a) In your sand school
b) Out hacking
c) Generally mooching around the stables?

I seem to spend about 80% of my time drinking tea and having a chat!! :D
 
At the moment 100% (c) as horse is injured.. Usually still spend the majority of my time at the yard (c) with a fair bit of (b) and very little (a)

:)
 
I spend at least 4 hours a day with my horse and I only have the one!

I generally hack for at least an hour or more a day and the rest of the time I do the chores and poodle about the yard. There is always something to do.
 
1 hour ish doing "jobs"

45 mins riding

20 mins grooming...

.... erm, but am there for a good 3/4 hours :rolleyes:

... Chatting and a brew 2 hours!!! :eek:
 
a) In your sand school - as little as possible as i get bored, lunge now and then or a mooch round (i do a lot of this in the fields over summer)
b) Out hacking - 1 hour or so both Sat & Sun, more during summer
c) Generally mooching around the stables - forever :D always something to do, even whilst the horse is on the walker

My horse gets schooled by my rider so she is in the school more than i am, happy days for me lol

Per week:
a) Probably 5ish hours winter (work 7 - 5 6 days a week so now dark) but 1-2 Summer
b) Winter 2-3 hours, Summer 6+ hours
c) Way too long (probably 45 mins morning but do have 4 to do before work most days and then depends on weather evenings 1 - 2 hours per day and thats usually to do 2 or 3)
 
A) none, have no interest in schooling
B) at least 2 hours a day 6 days a week :)
C) ponies are at home and live out, so not much, about half an hour poo picking am, ten minutes feeding. The odd person comes for a cuppa. If I was a livery yard I would probably spend most of my time drinking tea and chatting!
 
No school
Hacking 2-3 hours 4-5 times/week
Doing jobs as little time as possible as I am self-employed and hve my own yard so no-one there to talk to (thank God)!
 
a) In your sand school About 2-3 hrs a week

b) Out hacking About 4 hours a week

c) Generally mooching around the stables? Not that much -I'm not a tea drinker! ;) I get my chores done about 1 hour a day on top of the riding. More time spent at yard doing other jobs and visiting at weekend - so work days one extra hour a day - weekends up to 2 hours a day.
