    Can anyone advise? Adult looking for 1st Horse!

    Yes, thanks for that - if i want to feel depressed, I can just read the above comment! Don't sniff at the amount of money i have thank you, you don't even know me or my circumstances. "If you can afford to keep a horse"?! Brings back memories of being bullied in school... Thank you to...

    Can anyone advise? Adult looking for 1st Horse!

    I've never thought of riding schools! I will try the few i have in my area, not that i'm too confident on the phone - can't get my words out and sound a right divvy!

    Can anyone advise? Adult looking for 1st Horse!

    Ok I'm a newbie on here so apologies if this is in the wrong place! I'm looking to buy (or loan with view to buy, but they're very rare I gather!) a horse/pony 14h - 16.2, any colour/breed but would prefer a gelding. Unfortunately my budget is £900! I am part loaning at the moment so am...
