Hi all Can anyone recommend a good (not expensive) transport company? I need to move yards this weekend and my friend has let me down at the last minute. I don't mind a trailer but it needs to be a biggun cos he's 17 hands. The new yard is only about 5-6 miles away but its not...

Hi all Does anyone know of any livery yards with vacancies for Assisted DIY/Part Livery? I live in West Byfleet so anywhere relatively local would be good. I have a budget of around £350 per month. Thanks Mel

Hi all As above really, wondered if someone could PM me his telephone number as I can't seem to find it on the web. Many thanks Mel

Can anyone recommend a good Part livery yard around the Woking area? Due to my work commitments, I'm struggling to keep my boy on DIY and need some help! I don't need a flashy competition yard as I'm just a happy hacker, but would prefer somewhere reasonably priced, hopefully with a school...

Just to prewarn all the Surrey people, we had about 15 rugs, body protectors, bags of feed and various other bits and bobs stolen on Wednesday night. They had used a bolt cutter to get through the main gate and had broken in to locked sheds but had only taken certain things and left others...

I'm considering loaning/selling mine so may be able to help. What does your OH want to do with it?

Hi Gucci Can you PM me some details?? Where is it? cost etc Ta Mel

My horse got really bad rubs while wearing overeach boots in the field. Maybe try the soft neoprene ones you can get from Premier Equine. As hadfos said, keep an eye out for rubs and mud and dirt on the boots when you take them off.

My friend bought an IW510 about three months ago and paid £3000. It was about a year old and had been used twice. I would say £2000 - £2300.

Thankies Snowflake!! I like being right!!!

Was having a discussion with one of the other liveries today and the subject of potatoes came up (random I know!). I was adamant that potato peelings shouldn't be fed to horses, but she thought they could. Can anyone tell me which of us is right? Ta

Hmm not sure if this is normal... The only time when my horse went lame after shoeing was when he had nail bind (nail was pricking the white line). Is you horse lame or just "off"?
