How much do your vet bills amount to?

In 9 years, apart from vaccs, his vet bills have come to about £200! He's had one emergency call out, which I never got a bill for. He's only had the vet out twice in all that time - once for arthritis and once for mites. I should be smug, but given his age I'm expecting him to start falling apart pretty soon...then the big vet bills will come rolling in

The only vet bills I've had in 13 years of owning horses have been:

one instance of very mild colic so one call out and one injection of Buscopan;
one instance of choke so one call out - the vet cleared the blockage with nasal tube
one instance of injury resulting from kick in field : three call outs, some bute and ABs, then she went to the equine hospital for x-rays and ultrasound but was PTS.

Total bills about £800 for treatments over 13 years (I'm not including vaccinations) in which time I've had 7 horses including the foal born this year. . . . .
