Sad news

I don't know how many now here remember Catja, from Great Britain (her
horse was Count Nosferatu, also known as Crumble).

She had Crumble put down today.  He'd been declining in soundness, and
was getting even worse instead of improving at the beginning of
summer, turning listless and not his usual self, showing signs of
being in pain.  He'd been pasture sound for the past year or so, but
that was failing.  The decline was getting bad over the past two
weeks, and he was not showing signs of taking it with grace.

Mark VIVIVI, can you do the honors?
