    Help! Where can I buy very small size ADULT breeches?!

    I'm having a huge struggle to buy small size adult breeches this year. I used to rely on Laurie Garelli size 24's but this year they changed their sizing models and nothing fits. I can't fit kids breeches, and am feeling like a freak. There must be other adults who are a size 24 (uk size 6) who...

    Shout out to non-horsey OH!

    My OH started out really enthusiastic and supportive but it waned quickly and sharply. I know that his disappearing-support is not because he's mean or cruel, but because he's afraid. I have to remember this or I feel really mad at him. When we talked and I really pinned him down to tell me why...

    Vettings and X-rays help

    Why don't you insure? Can you help me? It's a genuine question (not a judgey one!!) as I genuinely thought everyone must do... It's very pricey and the must be reasons not to do it. Is it just to do with money or does it offer other benefits?

But whilst I'm not very rich, I don't want to compromise on comfort (me or hoss...) are you able to share...

    Will buying a 14hh pony restrict my riding and competing? help!

    I have begun that most wonderful and terrifying of all searches - for a new horse! There's so much I could ask advice on...but this is restricted to ONE topic. I've found a pony I like - but she's tiny - just 14hh. A fairly stocky Connie tho. I am in love already (after just the one viewing) and...

    NH-friendly livery yards in East of England

    Nope but I feel your pain! I want to continue with my Parelli training, alongside conventional riding (English not western) and have been hunting for livery too. I haven't had many people say "ooh yes I like that" or anything similar. The best is neutrality/tolerance. A lot of people have...
