Roll up! Roll up!! Get the answer you're looking for RIGHT here. NO problem too big..

I'm a bit confused to be honest. I've been following all your advice for a while now and have seen signicant improvement in both my bank balance and my quality of life away from the horses.

I have so much more time now I don't need to worry about all those annoying extras like tack cleaning - if my horse is clean then how can his tack get dirty? And also horse cleaning - if his tack is clean then how can the horse get dirty?

It seems that some users have not appreciated your well considered advice just recently. I cannnot for the life of me think why any sane person would not welcome your pertinent input into their current dilemma - equine or otherwise.

It will be a sad day if this font of knowledge is ever capped.

Does anyone know if it's possible to have a sense of humour transplant on the NHS or would it have to be done privately? Even if one has plenty of money.
 
Haven't got time to read any more but, believe it or not these sound remarkably like a lot of the posts you read from time to time on here.
I think this thread could run and run! (til it gets pulled)
pssssst There was a pic this week of HH website editor, if she's the FC she's not what I expected!!!

It is possible to ride without a girth, after all, these are not natural. However, it would be easier to nip the nipping in the bud (see what I did there?) and you will achieve this by feeding lots of treats. If your horse is too busy stuffing his face with carrots, he won't have time nor the inclination to bite YOU. Good luck :)

You aimed it at me. You know it, I know it, a hell of a lot of other people have mentioned to me that they know it; so don't pretend. You've made some horrific comments on HHO, ones that you can't cover up and there for everyone to see; so stop lying and own up to what a vile character you have the tendency to be.

I have reported you, and the reply I got back makes it clear I'm not the only one you've purposely upset recently and have also reported you. You are clearly a grown up so have the decency to act like one.

And don't worry, I won't contact you again because hopefully you won't be on here much longer.

bloody hell papafrita-jealous much?!

we all know who your reply is actually about and its verging on bullying as well as a bit sad, so you disagree, many people do without turning it to a rather bizarre,almost stalkerish crusade.

i work my ass off (2 jobs), and im entitled to spend all my money on anky/pikeur/eskadron if i want to.the only problem you can possibly have with that is jealousy.i have never (and neither has a certain other person) said it improves the horses way of going, or in any way implies that-my horses would still do well if they were kitted out in budget kit because rather bizarrely i do put as much effort in to training as preening them!iv got enough money to do both, so shoot me.

you are a quite unpleasant person.

Bwah ha ha ha ha!!!

At first I thought these were a p/s take too. Then I realised they were serious!

WTF!!!

PF, you are a legend :D :D :D
 
Dear PF

I have an ex pit pony who I am aiming at the dressage world, we have gone from prelim to elementary in six months and are aiming to be AM by September - my question is, should I go all matchy matchy? I have heard that it does and can improve your horses way of going, what are your thoughts?

Yours

mini dressage diva

Yes, but you have erroneously wandered into the wrong discipline. You need to start one for yourself regarding the importance of bizarre piping on one's boots, the ABSOLUTE NECESSITY for a Navaho blanket (for schooling) under one's Italian made saddle (if you paid under £2500 you were, I'm afraid, totally ripped off) and to have your hair AT LEAST two feet long and worn in a pony tail during competition.

That's YOUR discipline and you really do need help with it from what I have seen on the *OAHHO (FB ;) )


*Other Alternative HHO
 
PF - I see you absolutely know what you are talking about, and across the disciplines, too (very clever) ...

... but these colours are soooo 'at least two years ago' :D :rolleyes: ;)

*sighs* Oh well, what colour should I use? The horse is white with brown and black spots - oh and one brown leg. Does it have to be an Anky pad? As he is only 12.2 he looks like he is wearing a tablecloth, do they shrink if you boil wash them?
 
Sorry, can I change the subject and ask a show jumping question?

Does sheepskin and knitted fly ears make your horse jump bigger? I was watching some SJ yesterday and saw a lot on display. So just wondering.

That is seriously impressive, can I come and be your acolyte and live in your garden shed? :D

One time I wore entirely the wrong pants for a dressage test and the chafe was terrible to speak of. I placed 6th, but I'm sure I could have placed 4th if there hadn't been so much agonised wriggling on my part :o

You mean your pants weren't dressage legal?:eek:
I thought they checked just before you're called in...

Anti-VPL pants to not show under fancy German breeches - big mistake. My dear friends, always compete in the pants you train in.

NB: but wash them between wears!
 
Hi

I have a 16.1hh TB gelding ex racer who is in a mixed herd 30 in al.

my problem is that he is acting like a rig very stallion like, i have had him on rig calm for four weeks now and he is still having the urge to be with the mares. l have been giving him 2 x scoops of the stuff twice a day in each feed i am now going to give the maximum of 3 scoops hoping this will stop him mounting each mare in season.

My question is what would you advise if he does not stop mounting after he has been on 3 scoops of rig calm say after another 2 weeks, what would be your reccommendations for me to do ??

Thankyou

I really do too. I got my horse all purple stuff and told the groom I was getting a purple bridle, a which point she told me she would not ride him anymore because, and I quote: 'I ain't 12 no more'.

It is terribly important to match and cannot be overstated!! Not matching means that you are a) terribly unfulfilled and your life is lacking in some way and/or b) that you are very very jealous of those who DO colour coordinate.
I am both :( but at least I have a sense of humour. Feel the huggles!!

Bring back huggles! Bring back huggles! This is my point: all purple surely means I am fulfilled, although I have yet to source a purple saddle. :(
 
Just read all 79 pages, never laughed so hard in my life!
PF please advise the cost of getting the bananastick and halter and lead to NZ? Oh and the full set of DVDs, which will be the wrong region to play in my machine, so you better chuck in a UK DVD player I suppose.
PF where are you??!!
