnys rection was very moving and it was nice that he had had him on his laaand, in his hiiide and had such an enjoyable time with him and Albert as was shown his show a couple of weeks ago.
He handled the wild Exmoor pony like an expert seeing as he was previously scared of horses, although having just heard the news about Tony the pony could have sensed his mood as Johnny was perhaps not so 'highly strung' as he usually is, it can be difficult getting them to accept you at first as I found out with a couple of unbroken Shetlands and had the bruises to prove it. His maiden micolight flight was hilarious, he took longer to get his suit on than the flight itself  and it was a wonder he didn't unbalance it leaning out so far with his camera and when he said he'd taken his Whiskey with him (to calm his nerves) but couldn't get it out of his pocket really made me laugh.
Congratulations Dan, tick and a gold star for you  |

| | | re: Johny Kingdom Great episode..Very moving.
Horses are wonderful when you are upset they have a very calming affect on you. As Johnny found out. The rest was as entertaining as ever..Wasn't that golden eagle wonderful.
Contrats Dan well done.  |

| | | re: Johny Kingdom This was a rather touching..Enjoyed the part with the young ponies reminded me of when we came back with a few from the Reading Horse Sales back in the seventies they had came straight from the New Forest..patience, dedication and repect was needed towards these rather untrusting little ponies but it always paid off...I found that Johnny handled his time with that pony very well..

| | | re: Johny Kingdom Perhaps with the increasing popularity of the programme they want to make it last longer, as they dropped from two programmes to one last week, (if you see what I mean):rolleyes |
