For the pony who has Everything!!

[Carlosmum]

My mother has suggested she takes me shopping to her local tack shop to buy me &/or pony our birthday/Christmas pressie. but what do we want? We have every thing we need, so please HHO'rs give me your suggestions of what we might find find in a decent tackshop that we didn't know we needed, budget would be around £50-70

PS I am over 50! and pony is a 14.2 native..

I don't need anything for mine - my Mum has offered to pay for lessons instead, which I am over the moon about and will be so useful.

More jods/breeches for when the current ones fall apart?

Don’t have pony sadly, but my lovely stepson is paying for me to have an hour on an equine simulator. He doesn’t ride, thought I wanted a ‘stimulator’ and gave me a very odd look ....

My sister bought me another wheelbarrow a couple of Xmas ago and it's brilliant - no more lining the mucking out one with old feed sacks when I want to take hay up to the field or bales of shavings into the stable.

Yep I always ask for lessons if people say they want to get something horsey.

What about a nice saddlepad or some lotions and potions? Fly spray/good shampoo/ leather balsam etc all add up and will keep well until you need them

a leather headcollar, new girth, sheepskin seat saver, blingy browband, a nice bodywarmer

A good pair of winter gloves.

Water-resistant breeches. You can never have too many pairs.

I like the idea of a lesson or clinic, too.

Or, I'd turn it into a Mother-Daughter day out & travel to a big tack store (if it had a cafè so much the better ) and peruse the aisles. I'm a sucker for a saddlepad & riding socks personally!

Marks and Spencer's rainbow carrots.

Magnetic pad. Can't remember how much they are though...

Liking the mother and daughter shopping trip

 

[blitznbobs]

Haas brushes?

 

[catkin]

how about an upgrade of things? Leather headcollar, swish grooming brushes, fab gloves, good reins etc etc
And use them everyday, don't 'keep for best', it's always a pleasure to use nice tools.
