    London International horse show

    Did anybody else think Oliver Fletcher's horse looked very uncomfortable? Trantering until they got going and then a very stuffy 4-beat canter.

    Put a band round your helmet and attach it to that?

    Hoof abscess pus colour

    Well I've learned something new! I thought pus was yellow. Thats what all the videos show when they demonstrate a farrier cutting into the hoof.

    Head Torches!!

    I got mine from Decathlon. They have a few different ones. Mine has a red light and two settings on the white light. It wasn't the most powerful one they had but it's pretty good when searching for horses in a pitch black field.

    Bitting advice for Ozzy

    Mine isn't a cob, but a bit fitter put her in the NS tactio turtle top eggbutt. After a while she didn't want to open her mouth when bridling. I swapped her to a hanging cheek Myler with a ported barrel. She goes well in it and we dont have any problems putting her bridle on now.

    Heinger explorer clippers price second hand

    That seems awfully low. I bought my set 10 years ago with 2 batteries and 2 sets of blades. To replace them now I'd have to pay £650 new.

    keeping horse off acorns

    If you blow them to the fence line just make sure you blow them far enough away that the horses can't get them. Otherwise you've just created an easy larder for them 🤣

    Plaiting bands

    None are easy, but I find the silicone ones snap more easily than the rubber ones

    Feeding multiple horses in the field

    Could you take Old Lady out throught the gate and feed her there? This is what we do with ours when we need to feed at the field. Then put the buckets in for the others either while she's eating or after she's back in the field.

    Knee support

    Do you have flexible stirrups? I have a repaired ACL and found Flexons made a huge difference. Other brands are available 😀

    Burly Bed users

    I take the wet out when it starts to show at the surface. I have rubber mats and about 4-5" of bedding.
