    7.5t lorries-no more grannies rights! Is this true?!

    I have just looked on the DVLA website to check the categories on my licence, and it still says I can drive a 7.5t lorry until 2047. There is nothing on there to say I will have to take a test....I have heard the rumours, but I'm not convinced they're true....?

    Have you managed to find a home? DO you know what she is like with other cats?

    Is Cambridge too far for you?

    Very fat pony Lame???

    Hopefully, when you explain the situation, he will be advising that he needs to see the pony tomorrow!!!

    Am I being unreasonable??

    I don't think anyone has said anything harsh at all! Far from it! No one has said you should be out there poo picking, just that it is a sensible idea to draw up a rota for you OR your sharers to fulfil your side of the task. I'm sure none of us think you are having an 'easy' time of it...

    Am I being unreasonable??

    In which case, it doesn't sound like the poo picking is actually the problem. If I were you, I would speak to your landlord (tactfully) to see whether you have any chance of going back to sole use. If that isn't an option, I would be inclined to find an alternative livery, because all these...

    Am I being unreasonable??

    I'd draw up a rota and then either yourself, or your sharers do your days. It actually isn't the livery's fault that you're pregnant, or a high risk pregnancy, so I can see why she wouldn't be more lenient to allow for this.....I have poo picked/mucked out through 4 pregnancies with chronic...

    Why didn't i know this existed until now?! For hacking people

    It isn't accurate....it is showing a bridleway around the farm where I keep my horses.....which is definitely not a public right of way!

    Bird scarer petition

    *chuckle*....I started to reply to the post to which you refer, and deleted my reply....! I walk past gas bangers several times a day....sometimes I am unlucky enough to be within a metre when they go off, and they don't make the ground shake!

    Bird scarer petition

    Just to play devils advocate, was there a livery yard there before you bought/moved into your property? Perhaps the farmer in charge of the gas gun is equally as upset at the increased neighing in the area!? There isn't really a way of turning them off at night unless he goes round and...

    Bird scarer petition

    If you bought a house next to a railway, would you start a petition to ban the trains going past 24 hours a day!?

    Cushings induced laminitis

    To all those advising the fb group, I have joined it, and I have posted, however, other than the original reply, I haven't had any feedback, nor can I find the answers to my probably-unanswerable questions. My yard is suitable for no-grass turnout....we are very lucky to have a big yard inside...

    Cushings induced laminitis

    :-( The seizure thing sounds scary....it's a massive minefield isn't it? I have fed her low sugar everything (apart from unsoaked hay) since I bought her 7 years ago. She was massively overweight when she arrived and slowly but surely she has lost about 150kg and now looks on the 'slim' side...

    Cushings induced laminitis

    I was soaking her hay....but tbh, she doesn't like it, and the vet said since she has always had unsoaked hay before, and the laminitis was due to the cushings, we have decided that for quality of life she can have hay that she enjoys.....

    Cushings induced laminitis

    Ok....so small update and if possible I would love to hear about any experiences.... So the vet came last week to xray hooves.....there is a small degree of movement in one hoof, but nothing that they don't think can come right with trimming. The farrier came on Friday to trim away the excess...
