Are you in Warfield? That’s no further than my current place!

Great, have messaged them! Looks lovely

On the limit time wise but not out of the question!

Currently paying £700 pcm and would rather not go higher!

Yes all the problems I’m coming across! He only had the one lami bout last spring (the only one in 15 years) and that was entirely due to poor management of the yard, they could have easily caught it earlier but left him out. So usually he’s fine with reasonable grass, and correct management...

I found Surrey took longer to get to than Berkshire - more miles out on the m4 but you can get deeper into proper countryside quicker

Weirdly I’ve found it easier to get out west than SW, out on the a4/M4 - I looked at a yard in Surrey and took me an hour to travel the 11 miles there 😂

Just looking for hive mind brainstorming I think…so: I moved my horse (cob gelding, horse of a lifetime, had 11 years) to be nearer me (in central london) and he’s currently at a lovely yard in Berkshire. So well looked after and very happy with the place, although just been told it’s being...

Such lovely words. And very similar with my girl - Outlasted original OH, moved from Suffolk to Kent to London with me, went through the major life changes of my late 20s and 30s, was always by my side and such a calming, constant presence. I knew she wouldn't be in my future, but when it...

So sorry for your loss, but your sentiment is so right and something we must remember x

Yes I think you’re all right! I don’t think it helped that literally the morning after I had my old girl pts, my parents lurcher collapsed paralysed with a spinal injury (very weird, it’d been brewing for a while in hindsight but considering he did nothing active to trigger the disc going it...

Thank you all so much for your kind words and advice, it really does help. Having lost her at a ripe old age, it’s not like I’m losing a future, just a past - but she was definitely my soulmate and has been my constant through some turbulent times. I don’t miss having a dog that much, especially...

4 weeks ago today I said goodbye to my best friend, she was 15 and her time had come, but it was still the hardest decision of my life. We spent all day every day together, from years on the yard to her last couple of years pootling in London with me after our lives changed quite significantly...
