    Chambon??

    Im here! Sorry, I haven't been on here for quite a long time, but a friend of mine emailed me to let me know that someone on here was asking after me! Sorry I've been absent for a while, I had a few things to sort out but things are really good now. I sold both the foals but have kept the...

    hot air ballons

    I went up in a hot air balloon this morning! It was fantastic! Saw lots of horses and had a good nosey at several yards from overhead. Most of the horses in the fields weren't bothered at all but there was one field with two horses in it that went a bit crazy. I even saw a lady schooling her...

    Anyone else use a camera for their horsebox/trailer?

    I hope that's wrong!!!!! We have a DVD player and screen in the middle of the dash so that the kids can watch a movie on long journeys, whoever is driving would also be able to watch it if they wanted to!

    schools where you can take your horse

    It's not quite south east, more west, but I agree about Stonar. Our daughter goes there, it is an excellent school and the equestrian side is fantastic.

    Anyone else use a camera for their horsebox/trailer?

    I have a camera in my trailer and one on the back of my car. I use the one on the car when I'm reversing (it's a big car and Im not very good at parking it!) and the trailer one when it's hitched up. It's not wireless but I just plug it in from the car to the trailer. The picture quality is...

    $!*&ing Buyers!!!!!! (sorry, rant alert)!!!!!

    Oh, it just gets better and better..... I have just had an email from somebody I know (would you believe), offering me HALF of the asking price for one of my foals, on the condition that they can register the foal in their name (ie their name as the breeder). I've heard it all now.

    $!*&ing Buyers!!!!!! (sorry, rant alert)!!!!!

    Ooopsie!!!!! So I shouldn't have told them to Naff off then? No, seriously, I didn't. I have given them bank account details (for an empty saver account) and they have said it will take them 2 days to get the funds into their right account, but that they will transfer the full asking...

    $!*&ing Buyers!!!!!! (sorry, rant alert)!!!!!

    Mmm, can we do a swap? I would rather have no enquiries than the trail of muppets I've dealt with recently! I could have spent the day with my family on the beach instead of scrubbing and cleaning and polishing for someone who didn't even have the decency to tell me that they had found...

    $!*&ing Buyers!!!!!! (sorry, rant alert)!!!!!

    No, it wasn't one of those! The husband and wife did both phone me and emailed me photos of their yard & horses. I just don't believe a word anyone says anymore, perhaps I'm just too cynical now!

    $!*&ing Buyers!!!!!! (sorry, rant alert)!!!!!

    I have had enough! Of buyers messing me around. Why do people do this? Why oh why? I have had just about everything thrown at me in the last couple of weeks: - People not turning up (and Ive sent the family out for the day without me, bathed the horse and got it ready etc and then they...

    Driving/harness horses- do you?

    I drive our section A... I broke him to harness last year with an exercise cart, then rushed out and bought a very posh, very old, showing gig for him... but it's sat in the barn gathering dust and cobwebs ever since!

    How attached are you to your horses?

    I'm going through it at the moment as I'm selling my breeding stock... I thought is would be easy, but I'm starting to realise that they are actually pets
