Loosing the will to live a little..
Quite fancied attending a local show 4 miles away from our yard, I thought it wouldn't cost too much compared to attending events over 30 mins away (where most are!) so asked for a quote from a resident transport company who is also based at said livery yard.
4 miles to the venue an hour to wait for me to do my test then to drop us back to the yard where she is also situated so this would be the end of the journey for her too.
£60 for an 8 mile round trip then an extra fee to wait for an hour...
Would cost me nearly £90 to do one dressage test! the lady is lovely and she has a nice fairly modern 3.5 tonne box.. is this expensive or is it just me? Me and the boy wont be going out very much if it's costing us this much just to go to a venue 10 mins away from the yard..
Not possible to hack as the only route is on main roads!
