They did that with a friend of mine over rebuilding a derelict farmhouse on their land. Once they’d got their claws in they wouldn’t let go. My friend ended up getting hold of some top planner from London to rectify it. And yet in the same borough someone has completely dug up two greenbelt...

I’m so sorry you’re having to deal with this. It sounds like you have hit a jobsworth on a power trip. There seem to be a few around, and once they’ve got their claws into people they seem to love it. I hope things are easy to resolve. Thankfully our planning sept, who can be a pain, didn’t...

Sounds like Laura Collett is back in the saddle again and ready to get out competing. 😮

That’s such a shame. Always loved watching him. I don’t think there has been any news on Louisa Milne. Must be a tough time for her family and team too.

We have stable mats in a few sections of the hard standing turn out. My arthritic mare used to choose to stand on them. We get plenty of frost and I never noticed anything slipping on them any more than they would on concrete. I tend to sprinkle a few bits of straw around if a heavy frost is...

I think I’ve got two that I no longer use. Barely used.

She was one of the greats. Someone who I looked forward to watching. Always smiling and humble. I hope she enjoys her retirement.

Prices seem to have massively risen over the past few years. I’d have said she should have been around £4k, but nowadays I wouldn’t have been suprised if you’d paid £10k. At the end of the day you could afford what you paid and you’re happy with her, and that’s what matters.

I’m not being critical. I remember someone else who was injured years ago saying that they got great care because they were on the Olympic team/pathway. I had good private insurance when I worked with horses.

I saw a post that Laura had had her shoulder repaired already. Amazing how quickly they can get things done. I had to wait six months for a similar operation on mine. I wonder how long it will take to get back to fitness? Took me months, but again, I think she’ll probably have access to...

Perhaps it’s fate that you go on a different year when there are more entries…

She did say she’d be missing the beginning of the evening season due to the operation, so I’d think that will include badminton? It’s warming up to be a rocky season already, what with Laura’s fall, Izzy Taylor’s broken leg and poor Louisa Milne Home’s horrible fall.

I think she’s happy with the pressure, coming back from having her baby so quickly.. She can do pressure! I had a quick look the other day. Did I remember correctly that Colorado Blue is entered again? I’d love to see them win. It’s about time. Or Emily King or Bubby. But I’m really...

Wouldn’t it be really difficult to hold?

I’ve just gone back through my messages. This was them and à screenshot of their message about it. I was considering doing it for my cafe, but never went ahead as someone else nearby did.
