Thanks for the information, Chris. I've watched the clip several times now and think it's a great pity that we don't see good news on the TV more often. I'm sure there's plenty of it. It's all the more a piece of good news when it's realised how extra dangerous the episode really was with barbed wire in the water. |

The horses were in Marrum, 90 miles north east of Amsterdam. There was submerged barbed wire so fire fighters and animal rescue workers waded out and plotted a route before the women went out to save them. One horse failed to follow but was brought to safety by workers. It collapsed and needed veterinary treatment. A complaint has been lodged against the horse owners who failed to heed the storm warnings! Chris |
