Let me know when u are looking properly. I've actually slipped a disc in my back yesterday so have postponed his advertising on the web (horse quest) so he may still be around he is slightly over the 5-6 mark but his talent and record proves this and that he is still a great bargain. His home is...

I have 16.3 8 yo chestnut gelding for sale. He is currently competing BD elementary and will go further. Loves to jump - at home jumping 1.05m. Sweet natured horse. Hacks alone or in company and takes confidence from rider, not spooky. Good to load catch shoe clip etc Reason for selling is...

Try going to the manufacturer directly - then you know whether the part needed is still made, and how easily it will be to get hold of it. If they wont supply an individual directly, get friendly with a retailer, and ask them to order it on your behalf...

I have asked a girl on the yard - and she said i can lower the ramp no problem - just the space inside isnt massive, but he is fine once he is in. I am going to do a week or so of groundwork before i even try him on a ramp to get him to trust me a bit more, and so i can read him better. Will be...

how is the be nice nicer than the maxwell? - it has studs in the poll area and works on poll, nose and jaw pressure... not being argumentative but just dont know much about either of them. it is just cos of the softer material

Also what is the difference between Richard Maxwell halter and the BeNice halters?

Like the Dually comes with a DVD of how best used, does the Richard Maxwell one? Also, where can I get one? Edited: Ive just been on Richard Maxwell website, there are 2 different halters, training halter (with DVD) and horsemans halter (braid on braid marine rope) - which is the right one?

I am REALLY grateful for all your suggestions, but how does a Dually work? I know it has the extra noseband piece that tightens, but we have tried this with Buddy before using the leadrope round his nose, and how does it differ from the effects a Chifney has? No dismissing, just no experience...

Don't get me wrong, I do NOT want the bucket to EVER happen again, nor the spooky items. I just want him to be how he was when I got him - loaded fine. Will try asking about the £5 thing - may work, just feel a bit cheeky asking.

When I 1st got Buddy, he loaded like a dream, walked straight onto a box (both herringbone and rear facing - never used a trailer). At my last competition, he was loaded between Dressage and SJ - no problem. The guy that was driving me, phoned me to say I would have to come back to box as he...

Are the Sweet FA threads about telling other members about your day? I'd like to be part of it - looks fun!

OK martin, thanks. Laptop has Photoshop on - I know the basics. What are the dimensions that the signature should be, either pixels or CM's/MM's please?

Last week I asked how to create one of these signature with 3 or 4 photos next to each other, and I got pointed to the Picture Gallery step by step... However, I have a work laptop and cannot download the needed program. Does anyone have an alternative, or a way to get the signature like this...

What is all this Sweet FA please? Is it a collection of members?

Been on HHO a while, but was also on NR (also under graciemoo). HHO definitely more informative and got the more solid advice for certain things. Welcome though to any of the new new NR's!
