    stables

    Hia, I'm in the same area as you're looking to move to - I know of a few livery yards, but a lot are quite full at the moment. Are you looking for your own space/small yard, or would a livery yard be good? I can give you some yard names if needs be. Tor x

    On the Kan stand at Burghley ...

    Great to hear :) if you attend any other shows around the UK (Badminton, Your Horse Live, plus smaller BE events eg. Stafford and Oasby) then she'll be there, Kans-a-ready!

    On the Kan stand at Burghley ...

    I'm so pleased you've both been impressed by the Kan. I've been a wearer for some months now, and I can tell you it's worth it's weight in gold. I've never worn a bp so comfortable, been able to get into one on my own or even tack up my 17.2 dinosaur in one, but in the Kan I can do all of the...

    SJ Trainer Leicestershire

    I would also recommend John Steels at Vale View, very very good training for show jumping. I'm also based in Loughborough and I go to him weekly at the moment, I've found him extremely helpful on the flat and over fences... Good luck!

    Land Rover Discovery for towing, yay or nay?

    We've been using a Disco for towing an ifor williams trailer for many years now and have never had problems, even in muddy conditions at competitions. We use it to tow my 14hh pony and my 17hh eventer, with no problems at all. I would definitely recommend!

    Personalised saddlecloth embroidery...?

    I'm trying to find someone, online or offline, who does saddlecloth embroidery. I don't mean your name, I need my sponsors embroidered ready for the new season... I've asked around, and most people seem to just do names and lettering. Any ideas??

    come out come out where ever you are !!!

    I think you're among the majority looking for a horse to compete... Baring in mind a lot of people want to ride, and it's a much smaller percentage who buys a horse and doesn't want to compete it... Keep looking though, if you find one, good on you!!

    Passport Help

    Does anyone know where I should send my horse's passport off to in order to get owner's name changed? He's a Hanoverian, bred in Germany (so I don't understand a lot of what is written on his passport!) - his previous owners didn't update it to say they owned him, so currently his passport...

    Plaiting help

    With my first event creeping up oh so quickly, my horse's mane is looking rather shoddy - due to the weather this winter he's hardly been out of a neck cover, but has subsequently rubbed half of his mane off! Anyone got any tips to make him look neat and tidy still? His lower half of mane is...

    Ditch help!!

    I have a 4 year old gelding who was bred in Germany, moved to France then here to be sold - I have my first event in a couple of weeks and realised that we're having some ditch trouble. My instructor told me it could be because some parts of Germany and Holland use ditches as field boundaries...
