    Best all round hat for local level riding?

    I’ve got such a small head I find skull caps don’t look as nice they seem to be more chunky. Maybe some come up differently. Thankyou

    Best all round hat for local level riding?

    Any reccomendations on the best hat for low level competions?

I have rubber matting down but my mare is quite wet and apparently this might be good for my stinker, she is currently on shavings, I have had a flax based bedding before and it seemed to attract rats? Any pros and cons would be...

    Has anyone tried shrinking denim breeches before?

    Send them to me I'm a pro at shrinking things especially my husbands very expensive favourite jumper. It then seemed to magically disappear until I had a few too many drinks and owned up to what looked my 8 year olds sons jumper!

    WWYD Husband doesn't want me to jump anymore

    Personally I don't find this controlling behaviour, I completely understand where your husband is coming from I think I would feel the same with a young family, my children are 5 and 7 and I can see how having little people who depend on you can change your perspective on high risk sports...

I only wish I had more money to kit her out with a cart and train her to drive she is fab little girl. I like the idea of outgrown ponies...
