    Can you recommend some jodphers for a skinny size 8?

    I thought I posted a response I would try child's or Maids sizes. Most makes provide these so you should have a wide choice of style, colour and price.

    Please Help! Running out of ideas

    To be honest, and this is just my opinion, but I think even £1000 is a high price for such a pony. Sorry.

    Controlling Ragwort

    The gas wands will do nothing as they simply burn off the visible parts, and any plant will grow back very quickly. They certainly will not affect the root which it is necessary to destroy with Ragwort.

    When did you...?

    I can only remember wanting too see or touch every single equine from before I could walk. Sadly my mum did not approve.

    Leaving horses tied to lorries unattended.

    I have sAdly seen many serious accidents and incidents over the years with horses and ponies left tied to or inside horseboxes and trailers unattended. It cannot always be completely unavoided sadly, as things such as toilet breaks arise. I have seen legs through vehicle sides, horses galloping...

    Are these fly bites or something else?(pics)

    I am sorry to say they certainly do not look like fly bites to me. May I suggest you call your vet after Easter.

    Anyone seen this???

    My goodness. Non of the three riders could have done more. The law really needs to be stricter with mobile phone usage whilst driving. This advert is a good start in warning motorists.

    Vaccinations and older horses

    Other than Tetanus - which I feel is vital - I do not vaccinate the oldies. Fortunately for me, my land is not close to other horses including passing horses.

    Rats, rats... & more rats!!!

    I have noticed there seems to be moderated and bigger rats this year. I am afraid I resort to using poison, very carefully.

    New horse arrives in the morning would you freeze mark?

    I would most definately recommend you have him Freezemarked as soon as you can. From the safety aspect, I would also recommend having him done on the shoulder so that the mark is visible whilst being ridden. If you wish to show him, Judges should not mark you down at all.

    Colour experts! What colour IS my horse??

    I am by no means an expert when it comes to colour, for me, black and white is Piebald! I am clearly showing my age. To me he is Palamino - and beautiful.
