I have been laid up with a bug for the past few days but have some how managed to order five new sets of matchy for a horse who is at the other end of the country at present - I need help or someone to take my credit card

We need to see what you bought :biggrin3:
 
they are all arriving hopefully over the next few days - we have the eskadron star pad with navy bandages and pink stars (although I may have just ordered the overreaches as well ), a Eurostar petrol and black set - nice second hand bargain, 2 sets from loesdau - one sand and jeans and one red and navy and my official lust of the last few weeks - eskadron blackberry set :) I just need my horse back now :)
 
I have been so good for the last few months as have had to pay for his rehab fees and got a little surprise from my dad and all hell has let loose - the boy will have to become a dressage diva now :)
 
I am currently lusting over this ...

I only part loan as well. Trying not to tell myself that I can put it away for when *if* i ever get my own....
 
ohhh see I contemplated this one but he is a bright ginger and thought it would either look lovely or hideous and I cant be trusted with something that pale :) I think you should buy itthough :) x
 
I suppose that it WOULD be good practise to learn how to bandage..... and poor loan horsey DOES get bothered by flies in summer.... and it would be silly to not get the full set if I'm investing in two out of three...



*credit card whimpers*
 
I'm glad I'm not the only rehab with a matchy addiction ;) I had a genuine dilemma about Bs outfits for RRR ;)

Just don't tell Nic!
 
very very silly - bandaging is a good skill to learn and it would practically be a welfare issue with the flies *casually forgets to mention its going into winter * :)
 
she would shake her head in dismay :) I think its the thought of him beig rideable again has sent me over the edge :) Im so excited about maybe going to the rrr next year :)
 
But Summer is less than a year away! Time to start stocking up on my deet and her flyspray and her new super fun fly bonnet!

Which season is this? I waaaant it!!!!
 
Can't have it! Its all mine!!! :-p

I think its a limited edition (ice?)
It came through an email from speedgate yesterday. Not sure of season. Sorry!
 
I saw some grey Eskadron yesterday that I am lusting over.... I don't bandage though so need to find matching tendon boots :)

If it helps, Karran, one of mine wears a fly veil all year round as he doesn't like the wind in his ears.... ;)
 
They also have it on dressage deluxe as well as speedgate. ice (the green colour) & ocean (an almost navy but really nice blue) are part of the eskadron classic sports winter 2013/14 range :)
 
Just had a browse through the website, please tell me that there is a typo and there aren't really saddle pads for €230!!!! I love a bit of matchy but that's a bit much!!
 
I've got a really bad chest infection/was pneumonia so haven't ridden for weeks. So I'm making up for it by looking at tarting up my horse with either the blackberry Eskadron set including magic ears (she spooks in the wind and Tarrsteps kindly recommended fly veil to block the wind = magic spooking cure) or the ocean blue set. If I've got to buy new magic ears then she definitely will need a matching saddlecloth and bandages. I can't find any to match my existing saddle pads and bandages so I'm forced into buying new sets.

Sooo easy to justify new tat.
