Please tell me your broken leg stories - or preferably happy endings!! After a year of broken leg, I'm really looking for inspiration that I will get better, ride again and hopefully compete again - fingers crossed!

This Sunday will mark the year anniversary of my broken leg... When I say broken leg, I actually mean snapped in half! Compound fracture of tib and fib, had to have muscle flap (muscle taken from my back and grafted into my leg) plus skin graft, 8 1/2 months in a taylor special frame...

So I have a little (16h) ISH, big shoulders and quite short backed. I like a nice forward cut saddle with plenty of knee for support, however horse's shoulder doesn't allow. I'm reasonably tall (5'8) so ideally need a 17.5" saddle but can get away with 17. So, for example, I tried him...

Hi, so I've been around a while and posted a bit, but actually never introduced myself or my horses so thought it was about time. US: Me and my OH both ride/have horses, both work and play at ponies. Although we have our own small little yard with a couple of friends on livery with us...

Sorry for the "woe is me" thread, but just feel the need to moan... Had a rough couple of years, sold a really nice horse that I really loved but just couldn't get on competing with, bought another on a bit of whim and to be honest didn't enjoy riding her... then in April this year bought my...

Anyone going next week? I am and just thought it'd be nice to say a pre "hi". Only had my new new four weeks so could be fun :-)

So here's the story: 2 years ago I sold my 15 year old SJ mare as she wasn't enjoying it anymore - with a view to buying something younger to carry on where she'd left off. I have no great ambition, just want to jump happily round 90/1m BS - not even bothered about winning - just want to...

So, one of my liveries has just bought herself a new horse, unseen. Lovely little TB mare but sadly she can't ride it. Shame really, as it is a lovely mare, with a great attitude and good ability but just not suitable for an unbalanced novice! Does anyone know any sites where you can...

Anyone going??

Just testing the water... not sure if I'm looking for the impossible. I'm after someone who has some spare time on their hands who is happy to spend some time with 2 of my horses, one is my old boy who is now fully retired (aged 32) so just deserves some extra love and attention and the other...

So... my husband and I have 5 horses - both work full time. His 2 - fit SJ horse which he rides/competes regularly and fit/active 21 yo which he has a sharer for. So lets forget them for now as all happy and working well. My 3 - fit SJ horse which i ride/compete regularly, 22 yo who...

So my husband and I have a spare stable... Private yard, 8 stables. 5 horses of our own and 2 liveries. Debating on whether to offer the empty one for livery but I'm so scared of getting the wrong horse/owner... Because we have such a small herd and they are all together they all go...

So last Wednesday I brought all the horses in from our field... no Princess GeeGee (real name Shearwater Super G) :eek: She was half way down the field, absolutely hopping lame. Managed to get her in and examined her, her tendon was as thick as... :mad: Anyway to cut a long story short...

As title suggests really. ;) I'm looking for a responsible, professional and trustworthy person that I can pay to come and house sit for us while we are away. Would be responsible for 6/7 horses and two dogs. :o

So I bought a saddle cloth for a christmas pressie for my OH. Brand new from an eBay shop. Vertigo, so not particularly cheap. GP Full size and it's too small to go under his exselle 17" GP saddle... Seller is saying I can only have a refund if it's still brand new, unused and in...

Can anyone recommend a livery yard with decent turnout near Warwick University please?

As the title suggests. My mare has an extra tooth on the left at the top. It's never really caused much of a problem, I have to have the dentist vist every 4 to 5 months to keep on top of it and he uses the power tools to get it burred as low as possible which has previously been fine. She's...

As the title says... seriously fed up!! I'm booked in for a 3 day training camp, starting next Thursday. I went last year and had a super super time as soon as they issued the dates this year I got myself booked in and have been looking forward to it for ages! There's a big group of us...

I really need some help keeping my 4 competition horses fit, kind of on a part loan basis but someone who is happy to jump on any of them. My problem is I'm having a nightmare with time wasters....:mad: I know I'm obviously biased becuase I think my horses are amazing :D but to be honest I...

As the title says... is swapping a horse a possibility? To cut a long story short... I have a yearling, who I was hoping was going to be my next jumping horse but sadly my mare has had to stop jumping sooner than I suspected. She's still fit and active but had enough of show jumping. So...

I'm looking for a saddle for my new boy... I ride one of my others in an Albion K2 GP and absolutely love it so in an ideal world would be looking for another one of those for him, but in all honestly can't afford one. :( So can anyone recommend a cheaper option? Budget of about £200...

Help please... I just don't know what to do. Here's the story... we had 3 horses, a 28 year old retired boy, and two competition horses who are now 18 and 19 years old. So we decided we ought to think about getting a younger horse to bring on. We wanted something that with a little work...
