I ended up selling my saddles to a dealer for cash when I gave up last year. They also took all my really good hunting bridles etc. It broke my heart but I just had to get rid and move on. Most were hunting saddles so not very fashionable. The only one I kept was a Fairfax which is still in my...

I didn't say it was OK tbf, I just think that you cannot take stuff in isolation. I hate seeing the deaths too. One of the reasons I stopped going to my local pt to pt for a while was that there were so many deaths at one meeting the knacker wagon was full and they were being dumped in the wood...

Gamebird as always speaks total sense. I have had a horse collapse on return from a normal sedate hack due to heart issues. He was well looked after, regularly checked by vet etc. Like with humans these things happen sadly. He was relatively young too. There are so many variables in racing I...

Me too. 3 days there and now have strep throat and antibiotics! We went to watch the agility with my friend competing in YKC. Usual abundance of Devongems in the main arena 🙄. Spent too much but it was all obviously essential 🤣

Brilliant congratulations BC 🎊

So we trotted off to a G 3 to 5 show today. Been to the venue once before and it is still a shithole. Typical old equestrian venue dodgy loos and little exercise area for dogs. However, the inside arean was firm sand and my girls loved it ! Daz went rogue we were eliminated at number 1 and I...

Good news Micro being introduced from 2027. Bad news it's 280 so neither of mine will measure in. We tried them both with 300 and that was touch and go. How long before we see Micro WCS?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I reckon there must have been a dodgy moon last night 🌙. Up at 5.40 to be at our clubs KC show. We were in the first class the agility at 8.30. First up Daz who has been amazing in training lately yet today you'd think it was her first time in the ring 🙈 she ran to the entrance at keast 3...

I didn't expect that either!

Of course they have 🤣🤣

50 Shades 🤣🤣

@sarah.oxford that's fantastic what an amazing feeling that musr be. Congratulations 🎊

That's some travelling STR! I also admire your stamina. We have a show tomorrow about an hour away looks like another wet one. Can't practice anything at home as so wet. Fed up of the rain.Girls don't even want to go for a wee never mind walk!

Totally shocked. A very cold day today but a good one. In the graded 3 to 5 Daz won the G3 and Pebs the G4 jumping. Both clear and within the time 😍🥳 In the agility I cocked up and got Daz eliminated 😬 Then Pebs won the G4 clear but 2.6 time pens annoyingly. All felt a bit unreal tbh. Took girls...

I follow her too and was really sad. She really makes you realise just what they do with their horses to give them the best chance in their races. The flat schooling making them carry themselves properly. When you follow someone you feel like you know the horses so well. Was so so sad.
