    Fencing (equi wire)

    Gallagher make good products and the equi fence is one of them, but at around £330 for just a roll of 250 metres, the costs will pile up quickly if you're fencing a large paddock. Electric rope is much cheaper, looks good, can be tentioned and works well.

    Acorn drop?

    Spot on. Thousands of them last year and we now have many trying to grow all over the place.

    Yet the loaner knew these weren't just idle threats, silly banter, or humorous signs, since she was aware of the GG Centre's previous history when it comes to shooting horses

    Why do you and others keep saying, "I can't believe people here think it's ok to shoot a horse for £30"? Nobody has said that.

    I don't know how many times I have to repeat this, but no one here is saying that it's ok to shoot a horse because of a debt. I don't know why people are not getting this.

    Full Livery - bring in, am I being unreasonable?

    Obviously we differ on what we expect from full livery. I expect that when I phone and tell the yard that I want my horse to be ready at 13:20 pm on Tuesday for the vet, then it better be ready at 13:20 pm on Tuesday. I do not expect to feel like I had just asked for the person on the phone to...

    Full Livery - bring in, am I being unreasonable?

    You're on full livery. Why are you bringing your horse in yourself? What am I missing here as that is the one of the points of paying for full livery? You do not ask for help.
