I am now a charity case...

[Tiarella]

So does anyone have any 5ft9 rugs they would like to donate to me?!

(I am willing to pay

which means I am not really a charity case, but hey ho

)

Any other donations would be lovely aswell

hahaha

Im on a tight budget! I cant afford to go out and buy all these expensive rugs

Sorry I don't have any rugs suitable.
However are you on a large yard or near one? If so could you place a sign up asking people on there to contact you if theyhave any rugs to sell?
Another option is to advertise that you want some at local tack shops etc?
Also if you have and "equine laundry" near to you, could you ask there? Because we do and a lot of people clean rugs they are going to sell or don't come back for their rugs meaning that talking to the owner might get you to find some rugs that way?

[Tiarella]

Schpug I can donate a large Chelsea bun. Have decided I don't really NEED to eat it myself, but it looks very nice and has a large 'EAT ME I AM YUMMY' label.
Will that keep you from starvation for a few hours?

Ebay, get all my rugs from there, new or second hand. Surely you'll only need LW and MW TO for doug, and maybe a fleece and MW Stable? I'm not selling my 5ft9 rugs just yet

I got a £15 stable rug from decathlon (6ft is said but fits B) which is really good, so may be worth a look there.

Toto is a total wimp and he's having a hunter clip like he does every year, in the coldest part of winter he has a fleece with a heavyweight t/o with a neck cover over it, and a middleweight duvet type rug with a neck cover, with a middleweight stable rug over it

If it's colddd he has a fleece under that all

Remember that he also might need an exercise sheet

Have a look on these websites

Equestrian clearance

Blue pony

Surrey equestrian

Horse loverz

And have a look at car boot sales and on ebay

You could also put 'wanted' adverts in tack shops
