Default Our Boy is Handsome and Gentle.
This is our boy Randy, he's a 15 year old Hanoverian gelding, we have had him now for nearly four years. He's 16 hands 2, so quite a large boy.

He is my wife's pride and joy, her escape from the day to day rat race.

I took this picture about two years ago with my old Fuji Finepix 7000, it was shot in B&W mode and is part of three that I took, there is this one, one of him with his tongue out and the other of him showing his teeth in a massive smile.

Let me know If want to see them, I can upload them for you to see.
