I suppose being fair there’s the chance of a gap year or university loan from someone…very slim but not entirely off the charts.

I’ve got a hobby horse and some Julip models that may fit the bill and the price tag…

Oof that’s hard reading. Please tell your lad there are hundreds of people here cheering his horses well again.

There was something visceral about that picture, wasn’t there? There’s very few alive who have seen war horses injured in duty (aside from Hyde Park) and it felt like something out of the far past. Change the background and that could have been any of our army horses through the centuries...

Fairly common, it goes on enough in showing that there’s an ‘accepted’ way of doing it. And for breed societies that require ponies to be under a certain height. The nice way is teaching the pony to stand fully relaxed, head down, as relaxed as possible, can shave a bit off. Fresh but ethical...

Was just discussing that. Any civilian event causing that much risk and harm on the roads would never be allowed to go ahead again, I do wonder if there will be some changes. I feel sorry for everyone involved, it’s a horrible thing to have happened.

There’s a couple of other videos on Reddit and that grey is dog lame in one of them presumably straight after hitting the car. The damage to the bus windscreen is pretty awful in one video. The black has been caught and unsaddled at least, there was a picture of him standing by the damaged...

Hell that poor grey is really bleeding. How terrifying.

Had to chase my mum away from the catalogue because she saw the Hackney and is wondering if 65 is too old to go after her teenage dream and learn to drive…

That is strange! Surely can’t be registered, although I’ve just looked the breed standard up and it says any colour aside from piebald, skewbald and blue eyed cream (which is a whole mess of a thing in itself) but I honestly don’t think it can be pure.

That’s near to me. There’s a fair few XLs there, I got a bit jumpy the last time I walked down Falmouth High Street as I counted four of them, all off lead albeit pre ban. There was a small dog killed there shortly before Christmas by one. We all know who has them and why and the police...

Cattle being turned out here early because the farmers can’t get straw for love nor money. (Cornwall)

David Maxwell is truly living the dream, I do admire him.

That was a race worth the watching. I’ll admit I was skeptical about reducing the height and while I don’t think it’s an equal test of a horse, it was good to see no fallers and horses finishing with plenty of running. I think having an even smaller field with two non starters and then Corach...
