Clipcloppop, who did you end up going with?

It will be standing on crushed hardcore and hopefully not going to be moved. The chap who has quoted said that he normally builds on wooden skids and they are guaranteed to last years. The difference in money is about £400, just wondering if it is a saving worth saving, I know its only £400...

We are just about to order some mobile stables and have been quoted for wooden skids with a metal covering to each edge. For those who have wooden skids. do they last?

I use V kalm on my Tb, it works in about 20 mins and seems to last for about 1 hr that's working on a 10 ml dose. He is a tense devil and our flatwork lessons are either brilliant or awful depending on his tenseness. I slipped some of the V Kalm in a handful of chaff just before his lesson and...

Oh thank you for that.

I am currently looking for some mobile woooden stables, all the companies seem to be miles away. Does anyone know of any good reputable supplier of stables around the East/West Midlands. Thanks in advance

A total inspiration(sp), when ever I'm having moments of self doubt, I shall think of what Rosie has been through and thankfully come through the other side and jolly well give my self a kick up the backside.! Truely wonderful.

I need to get my boys teeth checked, someone suggested I try the lady above, just wondering if anyone uses her and feedback generally. Thanks in advance.

I recently about 8 weeks ago put in a claim for vets fees, I kept getting reminders from the vet that the account hadn't been settled. I rang NFU,, about 10 days ago and explained the situation and I was told that "they were busy" but had received my claim and hopeful that it would be looked at...

We have just purchased 4 acres next to the house and are in the design process of stables etc, now as money is fast flowing through my fingers I can't at the minute afford to connect to the main electricity supply, albeit all the cables will be there for when I do. I will want a generator to...

Peacelily- thank you very much for your detailed reply and yes it made sense. I suppose because I don't like cantering with him I find myself tensing so that isn't helping me "ride" the canter. I do need to be reminded to keep my shoulders back and sit up. I guess the more canter work I do...

Apologies in advance if I ramble on. My horse has a huge canter stride and I guess I have been concentrating more on my trot work than canter and basically been told by my instructer to get on and improve the canter. Because he has a huge canter stride I find it hard to collect him albeit I...

Oh thanks tracey01 I have just been pulling my hair out trying to find the hand written reports for the times the vet have been called out. I'm sure my vets will do the same thing then when they send the claim form back to me. Thanks Guilford also.

I have just received ,my final vets bill and have just started to fill in the claim foem from NFU, this is the first one I have had to do. Anyway most is straightforward, but I am asked to provide a full clinicalreport/History since ownership. Do I need to detail down every time the vet has...

I am watching this too, I would appreciate any feedback on this aid or something similar rather than side reins. I am wanting to encourage a rather tense young horse stretch down on the lunge. Amaretto - sorry for hijacking your post.
