I have 2 of the combo turnouts for my 11h Welsh a. I find them quite generous, the 4'9 neck is far too long and covers him down to his nose when his heads down. The 4'6 is better proportioned. They have stood up to a lot of wear, my only gripe really is that they don't come in a heavyweight...
CCTV everywhere, access is restricted at one end of the yard with electric gates only operable from inside the house, other access is across the front of the house. My horses are hidden from the road as are around the back of the house. Tack is in an internal tack room. Big dog and a crazy...
Mine came in on Saturday night, they've been coming in through the day all summer so it's no extra work for me really. I've fenced the field so a third can rest until Christmas, and will divide the remainder up so I can rotate as necessary.

Red-1, what is the name of the app that you mention? That would be perfect for me when I'm at the yard on my own!
If anyone is near me, I'm in a small village just outside Tadcaster and would love someone to come and ride out with me! Moved from a huge livery yard to a private yard and...
After reading some of these horror stories I've realised I've been pretty lucky!
For years I kept my pony, and after that, my horse, at home. We sold the land when we were offered a ridiculous amount of money for it- several times what it was worth. There's still horses living on it, as it...
I love my job, I'm based at home marketing, advising customers and updating an equine website. So although I'm not 'hands on' it's still a horsey job! Means I can enjoy my horses and my job, love it!
