Seamus (30s) has been attending for a number of years and James is outfitted by Sylvia Strang-Parsloe for the occasion. He has lived all his life at Woodbury and keeps in the best of health with a carpeted shelter, regular farrier visits and diet watched by Sylvia and John Parsloe.

Cotswold Minnie Moppet carries ‘Mary’ (Ella Sugrue) down at Christmas On The Bay, an evening event held at Timaru to raise money for a new MRI scanner. The children from Bluestone School sang ‘Little Donkey’. Moppet was led by Nick O'Brien and following was Moppet's daughter Cotswold Lavender Rose led by Lea Hullett. After walking up and down while the children sang, the donkeys were surrounded by children on the green and booklets with a donkey story were handed out. Photo: Shane Sugrue.
