billy bunter died in his stable in a fire, i wrote this song has a tribute to the horses that died that night....
he was my daughters horse, a really friendly chap, so sweet, i really do miss him, so much, even though he was not with us long, he was one of those horses that just got into your heart as soon as you meet them.
the fire was in darwen lancashire england, at whalley stud stables on the 14thjuly 2008. and was a arson attack, 4 horses died that day, another 3 where saved by the stable owner and firemen
can i ask everyone who reads this to visit the http://www.maggieslaw.co.uk/ website and read the story of maggie and what happened to her, then to sign a petition at http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/Maggies-Law/ to help make thoughther sentences for crimes against horses, please do this for me and billy bunter, these kind of attacks just cant go on.. big thanks, alan.
PS.. if you would like to know more about the fire, please google or do a internet search for darwen stable fire you could also visit a bbc website to see the northwest tonight report on the fire : http://search.bbc.co.uk/cgi-bin/search/results.pl?uri=%2F&scope=all&g...

  • How can the courts hand out such leanient sentances for something as horrific as this.

  • Allen, you did your horses right by singing this. Never been in a fire but had to watch my next door neighbor;s horse be put to sleep.. COLIC and twisted bowell Was tough as I loved her horse as much as she did. I took care of him on my land. SOOO sorry for your loss my friend.

  • I want to agree with the sentiments here, i find that people who love and care for animals are generally very good and decent people.....the bible says..the righteous man takes care of the needs of his animal...well done alan!

  • Good video! Good songwriting!

    Sorry for your daughters' loss.

  • :( I'm crying & the arsonist got off too! :(

  • im so sorry
