Ahhh yes the good old saddle patch - from the days when numnahs weren;t in much use. Don't see the point in a saddle patch now, just takes ages to dry off!
To me a full clip is when you have buggered up all your lines, the horse is being a pain and you have lost your rag.
A hunter is when you start to try a blanket but you keep buggering up your lines and it gets smaller and smaller.
A blanket is when you forget you were doing a high trace clip and clip too high, bugger up your lines get really annoyed and cannot be bothered to do any more.
My little 14hh pony many years ago started having a trace clip - my mother ballsed it up and then moved onto the blanket and then ballsed that up so my little pony was going to PC rallys with a full hunter clip! I speak from the voice of experience!
I can't say anything....I tried to give my daughter's pony a blanket clip last year and cocked that up. She had a hunter clip too!
I've had a fabby tip off Druid to use lipstick to mark the lines on greys. This year Patches has had a half decent blanket clip and Tweenie is awaiting her turn with the clippers!

I did feel very cool at PC when most people just had throat neck and stomachs. I also got to wear rugs on him which is a childs dream to be able to ponce around and look grown up!
