    Horse Back to Dealer- still no refund

    Check out this thread, is this the same dealer mentioned there?https://forums.horseandhound.co.uk/threads/looking-for-dealer-recommendations.845639/. If so there are several others who have had this issue, most eventually got their refund, but after weeks of chasing.

    How long to learn to ride?

    I rode a bit, less than you, as a child. Stopped early teenage as lessons too expensive. I started again in mid 50s, like you lesson once a week. Then through a friend whose family were horsey I started riding once a week, hacking out on point to piont racehorses. I was completely novice...

    I bought a custom built long wheel base Renault Master with 129k miles on the clock 10 years ago and it’s still going strong with regular use. They are workhorses and built to do the miles.

    Ice/coolant/water cooler rugs

    Ice/coolant/water cooler rugs

    My horse gets very warm, we do low level endurance and she’s been a poor traveller but is getting much more relaxed as we get out more. But in warm weather I’d like to do something to help her keep cool in the trailer. I’m looking at the Equi-N-Ice...

    Horse market at present

    I didn’t have a good experience with Broadhill Stables. Wouldn’t go near them again. I suspect they have cashflow problems when horses on trial go back and refund needed. All fine if the trial works out I guess as lots of good reviews.

    Issues with recent horsebox flattening battery

    I had an isolator fitted too. I also have a solar trickle charger, but I don’t trust it! I always use the isolator.
