Bryn Glas

 Bryn is a Welsh Cob  pony  and justr wants to  clip  clop  around from  cache to  cache safely.

He is very shiny  and covered in  gems, he has been  beautifully  groomed too.

When  caching  recently  I came across a field  full of frisky  ponies and this amazing  keyring  reminded me of them. They seemed very  proud and full of energy.

So  to  travel safely  and maybe have a photo or two  taken  along  the journey is all I ask.

If taken  to  events please ensure Bryn is logged both in  and out correctly  as far too many bugs have gone to meets and then  have vanishe without trace,  thanks.

Bryn Glas means blue hill in  Welsh,  so Bryn seemed just the correct name for this little  fellow. He is ready  for any  adventure,  so please look  after him  for me please.

I will  add a bit of information  about Welsh ponies to  add a bit of interest.

Native ponies existed in Wales before 1600 BC, and a Welsh-type cob was known as early as the Middle Ages. They were influenced by the Arabian horse, and possibly also by the Thoroughbred and the Hackney horse. In 1901, the first stud book for the Welsh breeds was established in the United Kingdom, and in 1907 another registry was established in the United States. Interest in the breed declined during the Great Depression, but revived in the 1950s.Throughout their history, the Welsh breeds have had many uses, including as a cavalry horse, a pit pony, and as a working animal on farms.

Today, the modern Welsh Pony and Cob breeds are used for many equestrian competitive disciplines, including showing, jumping and driving, as well as for pleasure riding, trekking and trail riding. The smaller types are popular children's ponies. The Welsh also crosses well with many other breeds and has influenced the development of many British and American horse and pony breeds.

Please look  after Bryn  for me,  enjoy WW
