Yet another collaboration with a supplier. I would really rather they spent more time looking at welfare issues than checking whether we do a full muck out every day or once a week. Thoughts..... ??

It’s a bit odd, but they were at associated champs giving out free samples, which is jolly handy so I won’t complain.
What I don’t appreciate is the sales emails purportedly from BD but actually just random stuff

Yes I just feel I get spammed with all the latest marketing stuff. I'm not sure that's what I 'signed up to' to be honest when I joined them many years ago. It just seems so 'corporate' these days. Not really sure how to express it properly, but I want to be part of a group of people with common interests, with the welfare of horses at its heart. Not some advertising jamboree.

I’m not really sure how the two are related?

The sport needs funding through sponsors; I’ve never heard of this company before (not sure if they have a bad rep I’m unaware of) but to me it’s a fairly inoffensive ad.

They could show a more proactive public face in response to welfare issues, I get that we see more ads from them than this. But realistically we just have to accept that they have to have to make money in order for them to exist to do that.

Purely in my opinion, the post seems so amateurish, and clicking through eight, I think, different screens, isn't exactly slick marketing. I think most people would be lost at the first one or two. But, as I say, just my opinion.

These Myths are new to me

I also hmm at 'proven safety' for animals and users of virkon, I wouldn't be using it if I didn't have to, hopefully everyone is still going to read the SDS sheet before using it, It's just making it sound rather innocuous. Skin/lungs/eyes . . .


It will also eat your rubber matting . . . .

Myth Busters - they just piss me off - hey I'm a moron with no capacity to grow and learn, please 'experts' bust those myths for me - but I am cranky generally
