... And could spend it on anything, what would you do with it?

For me, I'd buy some sort of mini pony - a small shetland, exmoor or highland mare and stud fees to have her bred :P Then I'd show her and her foal! I'd buy a really nice new set of tack for Oscar, the whole Oster grooming set, a leather headcollar for all of ours, some Equisorb bedding... Ah, the list is endless xD

Sorry, I'm bored

i would probably chuck it in the bank!boring i know!
would love to buy a really nice 3yo(would like to spend 6k plus) to get started while i wait for bey to grow!but not got time for another one!
 
Ooo my list would be endless it couldnt go far enough for me:
New Car
New clothes
New washing machine (mine died last week)
New saddle for pony
A present for friend/YO as she lets me pay minimal livery!

Formost id quit this boring godforsaken job and have a few months off before i looked for something else!

Glad im not the only bored person out there this afternoon!!
 
To be honest I don't need any horsey stuff...infact I've got too much anyway...I could kit out a herd. I'd use it to have a nice break away from horses.....I love the lad but sometimes you just need a break to recharge your batteries

If I was being sensible,pay off a chunk of the mortgage, or get new equipment for the farm or some more alpacas. 5K would get three or four more, or some new shelters, or more fencing, or.......the list gets longer.

If I was being frivolous, I saw a lovely Paso in-foal mare with one at foot the other day....palomino too

Sorry but I would have a holiday, the horses get enough as it is. I would also treat my parents and OH to a really nice meal and night in a posh hotel for helping me out this winter........ If there is change from that then I may consider buying my gang something, but what I haven't a clue.....
 
I'd buy a lovely new jumping saddle and a new bridle and the rest I would use on lessons with someone really good like Tim Stockdale. I'd have to keep it secret though cos my OH would want me to pay off some debt!!!
 
I am not in a position to buy a horse at the moment so I would pay of my credit cards give some to the parents, buy a pair of long leather boots and a Champion Ventair (was supposed to get it for christmas, will probably be birthday now!) and new hacking and show jackets.
 
Hmm would be tempted by another horse....
Realistically a new kitchen would be nice though.
If it had to be horsey, I'd buy both mine an elevator bridle, some rambo or fal rugs, buy myself an expensive new hacking jacket and some made to measure leather long boots and save the rest. Maybe pay someone to school Fudge to show ring standard.
