SANDRA O'CONNELLtalks to Gerard McCarthy owner of Loughrea Equestrian Centre

I GET UP at 6.30am and feed the horses in the yard. Then I go in and help with the kids’ breakfast before dropping them off at school. I’m back out in the yard, getting ready to head off for a full day trail ride, at 10am.
