    Anyone using an Insta360 GO camera?

    I’ve seen some footage which looks great but there is no helmet mount suitable that I can find on the website. I’m wondering, if anyone has one, how you mount it to helmet, looks small enough to sit beneath the peak of a silk? Primary use is for off road, I’ve a Techalogic DC1 for road work.

    Thank you all, got it saved and edited now. Will definitely have a look at the viidure app too.

    Lol, that’s why I’m so frustrated - should be like editing an iPhone video but I just can’t get the ‘bookends’ to part!

    Hi all, hoping for a bit of tech support whilst Techalogic are closed. I need to trim a 15 sec clip out of a video for the police and am about ready to launch the blooming thing! First question is ‘do I need a PC to edit the footage?’. I’m trying to do it through the app on my phone but I...

    Does anybody use a Micklem as a bitless bridle?

    Hey, I can't help re the bitless side of things I'm afraid. My boy, like yours, couldn't wait to get his bridle off before he would rub on hay net, stable door, me etc, though the irritation seemed higher up than you're describing. I tried the standard Micklem last summer; the first time I took...

    Mexican Grackle Comfort bridle - current suggestions please

    Pretty self-explanatory I think! I've run searches on here and Googled relentlessly but I'm beginning to run rings around myself now 😂. Needs to be a comfort, preferably cut away headpiece with noseband attachments on the headpiece rather than a traditional 'up-and-over' single...

    Jekyll and Hyde lameness - I'm stumped! Difficult one for you...

    Another vote for abscess. Several years ago my boy had a few months of very intermittent, mainly mild lameness. Vet was involved from early on, farrier also, and both were stumped. Eventually, after another unreactive hoof-test he went into horsepital for a full lameness workup including...

    Any nurses out there?

    It's tough!! I'm a paramedic rather than a nurse. I've done 6 years on relief (ie filling in for those on annual leave or off sick, which meant finding out on a Friday what I was doing the following week) and, frankly, was near breaking point. Not being able to plan anything like outings or...

    Clipper recommendations please

    In searches I can only find threads a few years old, sorry if I've missed a more recent similar thread. I can source Liveryman and Lister's at cost, so particularly interested in people's views of these manufacturers. Requirements: personal use (as opposed to yard! - BiCs do me just fine...

    How to stop horse from chasing dogs?

    My lad is fine with cats and dogs around the yard/stable block, even nuzzles them affectionately.... but woe betide one that wanders into the school or field whilst he's at liberty. I've witnessed first-hand his most out-of-character aggressive streak and it's not nice. In fact he thundered...

    Burghley has got expensive

    Blimey! Just paid £35 for a weekend ticket to the Europeans at Blair. Will be my first and possibly only visit to a major championships and I can't wait!

    Jackets for the awkward sizing..

    What is this 'lanky' of which you speak? :-D I need a new jacket (middle-age spread seems to have set in!) but am a short-arse and generally find the arms too long. Should we buy the same jacket and you can have the material I lop off the arms?!?!

    Living near a wind turbine

    3 large private turbines have gone up probably no more than half a mile as-the-crow-flies from the yard. Never aware of hearing them to be honest. I've hacked the road nearby and pony initially looked suspiciously at the shadow from the blade moving along the surface towards us but soon didn't...
