He looks like a Ziggy or an Alvin to me. Not light related unless you go ziggy Stardust or Zig Zag lightening. He’s lovely.

I think going to Portugal is probably a bit ambitious for me! I hope my home backed just turned 4 year old is not suffering too much from my lack of skills😳

I have a box which is full and tidy in my barn with loads of compartments etc, however I keep the most of the stuff I use daily (basils another full kit) wherever I put it down last- one of 3 stables, mounting block, floor outside 😟

Can you give us any tips that might improve our ploughing please?

You said he was grumpy coming in? Is he used to being bought in alone while other are out? Could just be a combination of picking up nervous vibes (not saying you were but IF Zhou were pony would know and doesn’t know you) and spring grass….

My 22 this year 17hh warmblood has had a 2/6 murmur over his right meteral (excuse spelling) valve since he was 6. Semi retired for other reasons and currently giving my super playful 3 year old a run for his money. Listen to the vet x

Amazon pony lol. It definitely hurts much more now than it used too! I’m sure you’ll be fine with the mare over time and then you can really enjoy producing your hombred! I’ve had a few unexpected departures which were basically my fault but dented my confidence so it happens to us all…..easy...

I’ve always been advised I have a hot bum and have never had trouble sending anything sluggish forwards, even as a kid the donkeys would be pushed at me to get jumping. But I prefer a Whoo to a kick in anyway x

Oh bless you. He looks a lovely type and well suited to you from images but I can see why your confidence was shook, you’d hope seller would have been able to advise so maybe it was a spring grass moment or similar. Anyway onward and upwards. I was looking this time last year, it’s super...

It’s such a minefield as everyone has opinions of what you should and shouldn’t be doing (one of the reasons I don’t enjoy livery anymore so lucky enough to have at home) and while I don’t care for pleasing people I am interested in what you’re all doing. I do notice the most opinionated (not on...

Very much like what you’re doing and nice to see lots of people on same page. I’m going to let my boy mature again over winter once the evenings draw in but lucky as my lot always go out for 8 - 14 hours depending on time of year. I’d like to ge to a ridden show and up my hacking. I’ve not...

Best luck and enjoy yourself. Horrid when a youngster has an injury. Mine impaled himself 6 months back and it was very scary x

Just a photo of my very nearly 4 year old doing breaking and steering control practice at home. I’m so in love with him.

This sounds like a good plan. Thank you

Thank you. We did an in hand show (walked there) last year. Hoping to ride this year. Not in a hurry either but happy to be on board this year properly. What horse do you have ? Thanks
