As some of you know my twin sis Mags got herself a lovely little cob called Apple recently. She has a great support network at the yard she is on as she went there for lessons and knows everyone, plus she lives out in the country
My situation is a bit different . I go to a riding school twice a week which is on the outskirts of Leeds. Whilst I would love my own horse I really don't know the best way to 'make it happen' . I would have to find a livery but would need some support in the early days/weeks/months. I can't expect total strangers to help me and although I am not a shy person but I would find it difficult. I have threatened my oh that I am going to move up and live with Mags and things would be perfect! ( only joking) When I go up to see Mags I do some stable management with the other horses . I even brought one in from the muddy field and felt proud that I didn't do a face plant in the mud, although turning him back out was a different story....ended up with a mud covered leg when I tried to turn too fast! as the hay trailer was too close and the greedy cob was very eager to get some hay...Anyway I digress ...Anyone give me some pointers to make my dream a reality.....
