I did start keeping a monthly total. Stopped it very quickly...
Have you ever added up what your horse costs you in a year? :-o

I tell myself that they cost nothing because they live at home so no livery bills.
Feed bills, vet, farrier etc etc etc don't count

last year £7127 for the main stuff, im sure there are bits ive missed, but I keep a spreadsheet of all of my expenses.
that's for 2 horses, 1 mini, none in work, one was not backed, the other retired! so god knows that it will be by the end of this year, with a newly backed horse and oldie with cushings! I dread to think!

About £7500 per year, if I add in everything properly. He is a hardy native, and not even in work yet...competing is not in our future, I fear!
