Bit of a pointless post really.. Been having a really long convorsaton with Mummy and told her about the current situation at the sales, shes not at all horsey! But she know knows that you can get a foal for next to nothing, and there are alot of nice ponies in need of homes. She has said it MIGHT be possible for me to *finally* get a pony although no promises, and nothing is definite
Anywayy.. searching for a suitable mount at the moment!! I would like save something from a voyage to europe to end up on a plate. Im not extreemely experienced, ive backed an easy pony, and helped with a few others, ride a nutter new forest and a handfull of arabs but i dont think i want to buy something almost unhandled thats going to be alot of hard work because if it all goes wrong then it could get ruined as i wouldnt be experienced enough to deal with it :/ Athoughh actually, i do know someone with alot of experience who said they will always give me a hand with anything horsey and have said that they will help me should i need help if i ever buy a youngster so an unbroken but handled pony could be a possibility, but would probably be more sensible if i didnt.
I was also thinking about a broken youngster to bring on myself.. But thinking about it these are silly ideas for a first horse!!
Also was thinking maybe a little new forest or connie or welsh or something that i can just have alot of fun with and dont need to worry about getting everything right.. but that jsut seems far to sensible, and i know i would end up being really fussy over something like this and would end up refusing to buy the perfect pony just because its grey and needed alot of keeping clean!
Ooh another thought was a pair of shetlands (im light enough to ride a fit shetland, as long as i dont over do it)!! Occasionally ride, but just mainly take for walks and jump in hand and show inhand, i think i would love that!!
Wouldnt want a tb or something that needs alot off feeding and alot of looking after as not the richest, so maybe i should wait till i can afford to spoil it rotten before buy a pony? And just not get anything yet and carry on riding all of the ones i do and building my experience, because if i was to get my own pony i would have to stop riding the others who i love to bits :/ im very lucky to have a pony i can treat as my own, but not have to see every day and dont have to pay for (although i choose to contibute what i can afford), but i would like something to call my own.
Ah decisions decisions, not expecting ANYONE to have read all this, it really is long and utterly pointless!! And i think must be my second or third post today- ive been off school ill all day
