    Viovet

    I think it depends on whether it's in stock or not ... but they don't bother to tell you if it's not, which is a PITA. Ordered a fair amount of Royal Canin from them a year or so ago - had ordered before and all was fine, but this time it took so long that I had to go out and buy what I needed...

    Overnight, Madam Carrie Cat has eaten a whole P@H Tuna Steak!

    Oh no! I am so very sorry to read this, Ratface. It sounded so much like MCC had turned a corner. You're the loveliest owner, who treated both naughty little pieces of cat-hood like the royalty they deserved to be. I wish I could think of anything at all to type to make it better but I know I...

    Sky lantern ban petition

    Yes, they're scam events. Sadly, 45,000 people signed up thinking that sending these pestilential things into the sky is an ok thing to do ...

    Early morning riders

    I only ever ride first thing. Arrive at the yard just after half-six in winter, he has haylage at night and a bowl of Top Spec Top Chop Zero which he'll eat if there's nothing else left. Handful of nuts with his Cushing's meds, quick muck out and off. I'm very lucky that we can go straight...

    Goodnight, sleep tight my little girl. 😢

    So sorry! Awful when you lose them anytime, but a real shock when you have no warning. Sleep tight, cuddle bug Jess ... x

    More social licence questions - Horseball

    I refuse to recognise the term 'social licence'. If something is not illegal and my conscience is ok with it, that's fine by me and I don't a stuff what anyone else thinks.

    Red Gorilla products

    I've bought one Gorilla product - the 30cm-wide broom. Hate it! The handle unscrews from the base as you use it - I mean, who designs a broom that does that?!?

    overalls?

    Sorry OP - this is going to be a sidetrack, but it is very much linked to a few comments. (For the record, look at 3 Donkeys - https://www.3donkeys.co.uk/ - no, not my company!!) Not a go at you, Sossigpoker, but the price of manufacturing and running a small business these days makes me...

    Sensitive Topic: Rider Weight/Fitness

    I don't find looking after them or riding at the level I do keeps me as fit as I should be, nor as fit as I want to be. So these days (I'm 57) I go to the gym 3 or 4 days a week, doing weights and cardio. I am also aiming to lose about 7kgs or so this Spring - but that will only happen...

    Riding Tights - what on earth is the attraction?

    Exactly what I was after for winter! My Pepperell ones had worn out, and my Horseware ones are great, but def summer weight so too cold for winter hacking. Found some at Premier Equine (they are sticky bum ones, which I wasn't fussed by either) - high-waisted, 2 thigh phone pockets, very comfy...

    Top chop zero

    Mine scoffed the bucketful immediately for 3 nights in a row, then went 'meh' ... not sure ... and now only eats it when he's hungry and run out of forage.

    End of an era

    Agh no ... I am so very sorry. What an amazing character he was - I loved hearing about him and seeing his naughty moments on camera ... Sleep tight, Alf x
