Sometimes it would be nice to stay over night at the stables,
especially if a foal is expected!
Make yourself comfortable in hay, have a good friend along...
But which are the necessities for a long night?
Warmth!
If you choose pure wool or cashmere you will have a blanket for the rest of your life.
When choosing high quality and timeless patterns you will have a blanket to take

The baits are usually the best part of the picnics and sleepovers. Make delicious
sandwhiches, take nuts and fruits along, not forgetting fresh water. They will keep
you going all night long. And to avoid the damage the mice might do,
pack your bait in a basket! This traditional ‘Devon Maund’ picnic hamper is
handwoven by master basket-weaver Hilary Burns using Devon willow and hazel.
