I've got these cute little stirrup Key rings with my horses names engraved into them. Got the last one from etsy and its lovely.

for me, its because I love mud!

I've found the Amigo mio's to be the best, light weight and fit well around the chest! I've had so many others that are too thick and too tight on the chest that they've rubbed!

it's certainly getting that way! my livery has been increased by 1/3 feet trimming has more than doubled feed costs are through the roof, probably double hay costs, I've tried various suppliers to cut the cost. everyone is increasing their fees by £5, but when you have two or three horses...

sell the 14 year old now, while he's still young enough that people won't be put off by his age! if you're not enjoying riding out, which I feel your pain about, then there is no point in carrying on for another year or two. Selling a 14 year old will be easier than selling a 16 year old....

I'm very sad to report that after 2 months of paying my increased livery bill, I've been hit with another increase. Another 15ish percent! I will now paying £10 less than what it would have originally cost per horse! not much improvement on the feed front! our farmer has run out of big bales...

Thanks for all of the suggestions guys For those that feed the mole Valley feed, are you able to send me the details of the ingredients, I was looking for them online yesterday but they don't seem to be published anywhere My good doer is only on 1 tiny feed a day for his gut balancer and...

thank you! unfortunately mine are already on grass livery and have been for many years! my geldings are both good doers so I'm having to strip graze at the moment but thinking the best option might be to get the muzzles out and let them have more grass, so my mare who needs more, can munch it...

I've used them in the past to do a blanket clip! and didn't have any issues with them! but now I have got big cordless clippers and i'd not dream of going back to the small ones! I do use them as a trimmer though. they're supper quiet

It's been a while since I've been here but wondering how everyone is coping with rising costs of keeping and feeding horses? I feel like I'm constantly worrying and stressing! feed costs have double in the last few years. grass has been like rocket fuel this year so I've had to restrict...

I spend £30 max in primark on myself every pay day! went to Robinsons today, spent £50 just on fly sprays, hoof stuff and a new whip! not to mention the stuff I ordered on ebay on Tuesday and the rest of the stuff ill be paying for. farrier Friday, livery on the 1st july, vet bills for jabs...

I have a pony I can't catch and my vets never managed to check him over, they were happy to send me sedalin to give him before they came out to do vac's so I could try and catch him! unfortunately I still couldn't get him!

Don't worry, not forgotten, we've been hacking out alone for 3 months as I'm on a private yard with no one to ride with, he's started to stop and refuse to move, wonder if he's getting bored! I tried to ride with someone from the village yesterday but one thing after another, it all went pete...

I posted yesterday, thinking about bring my 29yr old back into work, to help with my 4yr olds hacking so today we went out, my friend lead her and we rode behind! he was 100% better and she was the best she'd ever been! so pleased with them both! a little token pic

yeh its becoming a right pain and he's been sooo confident up until now! so I don't want him to lose his confidence! my friend has offered to ride with me! and I will make sure its only once a week but just to make it a bit more interesting for him!! From Aug I have a new woman renting...
