Dilemma. Tell me 'No!'.

[Sparkles]

I do NOT need another horse.

That would make it 3 [well, 4 if including my mare who's out on loan].

I can't have 3 where I am, as I already have 2. Neither of which I'll ever sell.

I have however, fallen in love with a project I've just stumbled cross in an advert, very local to me. Very nice horse. Unbacked, hence the price he's at, but that's not a problem. I don't normally tend to look twice at many adverts as I deal with enough horses on a day to day basis and the main point is selling them at work haha.....But I don't know, I really like *something* in this fella I've seen which is unusual for me.

I'm thinking of all options now. I was tired....now I'm up with a cup of tea weighing out plans.

Oh sounds dangerous on your bank balance!

 

[Sparkles]

Bank balance isn't too much of an issue...said horse would go in place of one of the stabled ones *if* anything did happen.

I'm still planning.....

 

[Devonshire dumpling]

Go for it!

 

[Sparkles]

Don't suppose anyone in Swindon wants a loan neddy for a while do they

 

[flying solo]

There's a reason you looked at the advert twice so I'd go have a look if it was me! (probably take the trailer too lol)

The horse box is actually more economical than the car in fuel too...

"NO"

[Sparkles]

"NO"

What was that? *blank face* lol.

 

[finnywinny]

Ah ha oh sparkling one, i find you again tonight, tis the spotted flier here!!!

Tell us about this ponio you have seen, where and what etc.

I now have spotty mare in my life because I was drawn to an advert in a way I could not resist/deny. As soon as i saw the photo I knew she was mine and I had gone to see 20 other horses and walked away....

What about your lil coloured chap?

XXX

 

[traceyann]

Hellooooo!!! I shall send you a photo....he's not done a thing and a rubbish photo, but it's really attracted me for some reason.

 

[finnywinny]

"Reason" has nothing to do with it. I didn't want a mare, I wasn't looking for a spotty, just a nice bay gelding would have suited me fine.

BUT I now have something very special....so go with your instrict, at least go and look, see if you get the same feeling in the flesh. not that I should be encouraging you.....

Let us all know what happens XXX

 

[Sparkles]

I'm viewing him this week.....

 

[Gingersmum]

Done deal

 

[Suziq77]

Hahahaha DO IT

You can look and look and look - but the ones that "find" you are the ones you're meant to have!

 

[Echo Bravo]

Tis no good asking me, I've got 5

 

[mulledwhine]

Sounds like you now have 5 !!!

Good luck with him

 

[kirstys 1]

NO - ah, go on then!

 

[Sparkles]

Haha!

This might potentially make 4..... I did used to have another pony but I sold him. Otherwise that would have made 5....

Though I am putting my mare in foal....Surely that will class as a half though right???

 

[DragonSlayer]

Hey, our herd grew again to 5 today!

...you can never have a big enough herd....

 

[Trinity Fox]

I am saying nothing I have 9 at the moment three are to sell on but I am going to pick another young one up next week he is lovely and the pics of him up to his knees in muck made me realise I had to do it.

He is not that near me so I have found another couple of babies to fill the box after all diesel is so expensive, you should not listen to me or my reasoning it is not good.

Anyway its only money and time and if you can afford it why not there are worse things you could be doing.

*Turns around all walks straight back out. I will be a bad influence*

I have 5 (3 of which need backing this year!) & am currently shopping for number 6 & considering putting my mare infoal again this year (altho quite enjoying riding her again so maybe not!)

 

[SavingGrace]

Just do it
