Nothing constructive to add but wanted to say well done and a lovely mare! I'm gradually working up to the prospect of taking one of mine to my first show in years next year! Nerve wracking that's for sure!

I have PM'd you :)

Couldn't help but notice you wanted an Evo, my boyfriend had one until a couple of months ago was great :) Currently driving an older corsa, looking to upgrade to a Suzuki Swift later this year.

To buy my first horse.

I have emailed them in the past, however I haven't had the chance to phone them as of yet which I do keep meaning to do, just wanted to ask on here as well if anyone else knew of anything.

I did ask a while ago but never had a reply

Also in Stolen and Trace but thought I could reach more people here. I was just wondering if anyone would have any information on a Skewbald pony called Millie who was at the Callum Park riding school about 7/8 years ago. Last of what I heard she was there about a year ago as well. I wanted...

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone would have any information on a Skewbald pony called Millie who was at the Callum Park riding school about 7/8 years ago. Last of what I heard she was there about a year ago as well. I wanted to know if anyone knows if she is still there or has been sold on...

Yes they do, I part loan a horse who I only hack but we do a lot of fast work. Although I have a friend looking for just a light hack to plod around on so there are definitely people out there :)

My first gallop was on my current loan horse, an ex race horse who only knows one speed. I loved it. Strangely I didn't feel out of control or scared at all but it was a job and a half pulling her up at the end of it. She enjoys it so I don't see no harm in letting her have a good gallop every...

I was always taught it was a sign a horse was relaxed or calm like someone else said. My Grandfather would always sigh around his nervous mare and it always seemed to calm her down and she would sigh back shortly after. Never heard of anyone else doing it though (or it working on any other...

We used to have to do round the world or something called thread the needle I think? while our ponies were walking and if anyone slid off they owed our instructor a chocolate bar. After sliding off once no one ever did it again. Did all the usual things like sitting on a piece of paper in canter...

Thank you, could see it was coming for a long time now, but like everyone else I never thought it would happen to me. But I do agree, :) I continue to be amazed by animals each day. I think that talent may have by-passed some humans :rolleyes: it's a shame not everyone gets to experience...

I couldn't agree with you more. I'm just amazed at how sensitive they are to our moods, I've heard of other people and having these experiences with their own horses but I'd never truly realised until today how uplifting an animal can be. She's not usually an affectionate and soppy mare but...

Got made redundant this morning :( and left shortly after to go and look after my loan horse. As you can imagine I was in a rubbish mood and was thoroughly gutted for losing my job, although my loan horse really cheered me up. I've had her for a while now and hadn't really thought we'd grown a...
