    I think when it comes to the lesson - she should have a word with her instructor to ask the other livery to leave during her private lesson, just say you are feeling an impact from the distraction & would prefer it wasn't a fully observed lesson! The instructor should be able to deal with this...

    omeprazole reduces windsucking but scopes clear?

    Silicon seat breeches and tights - should we be buying these?

    I don't think silicon riding tights fall into the category of fast fashion though to be fair - even cheaper versions I've bought have lasted 18 months to even 2 or 3 years - fast fashion is more mass produced one wear disposable clothing which I don't think any of us aspire to when it comes to...

    The ongoing question.... travel boots and tail bandage or nothing?

    I use stable wraps boots - the premier equine ones, I only used to travel him with front ones but it seems I've just heard from friends about a host of horsebox injuries so I've gotten a bit cautious and use back ones aswell now. I never used to put back ones on him as younger horse because...

    Red mare - is temper/sensitivity a myth?

    Stereotypes are just that - stereotypes! They come about due to long ideas or stories being accumulated and its usually only stories worth telling so you dont actually hear about the other side about the very quiet chestnut mares. Its like the stereotype that the Irish love drinking - because...

    Trainer being a bit "heavy handed" with my horse

    I think the point is OP didnt say anything at the time so there is no point in saying 'you should have or I would have' because she didnt - for whatever reason. So now you are left in the position of actually needing this trainer (rightly or wrongly) and how to address the situation. I would...

    Has the bubble burst for Le Mieux new season colours?

    If I like something - Lemieux or not, I'll buy it 🤷‍♀️ I also buy custom saddles and bridles, get regular lessons, get regular bodywork and treatment for both him & me so if also want a whole wardrode of matchy crap then I will! I only like one colour though so if find something in that...

I think if I was in this situation I would want to...
