THEY say all good things must come to an end and so it proved at the recent Ballymacad Foxhounds Puppy Show where a very special presentation was made to mark the enormous contribution of retiring hunt stalwarts Thosh Kellett and Jim Stevenson.

On hand to make the presentations to the retiring joint-masters Thosh Kellett and Jim Stevenson was Ballymacads’ chairman Ken Farrelly.

Thosh and Jim have served the Co Westmeath hunt tirelessly since 1993 and now retire after an incredible 27 years at the helm. Their huge contribution to the Ballymacads over the decades has been a rock for the popular hunt to grow in strength and numbers.

Pony Tales joins with all the Ballymacad well-wishers to wish these two gentlemen all the very best in their well-earned retirement.
