Don't know how many of the members are old enough to remember him or how widespread Little & Large were but a few Brits from the 80s will know.
Sad. Little and Large made Saturday evenings special.

Herbert, age 36. Passed away in his stall last night. First horse I ever rode. Gentle as a May breeze, handsome as a movie star would want to be, brave as people think John Wayne was.

I've made it plain how I feel about horses, but condolences on the loss of your friend all the same.

He certainly had a long life. I've never heard of a horse living to that age. Verily, of the cup of life, he enjoyed a full measure.

Horses have been reliably documented in excess of 50 years old.
