Thank you, I will call vosa and update just in case anyone else needs the answer in future

I don’t ride, my daughters do and compete lots so always busy. I thought we were done, then whoops we had a 14 year old and a 9 year old…and a new born baby boy so completely different. He has fitted in perfectly; he adores the horses, he was about 4 days old when he attended his first ode and...

Lovely people in my phone, I saw a post from 2007 but not sure of rule changes/updates so felt it prudent to ask… Just buying a “new to us” horsebox and would like to jaz up the exterior to modernise it a little. My daughter is hoping to make a name for herself as *insertname*eventing like...

I came across your post and wondered whether you ever completed the NS academy. My daughter is interested in doing it too. Also did you find any other interesting online courses to complete? She is waiting for her place at saddlery training in May and so needs to fill her time between now and...

This is brilliant thank you all. She does over reach so they are a definite requirement. She is quite narrow so I would prefer protection from brushing if jumping. I will be honest, when hacking and I know it’s bonkers but my friend recently had a dog attack and the only thing that has...

I have looked at old posts but as there seem to be new styles hitting the market all the time I felt it prudent to ask in case advice has changed at all. Bought a new horse for daughter to event and naturally when you buy a cheap pony it comes with a full wardrobe but expensive horses comes...

Horzehoods do a beautiful Tudor shirt, it’s stunning with their competition breeches that have a coloured seat (we went grey but I’m loving the navy) just helps with the vpl and feeling a little more confident at shows when it’s that time of the month :)

there are some really great videos online. This website is also great https://www.mainlandaggregates.co.uk/riding-arena-construction-guide

Thank you lovely. We are first to view on Sunday so I know we need to act swiftly but I will need to arrange a vetting too so with the best will in the world that will be this time next week…I just don’t want to waste anyones time…if heaven forbid it did show something up with LLH then we might...

15.2 and 7 years old

Thank you all! Definitely given me food for thought. Her feet were done last week, I wouldn’t delay on that and she is up to date with everything. I wouldn’t expect anything wrong, she is currently in the form of her life qualifying for everything we have tried out for, mostly on the first time...

I know this is a little back to front but I thought I would ask for opinions on here. My daughter is keen to progress in the eventing sphere, the horse that she currently has is incredible but not the horse for the job. She has been completely awesome and achieved so much on her but she is a...

you have been great thank you. Frank at Acorn does also have a small selection of second hand saddles, I have tried a couple of them but they aren't even close with a re-flock but I wasn't in a position to buy new before! I have had Millie at the little tack room keeping on top of the reflocking...

sbloom I have been a lurker for a while and really hoped you would have time to answer me as you make so much sense! A good fitter is something I need to find you are right and the trouble is for everyone I know of down here, I hear good and bad about them all, its so difficult as I don't ride...

I need some assistance please wise people inside my computer. Previously with the childrens' ponies I used a saddler that I was happy with but during their last visit I was really unimpressed, then looked them up on here and seemingly, I wasn't the only one and I found out a few things that I...
