ONE positive consequence for me about the postponed sale next week in Doncaster is that I will be at home on Tuesday. This is the 10th anniversary of the death of our daughter Katie from leukaemia and it would certainly have been a hard day to be away from the family.

You never really get over something like this but you can get through it, and we have been hugely supported by so many people, including plenty in the horse world, for which I will always be most grateful.
