    Contact Information For Courtlands Livery Yard, Banstead, Surrey

    Hi this number had an answerphone 01737 357259. I left message and lady got back to me. I used to be there years ago and wanted to go back but they only do full livery which I wasn't looking for. The people running the yard lived in the house right next to the start of the drive.

    Anyone bought from Countrybase.co.uk?

    I ordered an exercise fleece from them and all was ok. Paid over the phone and it arrived just as quickly as Robinson's would have been.

    Absolutely Horrific

    What is wrong with these people. I never understand how anyone can do things like this to any animal or person. As "emmasmummy" says there is clearly a very dangerous person out there. I hope they get caught and if not karma will sort it out. Poor kid. What a horrible horrible situation.

    how long for bruising to go down? (rider not horse!)

    Everyone is different with the time takes it takes to heal but definitely get some arnica cream and also some arnica tablets so can work from inside out and well as outside in.
