I have a friend who is looking for livery in the Cheltenham area. Preferably DIY with 24/7 summer turn out and daytime winter turnout. And a very large stable. Nothing is needed immediately, but your suggestions would be welcome. Feel free to PM me with details if you prefer. cheers!

Blimey.....a reply!!! ;) It was great!! We had sun, rain, thunder, lightening and a hail storm, actually several hail storms. The pony was great for his first time out and jumped everything. Having not been hunting for years I was surprised at how much it all came back to me. Can't wait...

Never seen one used. But there is a site for a particular make http://www.stablemaid.com.au/questions.htm Apparently you can even empty it while you are riding

Thanks for all your replies on this one. I will make sure my friend reads the thread and pass on the messages. Cheers

I am out with the Pentyrch on Saturday and I can't wait. It will be my first time out in ooooohhhhh years and years. I have even bought new boots for the occasion! :grin: I will let you know how it all goes.

Need some advice on this one. There are 3 horses in our barn, all in a line. One of the ponies windsucks badly when in. My friend is worried that her youngster will pick up this habbit by copying the other pony as he picks things up quite quickly. The pony is worst around feeding time (they...

No, not mine! My boy has got quite a fluffy coat now (he is convalescing so not clipped) but has an itchy patch on his chest. He has only started scratching since he has been wearing his rugs. I sent them all to be cleaned and it has started since. I clipped his chest and have been washing it...

We are really laid back about this kind of thing on our yard. But we are lucky in that the winter fields are about 5m away from the end of one of the stable blocks. Most owners have their stables done in the morning, ready for the evening, so it is no hassle at all to pop them in. Even if a...

No opening hours for my yard. All the owners ask is that you ring/text them if you are returning after dark unexpectedly, so they know who it is coming down the drive. Not much to ask really.

[ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] A classic example of humans thinking like a human would and not how a horse would. [/ QUOTE ] Oh I agree! At a HT earlier this year my OH said to Muffinino "Why can't she just teach him to behave" He just does not get it that horses do not think like humans. We...

Oooooh this kind of thing makes me mad. She wants to do a bit more research before inflicting her views on the world. Yes I do agree with a few of the points she makes, but lets face it she has picked up on some of the extreeme negative examples out there. Did horses and the world come into...
