The oldest horse in the world?

I was joined this morning by Fran Smith from the Remus Memorial Horse Sanctuary. As well as explaining how the Sanctuary came about and what it does, Fran also talked about Shayne, who – at the incredible age of 51 – is possibly the oldest horse in the world! Fran explained that Shayne has become quite a male diva as a result of worldwide media attention, and he’s even got a girlfriend! Unfortunately Remus’ Open Day planned for next weekend has been cancelled, but you can still go along and meet him at the next one, on 3rd June. Remus is always pleased to welcome volunteers to help keep the work going, and even if you can only spare a little time they’d love to hear from you – contact them via the website.[audio:https://www.phoenixfm.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Feelgood-Saturday-28-04-12-Fran-Smith.mp3|titles=Feelgood Saturday 28 04 12 Fran Smith]

Also this morning we heard a chat that that Brentwood & Ongar MP Eric Pickles had earlier in the week with Phoenix FM’s Kay Bellwood. Eric turned 60 this month, and Kay began by asking him if, when he first went into politics, he imagined that twenty years later he’d have made it into Government as Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government. Eric also talked to Kay about his many interests outside politics – including a collection of memorabilia relating to a classic comic book character![audio:https://www.phoenixfm.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Phoenix-FM-interview-with-Eric-Pickles-Kay-Bellwood-20-04-2012.mp3|titles=Phoenix FM interview with Eric Pickles (Kay Bellwood, 20-04-2012)]
