Title: Horse Doctor required please!
Post by: Tony55 on Thursday 21 August 08 20:14 BST (UK)
Hi all,
This is my first attempt at posting a picture so i hope i don't mess things up!  :-[

This is a picture of my GGFather George Rennison driving his "Taxi Cab" which was based in Newton on Ouse and used in the York and Thirsk area, i'm not sure when it was taken but he was circa 1851-1928, if anyone could work their magic on his poor old steed i'd be very grateful!

Thanks very much, regards Tony    (fingers crossed)

Wow,thank you all very much, they are superb!

John, if thats your first attempt then there's great things to come in the future! :)
Dave,Emjaybee and Rayfo thank you they are lovely!  :)
and Bill, you've even managed to give old Dobbin a good grooming, his coat looks good enough for a dressage event!  :)

once again thanks very much, my mother will realy appreciate seeing the restored version.

Best wishes, Tony

Tony,

This is a very impressive picture.

George's brother John Rennison (1849- 1899) was my GGG Grandfather.

Do you have any other photos of the family in Newton?
