    Anyone in a riding club team, please help with information

    Thanks for the reply, I have since found out that what it was, was the National Champs that were held in Lincoln in September and "her team" did not win overall. They did get some placings but her idea of what she has done is a complete fabrication. Not sure what she hopes to achieve by lying...

    Anyone in a riding club team, please help with information

    Well thats what we have thought. The ONLY award where there is a ceremony in London on the date 18th November is for TREK and as far as I am concerned, this is nothing associated with dressage or jumpng riding club teams. Just asking as am a little bit fed up of people moving to Spain from UK...

    Anyone in a riding club team, please help with information

    Has anyone ever heard of the "RIDING CLUB OF GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND AWARD"? It is something associated with the BHS apparently and involves show jumping teams and dressage teams, I am assuming that this is something where the teams collect points over the year..... If anyone knows about...

    Equi-trek - poor customer service

    Hi - The 9 pounds + did NOT include the part, this cost was just for the envelope it came in !! Incidently the key which came with the new lock, fit the old lock - DOES this mean that all tack lockers and gas bottle lockers on Equi-Trek trailers have the SAME KEY - if this is so, then this...

    Equi-trek - poor customer service

    Having recently had to purchase a small spare part weighing approx. 250 gram I was amazed at the post & package charges levied by Equi-Trek. The postage stamped on the envelope by Royal Mail was 2.65. Equi-trek then charged 9.35 for a small Jiffy bag which can be bought for 50 pence...

    Potential new horse- how much should i pay??

    I just have one comment to make: Do not buy a known problem in legs/tendons of any kind, it will only lead to expense and heart ache in the future. Its bad enough if something arrives after you have bought the horse, but to buy it knowing that there is something is foolish. This comes from a...

    Dressage question

    There is absolutely no reason why a pony would not be capable of doing the movements required at a slightly higher level. I did dressage on a 13,2 New forest pony and he did amazingly well and when I sold him and moved to Spain, he carried on up the levels, being on BYRDS teams and all sorts...

    Rhinegold Leatherwork

    Rhinegold is cheap tat.... I don't rate any of it. The leather is not good quality at all, but then again, I guess you get what you pay for.

    Katie Price at HOYS tomorrow

    I would just like to state my opinion on this, since I saw it on You Tube. What a complete and utter insult to the grace, beauty and elegance of our sport. Our sport is elegant and beautiful through our beautiful horses and the movements, not through make up 3 inches thick, looking like a fancy...

    Even My Pets A Porker - ridiculous!

    My god, people are so dumb. I will admit to the odd biscuit, beer or little bit of wine for my boys. But a little little bit.

    Would anyone like to donate £2000 to me?

    blimey, I agree you should get insurance. But your vet may or may not agree to do installments. How much can you afford per month? There is not much hope that they will let you pay over a long period of time. My vets on speed dial and I ahve seen FAR too much of him this year, but my bill is...
