    Is buying a youngster an option?

    This could have been me! Bought mine at 8 and now at 13 (next week) we are only just about there! I love her to bits but don't want that again...so I bought the baby. 8 months old and an absolute superstar on the ground. When it comes to backing time, she'll go to a pro to be started, but I am...

    A bit of a WWYD?

    Thank you! I am relieved too! Now just to wait till 1st April! But knowing I am leaving has made it such a better experience!

    UPDATE! Thanks all for your responses - and they are pretty much my thoughts entirely so... I am moving. The stars have aligned and an INCREDIBLY rare space at the yard my mare is at has come up so we are off on 1st April. I trust the yard owner implicitly and my mare is SO happy there...

    A bit of a WWYD?

    Ok so to answer - it was a joint decision for the both of us and was only started in November and has been up and usable since then, but the roof needed replacing as we were sold some dodgy panels from a very well know store. I didn't think it fair to make her pay when it wasn't ready. So has...

    Haha yes the 6 ponies....that's another story! There was only ever supposed to be 2. Then a little shetland foal arrived - fine. Takes no space at all. Then another one last week. Then a message to put 2 more on over summer.

    Thank you. I had thought this but then didn't know if that would look a bit like I'm being the bad guy and by not paying, perhaps she would then make me leave. But yes the invoice is sounding better and better

    See this is the issue. She has a large family who she is currently home-schooling (coming to an end next week!) so can't ever get there. As the nice person I am, I looked after her girl as I was there looking after mine but now I am being ignored I feel less generous! Sadly, there are another 2...

    Yes most likely. Definitely think the invoice idea is good. She is fully aware that it is not me out of pocket it is my dad. Now I hate the idea of being in debt to people, let alone someone's parent! But that's just me.

    So the idea would be if I left, she could either buy it off of me at cost price (so the other £300), I'd take it and buy the rest, or I'd sell it and she'd get her money back

    A bit of a WWYD?

    OK so just after some ideas from people. Currently share a field with 2 ladies (1 whom I rent from - she doesn't own it though - let's call her A) and another young lady - B. I moved on in November and had the conversation with A about us putting up a shelter. I said my dad and I would build it...

    Joint Supplements

    Hi everyone My mare is approaching 13 and generally in great health but she is in quite heavy work so was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a good overall joint supplement to keep them the best they can be - prevention better than cure and all that! Thanks in advance!
