    Where to sell second hand stuff?

    Waiting to be accepted onto a couple of Cheshire Facebook sites. In the meantime I went on an eBay frenzy today, got 20 people watching a set of thermatex wraps I didn't even remember buying! Forgot how addictive eBay was!

    good hacking- where to concentrate livery yard search SW London

    About 20 years ago (!) I used to ride out from a farm off the effingham common road (hook farm, it's still there) and we used to be able to hack for about 4 hours in at least 3 different directions. Really was fantastic even though the m25 and a3 are so close it's just an area really well...

    DancingKris I'm in Hale too! No horse at the moment but if you want to meet for a coffee ever let me know. I've got a 2 year old son so can talk horses or babies! X

    Where to sell second hand stuff?

    Hi all, I've not used these forums in years, nice to see them doing well. I've got a load of horse stuff (rugs, travel boots etc) and wondered if anyone knew the best place to sell stuff second hand? I'll use eBay as a fall back but wondered if there was anything better. I'm in altrincham...

    Horse riding in central Manchester

    would you travel out as far as Marple? I've got a friend trying to find a sharer (assuming she didn't find someone this weekend) so PM me with your email address and i'll pass it on. I also wouldn't loan one from Ashton Hall, too many reasons why not!

    a view from the side... i've been fence judging this weekend....

    Hi Diggerbez i'm the person who almost fence judged with you yesterday, sounded like your fence was way more exciting than the one i ended up at (number 3 - great view of the course and everyone bar one jumped it beautifully). I could have lent you my factor 30 suncream (having been burnt...

    Ignorant riders on the road

    I agree - this really annoys me, a nod would be fine (appreciating not everyone can always take their hands off the reins, or smile!).

    exercise to get riding fit which isn't riding?

    Pilates - and don't worry about not fitting in! I started it about 6 months ago and there are all sorts of shapes and sizes & ages there, it's not just for thin people! And whoever asked about it being good for a bad back, yes it can be. That's one of the main reasons I took it up (and because I...

    Has anyone ever written to their horse's old owner?

    I sold my horse last year (to a dealer, not ideal but unavoidable at the time) and i've love it if a new owner got in touch. I'm desperate to know where she is, but daren't ring the dealer in case anything bad happened. It's a case of sticking my head in the sand, but i'd love to know!

    I can't remember. Sure it was a Pullein-Thompson one, i'll have to get my mum to look through the pile!

    Job/career! What do you do? Do you enjoy it?!

    Like Kittykins I did zoology at Uni - I wanted to be a vet but didn't really try hard enough to get in. In hindsight I'm glad i'm not a vet, not sure it would have been for me. So instead I joined an accountancy firm and qualified as an accountant which I really enjoyed, plus the money's a lot...

    Pony books - which ones did you read?

    My mum collects children's books, especially horsey ones so I carefully re-read them every so often. I still love Rosina Copper, makes me cry every time! I re-read all the Jinny ones recently after finding them on ebay - i was prompted by a thread like this one on here a couple of years ago...
