I rode my four year old for the first time today in 2 weeks (and has only been ridden 3 times in a month) and went for an hour walk. Im probably going to carry on roughly as normal (2x walk hacks per week with sharer, 1 normal hack and 1 lesson) as he wasnt really fit before!! I dont really...

Im Charlotte, 22 years old, graduated this year and work in Marketing and have two horses, Milly a 15.3 16 year old ISH who we have owned since 2002 and is now retired and a 5 year old hanoverian called Eternity who we bought last year. Last year I didnt do much due to Milly's injury but before...

I last rode nearly two weeks ago!! Horses have now been ridden three times in three or 4 weeks (i have lost track of time!)

Erm at the moment prelim dressage! With my old horse we did a bit of everything but mainly PN eventing - we did do PC opens in dressage, showjumping and eventing

Nothing! My horse has been ridden 3 times in the past three weeks and no chance of riding again until next weekend. Im not to worried though my one horse is only 4 (well tech 5!) so he's just having an unscheduled holiday and my other horse is retired anyway.

[ QUOTE ] Littlegreymare, we also go too fast round intro.... Jess with the arab - wow, he is absolutely stunning! Mine is polish but not as 'araby' as yours! [/ QUOTE ] Must be an arab thing then

I did my first BE event just before my 18th birthday - before then i had done mainly PC events.

I evented my 14.2 at two intro events this summer. The height was no issue - our biggest problem was we went too fast (hangs head in shame) and the dressage where the judge laughed at us and asked what an earth we were doing!!!

My 15 year old horse is now retired due to arthritus so no she isnt to young

Personally I think your a bit mad to travel! I live in the middle of Tallands and Summerhouse and we are in chaos. There are so many cars abondaned on the side of the road in my town. There were a lot of accidents about yesterday, my road home was shut as a lorry was across the road... I...

I am starting to wonder if i am silly if i pay for my horse to be evented by my sister for probably most of the season (until i am deemed capable!) Im still annoyed/upset at how much i spent last year to have a few scary runs and end up with a retired horse

Lows: - Milly going lame and being retired -Realising Mils had been wrong for quite a long time -My darling Milly spending 1/4 of the year on box rest Highs: - Buying the new horse! -Competiting two intros on my old pony who i had had since she was 4 - going from not jumping doubles to two...

Why the at hacking???!!!!!! Have just added you on fb!

Well done it was sooo wet! Not ideal conditions for a first novice at all! I was so wet after watching my sister do one test (on my horse) i let her do mine as well!!! Seriously it was fair play to anyone who went today!

I work full time and am finding it very difficult at the mo - but compared to the rest of the thread i have it easy! I have two horses one i ride and the other i dont (sadly), i feed 3 horses in the morning and turn one of mine out. Then two days a week i have a sharer who rides for me the...
