    Nissan Navara as a tow vehicle?

    DON't do it!!!! Please please please check out the nissan navara snapped chassis FB page first. It affects 2005-2008 chassis but they WILL NOT pay out if you've had it for less than a certain amount of time. I towed with mine for years, LOVED it, but became aware of the issue when my...

    3.5 ton lorry with full height partiton on makers?

    T Speak to Regent. They are very experienced and will accomodate any requirements such as this. And their boxes are VERY reasonable cost wise! Good luck

    Idiots guide to lorries, payloads etc please!

    I've just had a horrid experience of buying a 3.5T horsebox - an EXPENSIVE one from a seemingly reputable trader - who promised me a payload of 1.14T (and produced a certificate to prove it). When I got it home and things started to drop off it, a crack appeared in the back (had been hidden by...

    To clip or not to clip?

    There is the original power (which I have), and the thicker extra rug ... but you can't use that in such a range of temperatures. So I use the Power for Spring and Autumn, and the Bucas Irish rug when it gets below about 8. Love being able to put the sweaty horse back in the field and not...

    To clip or not to clip?

    I used to agonise every year, it was a nightmare spring and autumn with sweaty ponies, the right weight rugs, .... UNTIL last year I bought a Bucas Power rug - BRILLIANT!!! You can apparently use from -16 to +16 and because it's a wicking rug you can put straight on a sweaty horse so it's just...

    It's the whole saddle by the looks of it, panels and all ... take a look at the video see what you think ...

    Bua saddles

    Ahhh ok, no offence taken I was genuinley wondering why that was the case ... I would love to try one of these but not sure I'd be wanting to invest without a test ride! Esp seeing the saddle come up off the horses back as it takes off for the jump

    Bua saddles

    I've just watched the video again ... the very last clip of a horse jumping - the saddle lifts quite noticeably off the horse's back - it's put me off them a bit tbh - am I just being oversensitive? Surely this isn't acceptable?

    Bua saddles

    Sorry I might be being a bit thick �� but please can you explain why females can't sit deep in these in canter? Anybody have one of these or had a ride in one?

    Bua saddles

    Love the look of these but what are they like?? Has anybody got one?? I'm nervous about buying one without trying first, I have a horse which I'm struggling to fit saddles to as they tend to slip - I'm a bit skeptical about a one size fits all saddle - any and all experiences please! Many...

    Saddle Fitting AAARGH

    Look at one of Kay Humphries saddles - with hers you KNOW that they are very kind to the horses backs and that they fit the horse - I bought a second hand one from her and she adjusted it for free until it was perfect - my horse is very round and suffers with saddles slipping! And with hers...

    Please help these horses!!!!

    No I don't - but somebody has now shared on the RSPCA FB page so we can but hope .... I can't believe the poor horses would not have been removed immediately ... surely it shouldn't be left to a well meaning member of the public to ensure that they at least had water??
