Bill the Bastard

from Kels gone bush - The Podcast Hosted by Kellie Arrowsmith

Bill the bastard was arguably the toughest Australian Lighthorse in history. Good luck trying to ride him though. Today's episode I get a tad passionate about the plight of the Brumbies in the Victorian High Country , most of which have links to the heritage of Australian Lighthorse's . As I mention in the podcast , I am useless at legal jargon and politics , so I've decided to tell Bill's story instead. Because Bill is proof that these horses are not useless feral animals that need culling. A lot of the soldiers who attempted to stay on Bill for longer than a minute may have disagreed. But in the end Bill proved just because your a cranky bastard doesn't mean you don't have courage , strength .. and a massive heart. I could not have told his story with out this website https://billthebastard.org/ definitely check it out for more on Bill and the Australian Lighthorse legacy To help Phil Maguire and find out more about the fight to save our Brumbies please join the Facebook page Rural Resistance https://www.facebook.com/groups/585289412322451/ To donate to the legal fight https://www.paypal.me/loumag1061?fbclid=IwAR3UN0DrH_xkTu2206C2kBE_jfWKomCZs18edR4zqpitF483pBs4VAJ7J4I
