Hello! Would love to share news of this superstar pony. Have sent you a private message x

Thank you all for your replies. The general verdict seems to be that they are very good. Now I have actually seen one I must agree. But, how on earth do you put a value on a trailer that is not made anymore?

If you've had any experience of the Indespension Monarque trailer please will you share your experience. Thank you.

No - £35 per room. Room only.

I have just returned from HOYS and can recommend The Etap Hotel at Birmingham Airport. There is a free mono rail shuttle to the NEC which only takes a couple of minutes (and is FUN). The hotel only opened a couple of weeks ago, it is a budget hotel, very basic but as it is brand new it is...

Lacy's Cottage Riding School at Scrayingham is run by Chris and Nicky Pimlott their number is 01759 371586. They are both excellent teachers. Chris is absolutely fantastic with the younger children and never forgets their names. The children love him. They also employ other teachers at the...

We've had daughter's pony for nearly nine months and last weekend was the first time that it was a problem for us that she was in season. She became very jumpy - at one point skating around the yard, wouldn't stand still, weeing every few yards - so we put her back in her paddock and she wasn't...

Thank you all. I have had a look at the websites of the brands that you all recommend. None appear to have pony size standing martingales - I don't think they can be very popular. Our current bridle is a Sabre, it has seen better days although it looks like it has served it's purpose very well...

I am looking at purchasing a new bridle, standing martingale and reins for daughter's 12.2 pony. This will be a first time purchase for us for a new outfit, they will have to match a brown saddle. Which brands are considered to be the best? Most I see in the tack shops are hard and inflexible...

Have had quite large trailers before (not a horse trailer and not towed with this car) and not had any problems towing with a car. Does anyone else tow pony with a car?

The PT engine is diesel 2.2, the pony is 12.2.

Not with a cruiser? We have a Smart....

The car is a Chrysler PT Cruiser.

I wanted to spend as little as possible for something safe and sound. Initially I presumed we would get a good second hand one for £1000 - so naive. I can't get over the secondhand price 'conspiracy', I can't think of anything else that graces our roads that retains its value so much as these...

Thank you for your replies. I have lurked on eBay looking at trailers for some time but found it very depressing - many of the trailers look so grotty in the pictures. Anything decent goes for such a high price - what happened to depreciation? Which brands qualify as flimsy in your opinion...
