oh and you get the free entertainment- watching me fall off lol

my yard is ideal for me and i never feel judged and not aware of any bitching. Near Ammanford, Enfys knows of it and box_of_frogs is based there too. Good size sand school but it is £3 a week to use it, but very reasonable rates and I am on part livery :)

i broke my arm (humerus) monday getting bucked off my loan horse..... no idea what you're all on about;):o

Am currently typing one-handed so please excuse grammar/spelling :) I got thrown off my loan horse on Monday evening while doing canter work in the school. He wasn't happy that there were ywo geldings in the next feild and had thrown a few bucks/bunny hops earlier in the session but had been...

Oh lol good idea with the polos/pinning I wasn't disagreeing with your opinion of sec D's, just hadn't heard that before :) There's a Sec D on our yard (I think two but I'm not sure if box_of_frogs' is a sec D or not) and she is quiet and easy... but also a tart and likes to tease the boys!!!

OP- Why can the same be said for Section D's? Are they prone to being uppity? This must be stereotype I haven't heard about yet? Blue raced for something like 10 years (perhaps a bit more?) as he's 13 now and just retired last year. I think if racing is looked upon as a business, there's only...

Mine was not very long ago, I am ashamed to say! Out riding on the mountain with a friend and my mobile started ringing. My kids were with a childminder so really wanted to answer, but couldn't dig my phone out... finally managed but dropped my crop in the meantime. So I hop offboard to...

LOL I love it 'the pts brigade can pts-off' hehe If it was me I'd have a contract as you suggested, maybe permenant loan?

Not worth a pound in the current market, you best send him to me :D :D No idea, sorry, but as pp said, he's so adorable! His mum is a looker, too!

PTS. Absoultely. And shame on them for using a child as a fundraising symbol. Shame, shame, shame. I would never use my children like that.

I'm in Swansea, so my costs wouldn't mean much to you I guess. Short answer; No, you can't afford a horse, unless you are upper class or the Queen. Can't afford children, either. So go ahead, take the plunge, buy the horse and as long as you are willing to make cuts elsewhere, lose...

I like NP. Didn't know she was also those other ID's.... though I fear she is secretly a man (what with all the logical solutions and realism) :D

I have bought a synthetic 'Thorowgood Maxam' saddle with adjustable gullet, that's actually not what it was sold as (ebay) but I like it anyway so will keep it. Blue has been measured with a gullet gadge and should be a medium, so bought a medium gullet bar and tried the saddle on him. It...

I live in Swansea area, too, and beside a relatively large common where quite a few horses wander about. They tend to tether one or two and leave the younger/quieter ones to waner, assuming they will stay with the 'herd'. I never really understood the idea of tethering horses- I fundamentally...

There are LOADS of coloured horses on the commons around here (Treboeth). I guess at least they usually make a reasonable height and are generally quiet (I know, 'generally' is a bad word with horses lol) but the overbreeding is causing some pretty odd conformations, I'm no expert but there are...
