As the title suggests really. Are there any good sites to look at on the net to find a place on my own (in and around Nottinghamshire)? Or do you have any hints and tips form you experience of finding the perfect place. By place I mean anything from a paddock and field shelter to a small yard. I would consider buying or renting, I rent a house with my partner at the moment and would consider moving if we could find a property to rent with the facility I need (room for 3).
Dont get me wrong I like the livery I am at, at the moment but would love somewhere that I could be my own boss. My girls want for nothing but to fund said fortune I need to work. I find myself apologising for being on the yard an hour earlier/ later than normal or being anti social as I cant always do the social rides, bbq, Christmas ride ext. I dont mind hard work and muck in all I can, but if you will have shavings delivered at 2pm how Im I ever not going to be at work! Also if the girls were in the field together I wouldnt get to the yard at the normal time to find they have been left out on their own to tear about as everyone else brought in early. (They are in separate fields at the moment as one is big one is small and one is a boy, they would run fine together Im sure).
Your views on going it alone are also welcomed. I say alone, but my mum will muck in. My non horsey boyfriend is also a star and doesnt mind helping as long as 10 women dont jump out of there stables at him with the line just the man, would you just have a look at this lol, bless him he is a shy sole, and I wouldnt be all alone as my ponies life partner (and owner) would come along as well. There would be teddies out of the pram all over the county if they were separated after about 15 years; they sulked when they were split over the fence into boys and girls! Bless them.
Thanks for getting this far, sorry for getting off point, any advise greatly appreciated. (Even if its to tell me to stop dreaming, such places dont exist).
Many thanks.
