Hey thanks for the constructive replies! :) He is an amazing little dressage pony and naturally carries himself properly when I ask him. He came 3rd in a novice last week but I didn't get any pictures unfortunately. When jumping though he isn't quite as honest as he looks! And he can get...

Hey I've never really introduced my boy so thought it was about time! I have a 14.2 reg connemara called shuffles (he doesn't shuffle tho! ) He is 13 this year but I've had him since just before he turned 7. After being out on full loan for a few years while I was working 300 miles away...

Ah you've reassured me! I thought I was going mad, I am still mucking out in a t-shirt but this other livery is asking me daily if I'm going to add more rugs!? She's the lady with a hairy pony in a hw rug with neck and under rug, seriously!

I'd have to agree with this I think. Since I got my horse back off loan last month, I've changed lots. Most importantly I am happy, I have a reason to get up each morning (and get up EARLY at that!!) To go and muck him out and give him some fuss before i turn him out. I had got into some really...

A bit off topic but I feel nostalgic seeing another person from Riding Mill :) It's a lovely area, I lived in Northumberland for four years, worked in Hexham hospital. First living in acomb then between Corbridge and RM - in a cottage a mile before the pub, I loved it :) The artisam in Corbridge...

Hiya :) I just realised this is my first post (I made an account but forgot the details!) My name is Sarah :) I've just got my boy back after he's been on full loan for three years, while I was working away from home. Now I have him back I'm trying to fit in as much riding as possible and...
