I'm looking for livery for a 16.1 gelding in or around Bowdon, Cheshire. I'd ideally like grass livery but DIY/part considered. Don't really need facilities but AYTO and decent hacking essential. Any recommendations?

I think if you saw a horse advertised for £4k and you went to view it having no intention of paying more than £3k you would most likely be wasting their time and yours. However if you were to call them and say, 'My absolute maximum budget is £3k, I don't want to waste your time but that is all...

it's very difficult to price a horse without actually seeing it or sitting on it. She may well be worth £6.5k to someone - maybe not to you, I don't know. What I will say though is if I was selling the price would be agreed before you took the horse on trial (I personally would not allow this...

Has anyone had much success with adverts placed on just the online section? Missed this weeks mag booking (and it's expensive!) - wondering if online only advert worth it? Do any of you browse for horses on the online bit or just the mag?

Is this the one on Clip Clop?

And how would you know if i've never seen it?! No one is dictating what they can and cannot do just whether it's necessary for our Royals to be seen as endorsing it. So just because a horse has a sheen on its coat and only is subjected to a few minutes of abuse now and again it's ok?

This is not a 'get at Kate' post for Goodness sake! Far from it. Each to their own I suppose...

Er...no but the other part of the family are. Not having a go at Kate just don't think it's necessary to be endorsing this 'sport'.

They will be visiting the Rodeo in Calgary. Quite appalled at this really given the cruelty involved. What do you think? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1392451/Prince-William-Kate-Middleton-visit-largest-rodeo-U-S-tour.html

How they get the money to you should be their concern not yours. Just tell them the horse doesn't leave the yard either in your transport or theirs until the money is either in your hand or in your bank account. And give them a timescale to complete the transaction!
