MICHAEL Harty, show producer and rider at Cashelbay Connemara Ponies, had “palpitations” last week when his proposal plan nearly went awry due to the bride-to-be’s brother! Thankfully all went well and we can offer our congratulations to Harty and his partner, Kaysha Murray.

“Kaysha is from Inishbofin (Co Galway) and it was her birthday weekend so we went over on what she thought was a birthday trip,” Harty explained.
