Thank you for all these fantastic ideas! I will go through them all and see what will suit best. Lots of great ideas here, I appreciate it ☺️

Our ponies’ paddock is a little far to reach from the house by hose pipe but we have been using one of those 40l rolling water barrels. However it is killing my mum (and me when I’m around) to lift the barrel up to the edge of the water trug to pour it in. Does anybody have any ingenious...

Maybe when you had rudd before, their eggs got carried to another nearby pond or water source, resulting in a population somewhere nearby which look similar to the ones you had before. Now an egg was transferred back the other way? I don’t think it’s that uncommon for fish to appear where there...

I’m all about the old school loop shedding blades too.

I’m so sorry to read that MCC is unwell, it can be so difficult to cope with and especially having lost your king so recently. I hope you are taking good care of yourself as well as of your feline ruler. I would like to echo others in suggesting you obtain a firm diagnosis if it is any way...

What a glorious boy and a lovely partnership! Happy birthday to him!

It’s such a sensitive topic but people do need to be realistic. I run a business selling riding holidays and completely understand and respect the need for suitable limits, I have also had to disappoint people many a time when they were over the limit for their chosen holiday too. Having said...

We also have post and rail with a single strand of electric along the top and it works great.

I’m sorry to come so late to this but wanted to say how sorry I am for your sad loss. He was a beautiful boy and lucky to have such a kind and dedicated owner. Hope you are holding up OK. Xx

Great job, OP! It’s amazing what some love and care can do. I expect your sweet horse will look and feel totally different a few months from now.

I have Horseware ones and they’ve been great. Always hear great things about Just Chaps.

I wore a pair on a riding trip once and wasn’t too enamoured in terms of comfort anyway… then I saw photos of myself in them and realised they are really not a good look for me. 🙈 I’m 5”8 and a size 12 but with larger than average thighs and I think I feel better in breeches.
