    Calmers for this situation?

    Hello I am a bit of a sceptic about calmers, but am wondering whether I'm being too dismissive and there might be a product out there that could help... All recommendations gratefully received! My 8 year old Connemara gelding is a generally easy going chap, but every so often something spooks...

    Tow car- Toureg or Jeep Grand Cherokee

    I have an 11yo Touareg and it's great to tow with and a generally nice car to drive. Over the years I've had a Jeep Grand Cherokee and a Nissan Pathfinder, and the Touareg is by far the superior all round general vehicle. I don't love it like I did the others, for some reason though?! It has...

    Dog behaving very old before her time - usual vet checks OK - suggestions?

    In that case I think referral, definitely, and I'd second esters recommendation of a general medicine specialist first. Not sure where you are, but I'd recommend Langford in North Somerset if it's close enough. We've been referred there for general medicine, dermatology, neurology and the pain...

    Dog behaving very old before her time - usual vet checks OK - suggestions?

    I would ask for a referral to a dermatology specialist in the first instance, and potentially a general medicine specialist too/next. One of our dogs aged in a similar way with really awful allergy related ear problems, and a dermatologist was the answer. Good luck x

    Ful seat breeches for those without a proper waist?!

    Any recommendations for ladies full seat breeches that work well for the straight up and down figure? My current ones fit well on the waist but are baggy round thighs and bum. Looking for navy blue or denim, with full suede type seat, no silicone, and big pockets... Not that I'm fussy! ? Yours...

    Find me a pony please HHOers...

    Well.... He's currently broken!!! But only after doing something daft in the field ? He moves brilliantly for a connie, has a fabulous jump, and a really lovely temperament. Can be looky and can buck a bit when excited, but is on nearly all levels your perfect easy allrounder. I worship him...

    Is anyone else useless at trimming etc?

    Hahaha! I am randomly not completely incompetent at clipping (though I would definitely do it at least 2 weeks before a planned outing ?), just all the other elements of trimming and tidying hair ?

    Very reassuring to know I'm not alone! Oldie48 I think my problem is an overabundance of (misplaced) confidence as I always charge in with enthusiasm... Just no skill sadly!

    Haha, yes - the difference between a bad haircut and a good one is about 2 weeks ?
