    No it’s compeltely different now- it’s was sold last year and the new owners now run the whole yard themselves. Lots of turnout and happy horses. Quite possibly the best livery yard ever!

    Great thanks for your replys. I had thought of the car as the car park is right by the school or in the pram. She is only a few months but as you say it gets more difficult when they are running around! I like the idea of the Wendy house!!

    Rambo, rhino or amigo?

    I'm just perusing what winter rugs to buy but can't work out what the difference between these three horse ware brands are. Some seem to be the same weight and durability yet very different prices??
