livery yard pettiness this one will amaze you

Another thread that reminds me how lucky I am to rent land on my own albeit with no facilities whatsoever.
:(

This ^!


I'd buy another lock and leave a message -

'Touch this lock and it won't be the only thing getting smashed...'...

:D


Glad you've found somewhere, now just promise that if THAT YO decides to give up, you won't go back there again like you did last time!

I get the impression you are a bit intimidated by them, so take others' advice and have no more to do with them. Block them from FB asap.

Good luck.
 
Yay for you!

Agree with the cutting of ties - do this, block on FB and just end calls and delete texts.

I had a spiteful little witch cause me grief and the best thing to do is remember this: Those that are important to you know the truth, let them say what they like - They will be bulling someone else next week. Hold your head up high and take a big cleansing breath and move on. Give your self a big apt on the back too :D
 
Had a quick read through your post's, glad to see you moved to another yard and hope things work out ok for you, seems to be a thing in the horsey world, lots of Hare Soles.

Enshrine of Tools.
 
Good on you for getting out of there. That is just awful what they did, let as many people as you can know what they did to you, as it's just not on at all. And delete them off facebook and make sure they have no ways of contacting you/finding out where you've gone. Glad you've managed to leave, hopefully you can enjoy your horses again now somewhere that isn't full of total and utter nutjobs!
 
Just read this, what a right old mess! Glad you are away :)

First thing, I'm so glad I have my own land!
Second, I'm glad I'm scary as ****e so if I were forced to go livery, people would leave me the hell alone.
 
If you have good friends on the yard ask them to leave the yard with you and leave a dent in the yard managers/owners pocket.That will work and in the climate we are in itll hurt their pockets and if a majority leave it will close down a shed hole of a place.Major governments shut down because of this type of counter aggression.MAJORITY RULES!!!!!!!!!!!
 
i bought a new pink wheelbarrow last week id saved up and it cost me £45 as was fed up of small metal one i had.jokingly said i was going to lock it up if people on diy yard used it.well some of them decided to put it on the stable roof one night-fine i can take a joke-thought it was funny.then they filled it with water and put it on a lower roof and yes you guessed it i got bloomin soaked but found the whole thing amusing.so i thought right ill padlock it up for a joke.the daughters livery manager who is a livery has cut through the lock and put the following on fb

"I did it wednesday u go n buy another lock i'll just smash the barrow up next time, ********ng pathetic lockin ur barrow up thought u woz an adult not a child"

its my barrow and surely ill decide wot to do with it.im just gobstacked.

what would you do?

Don't say a word!! Look for another yard then move, then give her both barrells under that comment saying what u said here! Don't you dare line her pockets with your money, bloody moron that she is!!

Poor you XX
 
can i just say i feel for you as you have been through crap, but im a single parent on benefits. I look after my autistic son and my horse is my release from his care and my daughter uses Meg to get one time with me. So please dont write off single parents cos we all aint scroungers!!
 
post 107 i can imagine you r not a scrounger.these people r though and so are the half breds they have bred.sorry but you need to know these people.one has deliberatly got pregnant again so can stay on benefits and avoid going onto jsa next month and they also work cash in hand jobs by doing diy liveries when they on holiday etc.one makes about 600 per month cash in hand.i know its not their childrens fault they r the way they r -its the parents.im sorry your son is autistic.you need to be at home to look after your son and give him the care he needs-you are not a scrounger!however i do believe that there is really no excuse for some peeps being on benefits and everyone who is should be doing some voluntary work of some sort to earn their benefits whilst they are looking for work from day one.some peeps say there is no such thing as a free lunch but for some there really is.
 
Move yards!

speak to yard owner/manager tell them about the behaviour and the abusive comments posted on FB.

Seriously I hate FB - never known so many cases of bullying since its inception!

I so agree with everything said above Facebook might be great for somethings but you here all sorts of stories of people who slagg others off and worse.
 
Have I missed something, or do I understand correctly that you nicked a pony in lieu of their debt to you? I completely agree that you needed to get off their and that their attitude was awful - I would be reporting them for benefit fraud without hesitation - but I'm not sure taking the pony was the best idea... Perhaps I've misunderstood?

I understood it like this, too. However, I'm guessing that the OP had paid for this pony to a third party, with the YO promising to 'pay her back'. Until they've given her the money, it's the OP's property and she has every right to move him. Glad you're out of there, OP. Sounds a right hell hole!

the pony was mine im not a criminal lol.the pony wasnt paid for so still mine hence i took it with my other one.

ALL SORTED NOW AND ITS OVA AS FAR AS IM CONCERNED.THANKS TO EVERYONE ON HERE FOR THEIR HELP AND SUPPORT.
 
I'd be shifting, pronto! Putting it on the roof, fair do's if you know each other VERY well and are both intent on having a joke I probably wouldn't kick off and to be fair with a good mate of mine have pulled similar tricks on each other (ours was a "dispute" over who had dibs on the ladder when we were painting the stables which ended with said ladder being put on the roof but was all in in good humour) but to fill that wheelbarrow with water, especially in weather like this, is not on. Not only is there the danger aspect from the increased weight but also to get soaking with temperatures as they are it makes for a miserable day at the yard. Breaking your lock is technically criminal damage - it is your property and she shouldn't be anywhere near it. To publicly say that she will smash the wheelbarrow next time - personally, I'd be looking for a new yard and deducting the cost of a new padlock from the final livery bill!!
