Quick update... Rang to advise there was no sign of my jacket, was advised I would be sent a gilet as the offer had changed, politely told them I wasn't happy about that as it was the jacket that really needed and that was the offer around at the time I took out the policy. A couple of days...
Tom looks after my boys too. Managed to get Ivan once as he had regular visits to a yard I was on and he praised the work that Tom had done previously. Asha is correct, Tom did train with him.
Thanks for the reminder devilwoman! I took out a policy in February and haven't received my jacket yet. I'll ring them tomorrow and let you know what they say....
Thank you everyone for taking the time to respond. I think I will add salt to his diet and see how he gets on (could do without having to pay for new fencing at yard!). I have also reviewed his diet in full and think I will also seek some advice from a couple of feed manufacturers, Dodson and...
I have had a quick look through past posts on this matter, and I am thinking that the issue is purely down to insufficient salt in my boys diet (he refuses to use any type of salt lick for the purpose it's meant for - they just become bum rubbing devices!).

Dear Hovis, I have only just started to read your diary entries and am already a huge fan. Looking forward to reading your book and so sorry you weren't able to go to the launch party, life is just not fair sometimes is it?
There is a lady on the yard I'm at who's horse has intermittent head shaking, and like your's it stops during the winter, but isn't obvious throughout the whole summer, which is how my hay-fever works - I seem to react to some pollens more than others!!!
She's currently riding in a nose net...

Nearly gone - but I wish the weather would make it's mind up. One minute I'm covered in hair and the next it's decided to stay put!!! Are we having a summer this year???
Just checked my credit card bill and saw money had been taken ... :D Then checked the amount and it doesn't look as though I have been allocated any tickets for Eventing I had wanted to see :-( My partner will be happy though, looks like he has his football and Basketball ...
Darn it ...
In the interests of getting started sooner rather than later, I'm just about to head off to the local saddlery and get some Global Herbs Calmer - see how we get on with that and if not I have plenty of other suggestions to try. Thank you again everyone!
