I would really agree that honesty is the best policy. Honesty being that you want better facilities to enjoy your horse and to achieve what you want to achieve. As a horse owner I’m sure they will be able to appreciate that. They may well be happy for example to just hack but presumably they...

No horsey suggestions but I’ve just finished listening to More Perfect. It’s about the Supreme Court but don’t let that put you off, it’s really interesting and very well produced. And as no one has mentioned it yet ‘my dad wrote a porno’ will have you laughing out loud. On a Crowded train...

I did a four day unguided ride and it was great. The location is lovely, and accommodation along the way is always friendly and cosy. Horses are well schooled but not riding school plods. Would definitely recommend to anyone

Alas not. To be honest he’s a hairy cob and we rarely leave the yard so had been no need! I’ve been trying to train myself not to buy unnecessary stuff which has now left me in this predicament!

There isn’t electricity at the yard unfortunately though to be honest the doofus has enough trouble with spray bottles let alone devil electronics! And with the run up to the dreaded day I don’t think I’ll have a chance to go buy chalk (didn’t buy this originally as thought it’d just turn to...

Needing to wash the beasts feathers in preparation for Boxing Day. Want to dry them quickly but no where near me sells wood flour. Could I use clean actived wood pellets? Am I being silly in thinking they’re basically the same stuff?

Thanks all. It seems it’s probably about right if a tad expensive. I wonder if there’s a deal to be done for a longer term arrangement for the next three months. Guess asking won’t hurt?

Asking for recommendations for a barefoot trimmer/ BF sympathetic farrier for my gelding. Just moved yards and having to change farrier and as a novice owner I don't know enough yet (but know he doesn't need shoe-ing) Horse based in bozeat. Any help appreciated.

As above

Sorry phone being weird I meant to say he's fine even with the Shetland and goats on the yard but seemed to have an issue with Sparkles lovely cob when we met him. Got full of himself and trying to show off (may be down to sparkles cob being entire) but he (sparks) really wasn't bothered and...

Mine is pretty sociable and amenable, not bothered

I love his nostrils!!!! Like perfect apostrophes

I'm sure it's been done before but which pictures of your horse make you smile every time? This is mine because in my simple brain it shows what we could achieve if I learn which buttons to push plus I think he looks simply stunning (he was trying to intimidate some highland coos in the next...
