I had a young pony who napped when trying to leave the yard hacking but it got better as she got older and more experienced / confident

You would probally be looking at about £5000. Besides I wouldnt want to traumatise the people of London!

You could stay at the travel lodge in Morcott or maybe somewhere in Uppingham - the Falcon maybe? The george in Stamford is meant to be nice but probally booked. Not sure really though. I dont live too far away and my friend lives pretty close which is convenient. I could have a word and see...

Thats what riding schools are like now. I remember when I was younger they used to do loan a pony days and you just went up and did everything. I used to love doing all those little things when i was younger

I would say pony club too. They have great things on. I agree with people above that riding clubs are better when you get older although I did bit of both really. I think I preferred stuff at PC really though.

In season?

I would say defo done more good than bad if anything! Unless theres something more to this that you dont know... but for those reasons how is it going to have done anything bad?? At the end of the day theres nothing worse when horses get bored and fed up and start going sour! Variety is always...

When had April in work only just used to lunge really when I hadnt ridden for a few days cuz she got a bit fizzy... same with all my other ponies mostly. My Mum also lunged a bit occasionally too if I didnt ride. However, it is really good... I tended to just ride instead.

When I kept my pony in livery it was really annoying how people would borrow things and then not put them back so when you need it it isnt there. Everything was marked with my name anyway. Having moved pony back onto the farm now its a lot easier though because its only us!!

Does anyone know of somewhere to order team jackets - like Bronte ones from? Its for the university Equestrian club that I am part of at university... need somewhere decent though. We have ordered in the past and had really bad quality and been messed around. Wondered if anyone had gotten any...

That is very brave lol

I would suggest hacking. Have some fun and take the pressure off!

Well, If the service is offered then I cant see a problem with people using it. People like to do things differently.

With all other ponies I have had before April (who we have now) I wouldnt want to keep a pony on thier own. However, we first had her at a busy livery yard and she wa so stressed all the time and just really moody all the time. She spent most o the time in the back of the stable just not...

I got on my friend 18.2 from the ground!! Apparently I was the first person ever! Go Me!!! I have long legs though!!
