An appeal from a very proud Mom

(By e-mail) "Hi Prospero, many thanks for putting Laura up on your blog this morning...she still thinks she´s dreaming, bless her! Anyway, coming down to earth, you are probably aware of the cutbacks this year for the Feria and the girls have been asked to, basically, organise (and pay for!) as much as possible themselves...there´s no help with the dresses, sweets, etc and they even have to walk instead of having the carrozas (floats)...so I was wondering if you would kindly ask on your blog if anyone would be willing to lend us a carriage and horses to transport these young ladies to their destination? I think they are going to pool their resources and buy the sweeties so that the children don't miss out on this particular tradition and of course, the dresses will be bought by themselves (with some family help, hopefully).....we are just a bit stuck on the transport........we are open to suggestions if a carriage and horses can't be found, of course!! Thanks so much from one proud mum!" (Please see our item on the Queen of the Fair)
