Thanks for your replies. barehoofhannah- Not heard of that one yet, could you possibly PM me a number for them? Titch- I have been trying to focus on the Breaston, Draycott, Risley areas but struggling to find many options with not being from the area. I'm looking for either DIY or part livery...

Hi I'm relocating for a job at the beginning of January and I'm looking to find a yard for my horse. I'm going to be living in either Long Eaton, Chilwell or Beeston (need to find somewhere for me to live to!), so any recommendations of yards around these areas would be greatly appreciated!

This is probably in the wrong area but I'm sure a few of you in here are from the lincs or notts area. I'm really keen to take on a working pupil position in order to gain more experience and get my BHS stages, i keep looking on yardandgroom but haven't yet found anything suitable. Does...

The other weekend i qualified my horse for the finals in SJ, she's now qualified for both dressage and SJ and i'm debating which to enter her for. I've only ever been to the finals before to do dressage and that was a few years ago but my horse is more of a jumper than a dressage horse so i'm...

thank you! Sounds like fun :)

Hi, I'm thinking about taking my horse to have a go at the derby day this weekend but i was wondering if anyone on here has been to any of their previous derby days (lincs area)? If so, what's the course like? Thanks!

I've now got a free day tomorrow and was hoping i might be able to get my horse out to pop some courses but most centres don't seem to be running anything till next weekend Anyone know of any jumping on in the lincolnshire area?

Thanks for the replies! Have decided we'll take a trip down there and see how it goes! Have only ever heard good things about arena uk before and having seen the pics for tomorrow's course i'm rather looking forward to it! x

Having a bit of a dilema, was originally going to go 20mins down the road for some SJ/ indoor XC but their running pure SJ along side as well and due to comittments in the evening i think it's going to take forever to get through the classes! I then discovered arena uk have some indoor xc on as...

Congrats! Can't wait to see the vid! Was this a laughton's evening sj night? I was planning on taking my horse down there tonight but couldn't fit it in the end! x

thanks! Rather than thinking we're never going to get anywhere, i'm now looking forward to giving it another go and putting in to practice some of your tips! With regard to her maybe messing around because it's too easy, that's not really the case. At the moment it's a major achievement to...

thanks for the replies! Rach- yes i am a member of a RC but they don't seem to be running many clinics at the moment. MardyMare- yes it was elms farm, sorry to hear you had a bad day! You've made me feel slightly better about my score, could have cried when i saw it! lol i'll keep giving it a...

I don't post on here very much but i thought a lot of you would have some experience of this and might be able to give me a few tips! Bit of background, this is a new mare i've had for 4 months now, she came to me with pretty much no schooling so despite her being 8, she's mentally and her way...

I went to the finals doing prelim dressage in 06 & 07 on my quite average 14hh pony. We mainly went for the experience and had a great time! The first year as a junior we can 8th but the 2nd year i was a senior and to be honest whilst we still had a good time, we were well out of our league...

I went a couple of years ago with my pony, bit like you it was the first time i'd stayed away and definitely the biggest competition i'd ever done. I was rather nerve when i saw how good everyone looked but eventually excitement took over and i just enjoyed it. You've qualified so you deserve...
