Which shavings do you use though kazs? My old mare's bed used to be an absolute mess every day - wet shavings all stirred in with clean. There was a lot of waste and I just had to do a full muck out every day as the wet was on the top. Although my new mare is a bit cleaner, I still think I need...

BD9?! What did you think I meant?

Hmmm thanks, just looking it up now. What about easibed??

Having to switch from paper bedding to shavings (muchly disgruntled !). Used to use Bedmax which I quite liked, but wondered what everyone else recommended? Ideally I want a bedding that I can just poo-pick during the week, and dig up the wet at the weekend. I find that normal shavings have...

I have just taken a job offer which means slightly longer hours, losing a few weekends a year (about 10) and less flexibility. The pay rise is enormous though and I know that with time and dedication to the company, it will eventually be the kind of place where I can work more flexibly and turn...

Cheers Zebedee that definately helps! xx

Oh my goodness that is sooo confuzzling!!

I am entered with my riding club team for the Area Horse Trials at MKEC for June, and I can't find anywhere the rules on qualifying for the Nationals in August! What will we have to do at the Area's to get our ticket to the Nationals? Can anybody help?! Cheers!! xxx

I think this is half the problem - she is a bit too in front of my leg. This is slowly improving though - two weeks ago when I got her even the slightest think about putting my leg on and shed go from walk to canter. Now I do actually ask at least. Hmph!

My new girlie doesn't really understand the half halt, she tends to go slightly on her forehand in walk and trot and just run through it. As a result, getting her off her forehand in trot isn't proving easy, downward transitions happen about 5-10 meters on from where I ask, and I can't seem to...

Thinking about using these as my first two tests for Grace. What are they like to ride as I haven't ridden them before? Cheers guys! x

Grace has a 'T' shaped scar on the inside of her off hind, directly above and running over her fetlock. I think that her brushing boots may be rubbing her scar a little bit, as it has started to look a little pink in the skin. She is turned out in Woof Wear classic brushing boots, and I think...

Nope, I just put the two numbers in and shufty them into the middle of the disk

lol ditto that - highly frightening!

Just a thought also - try to offer her something beyond the advertising too - for example can you do a blog that they can link to their website, help out with open days or marketing activities with the horses etc? Also try to get as much visibility for them as possible - try to get yourself...
