That does raise some questions haha!

He just seems so socially awkward, but in a sweet way. He's totally clueless but so willing to please, just a proper sweetheart really. Bless him :)

There are a couple on our yard who ride almost exclusively on the roads, they only ever use these homemade bareback pads instead of saddles, and they only trot or canter on the tarmac never walk. The other day they were away up onto the dual carriageway with their ponies. Oh, and they NEVER...

Well my friend very politely asked her to stop readjusting the tack as it was fine beforehand - which is valid I think. As some have said already "my horse, my tack". The sharer then flew off the handle a bit and without going into details the arrangement is now at an end. I was just...

Not bad. Been working so so hard on it though, took awhile :)

I'm a journalist, wouldn't say it's led to a particularly wealthy lifestyle but I manage I suppose.

Good luck! Same thing happened to me, kinda, and it's worked out great!

Not Burghley but up at Blair last month I ended up having to untangle a dog on behalf of it's owner countless times or it would have strangled itself. The guy who had the dog couldn't care less, he was just sitting on his wee chair letting the dog carry on.

We're not all like that!
