As usual I imagined I'd whip this up in no time at all and of course it ended up taking me about four times longer than I thought.

There have been quite a few of our favourite movies discontinued but thankfully there should be more coming through to take their place. One of the most exciting new releases for early next year will be "Moondance Alexander" a family movie about a teenager determined to make a chubby, coloured pony Checkers into a champion showjumper, despite all opposition.

Also Johhny Depp has just signed with Disney to make a big budget remake of The Lone Ranger which I can't wait for. I'm a big fan of both Johnny Depp and The Lone Ranger so all my dreams have come true at once.

There are some new series including a gorgeous one for young readers based on the Breyer model horses which looks so sweet, plus The Charming Pony series has several new releases which are always favourites.

For the young adults there is a brilliant new teen-angst novel, "Annan Water" written by award winning Irish author Kate Thompson. I've read the first twenty pages or so here at work and am hooked already, but have forced myself to put it away and GET ON WITH WORK. That is not an easy thing to do in here, I can tell you.

Thankyou so much for all the wonderful people right around Australia who I now count on as good friends and have supported me so enthusiastically in the last year, and please have a safe and Happy Christmas.

This is a new series that has recently been showing on Channel 10. I’ve watched it and it is extremely cute … no wonder the children are so keen on
it. The animals all talk to each other as well as the people and the horses have the most beautiful manes and tails. There are heaps of bloopers in it but you can have fun looking for all the times they
get on the wrong side, hold the reins upside down and so on.

“A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust, and a hearty 'Hi-yo, Silver, away!”
