One of the more entertaining (& quick) outfits I've seen was a 'polo pony' - horse covered in empty wrappers with polos dangling down from it's mane - tail tied up ready for polo sport action and handler sporting polo attire and holding a mallet.... I still chuckle thinking about it 8 years later!

Thinking of you :-(

Don't get me wrong, I love my Roeckl gloves (Chester most of the year, fingerless when hot although now have stupid finger tan lines, and lined ones for winter) but don't find them as hard-wearing as they used to be - anyone else think they are less robust?

He's lovely- hope you have a great trial month and all goes well with the purchase - hooray! (and of course he isn't too big for you)

fabulous photos, great captions and a lot of jealousy from me - looks like you had a completely wonderful time - i want to go and play in the sea... (daydreaming of a trip to Norfolk)

I'm a big fan of Allen & Page Fast Fibre - it's a dry pellet, which you add double volume of water too - makes a nice slop great for mixing in supplements without fear of waste! Very few calories, non-heating or fattening and mine LOVES it! They will happily send you a sample if you contact them!

Much better to leave direct instructions, than leave it up to someone's 'initiative'

Gorgeous - I have such a soft spot for coloured horses without predominantly white legs!

He's lovely - so pleased you are enjoying getting to know him, and liking what you discover!! Hope you have lots of happy years together :-)

The picture looks more like 20 years old!

I'm another vote for walking away - you got a vetting done to see if the horse is likely to be fit for purpose, sadly your vet feels he's not. If the potential of this horse wasn't important to you, you wouldn't have asked a professional for their opinion (and spent a few hundred pounds)... now...

Call me a cynic, but this advert has done exactly what I think it set out to acheive - get it noticed! There are lots of ponies for sale like little Rosay - but this advert has got people noticing it and talking about it - hence more likely to sell the little cutey! Looking at the...

I love mine - keeps horse's back dry in heavy rain, and doesn't seem to get hot - I only use it on wet days, takes seconds to attach/detach! I ended up buying a 6'9" liner for a 6'6" rug - not sure if rug had stretched, but it was a much better fit - well worth the investment in my opionion!

Slightly off topic, but the liners are great - they fit all Horsewear fly rugs/sweet-itch hoodies made post 2006. The liners come up small, so I use a 6'9" liner under a 6'6" rug - not sure if the rug stretched, but it's a much better fit! Just a very thin waterproof liner that doesn't seem to...

OMG - that' awful, makes me feel sick :-( no animal could ever deserve that
