    Do these work? Hoof soaking boots

    I've got a pair of the original clean trax soaking boots - only used twice many moons ago and sat in the garage since then. Anyone is welcome to them for the price of postage x

    I don't know if I should sell my horse

    She always felt as if she was going to kick - say for instance if tied up for grooming and you walked behind her she would barge you with her hind end and although she never did it felt like the threat was there. She bit OH and myself various times and changing a rug or even going inthe field...

    I don't know if I should sell my horse

    I too had a PRE who I never really got on with - ridden or on the ground. She was not at all how I'd imagined a PRE to be temperament wise. I kept her for two years and admitted defeat in the end and sold her. Have to admit I was slightly relieved when she went - we just didn't gel at all...

    I’ve just looked at who’s playing Rupert Campbell-Black in Rivals and…

    Can't (or don't want to lol) believe that book can possibly be 40 years old 😱 That's made me feel bl****y ancient. I remember getting it for a Christmas present when it first came out and how excited I was to read it x

    Same for me - love it too but couldn't wait so binged it in one sitting. Apart from RCB not being my first choice (too old and not good looking enough) . I think they've captured the spirit of the book really well. Rivals was always my favourite Jilly Cooper - I wanted to be there x

    Anyone over seeded their fields yet.

    Whereabouts are you @Marigold4 ? The ground here (SW) is still a long way off taking any machinery onto it. Made that mistake last week when thought the ground was drying up and now have made a worse mess 🤦‍♀️. It will be at least a week or more of no rain before anything much can be done...

    Winter is a cruel mistress

    Just when I thought spring was here. Its been constant showers here and the bit of dry field with grass in I had left is no more. Its now a muddy mess like the rest of the paddocks but with two muddy tracks to the dry (er) part of the field so it's back to the arena for turnout. Nobody is...

    Riding Tights

    The Just Togs denim leggings are good - they do light or dark denim. They are very stretchy and comfortable and wash well.and have everything you want and not too expensive if you shop around. I live in mine and they're smart enough to pop out to the shops etc without having to keep changing...

    Spanish Boy arriving next week - EEKK!

    She wasn't that bad. It was mainly her midline and top of tail (bizarrely she rubbed all of the hair off from just one ear overnight (twice) so I just used a lot of benzl benzoate and fly spray and didn't take her anywhere with the one ear thing as she looked like a neglect case lol. X

    Spanish Boy arriving next week - EEKK!

    My pre got very itchy in the summer so that might be something to keep an eye on. She was also an extremely good doer which I wasn't expecting but was manageable. Hope it all goes well xxx

    Fly Bites On Udders

    My mare gets bad fly irritation along her midline and udders. Think it's a certain type of fly as it only happens earlier in the year around AprilMay. I've tried allsorts but the only thing that stopped it was benzyl benzoate which used to be easy to get in the chemist but now it's not so I've...
