    Fell off in my hitair and it hurt like hell

    I can wear a jumper and coat underneath and just about fit my fist in when I've not got these on. I bought from hitair online and just referred to their sizing guide. Perhaps I'm just a wimp, looks like it's not a common problem with hit air vests then!

    Fell off in my hitair and it hurt like hell

    I've sadly had the opportunity to try out my hitair vest this week :o Horse jumped huge (I didn't)However my instructor felt the vest contributed to my fall and I couldn't breath afterwards, it was awful.

    Assisted DIY

    £3 for walk in at my yard, extra for rug pick feet etc. Considering my little ponies field is 10 metres from stable it's a bit steep! I guess they want to discourage extra services and encourage full livery instead.

    Welsh Section D's .. tell me about the breed :-)

    My D was a cuddly boy on the ground, liked people, very nosey. Talented at jumping but a spooky idiot to hack alone and a good buck on him!

    Anyone else finding weather so hard they want to give up?

    Ihotse I could have written your post! I'm wind speed obsessed too! My mare nearly flattened me bringing her in yesterday so despite the lovely sunshine today I've kept her in after hacking her as I'm just to scared to lead her in from the field with wind speeds over 20, its sad :-(

    BHS Loan Agreement - From Loaner's Perspective?

    I have my welsh boy out on loan and modified the BHS loan contract to suit, however I don't feel it's really legally binding. The most important think with a loan is that you enter into it with a person you have already assessed to be reliable and honest then it's a useful reference guide should...

    Mare won't load- dually headcollar a few questions

    Hi I was hoping for some advise. I'd love to get my mare out again with the bloodhounds but I can't load her to get her there. Tried yesterday with 3 helpers, lunge lines, bridle and even the gentle waggling of a broom. Eventually got 4 feet on the trailer but wouldn't have been able to get her...

    Loan crisis

    Yes it's really annoying they've gone back on their word, yes it's all your hard work that's made the mare, but now you have a great relationship with a really versatile allrounder! If they agree to sell her to you and you can afford her then you're the winner! I agree with amymay go in fairly...

    First Time Out With EABH - Wow what fun!

    My first go out too yesterday on hound exercise with the EABH on my new mare and we loved it. The loading, mounting and first 5 minutes were the worst bit of the day. Thank you spotty horse for coming over and offering a friendly face when I needed one! After I was on board I had a brilliant...
