Thanks Slinky!

The lady sounds very nice, but not sure that the pony will be right for her and her daughter. Have explained everything, as I want her to go to a good home.

I'm not very good at this selling lark!!!!

ohh in a bit of a panic now as show doesnt have anyone spare to read my second test
crazy.gif
shocked.gif


also have a decision shall i do novice show hunter class or small sj class (2ft), at the mo the sj class is looking the best option, showing seems like alot of work

Hi I'm Back!!

Well, glad everyone has had a good day

Mine...not so good. My mare is definitely NOT for the people who came to see her!!! Perhaps more on that later, but, I've also booked the vet's for Monday, so we have a rather sad household tonight.
 
it been perfectly fine, had Hp with me at work today and also hacked out with her tonight, OH is just being too nice and understands that we can't be together no more. Have the house for a while til we actually sort things out.
He's told quite a few people before gossip and rumours fly.
Horrible being in shop and customers knowing we are finished.
But am holding my head up high

You keep your head up girl!!!

Thanks for the G&T Slinky, I really needed that!

I have some lemon drizzle cake if anyone would like some?

Just to let you know, the people that came to see my mare, told them everything, and I mean everything about her. They rode her, she was good, but they weren't really for her, despite stressing that she was not a novice ride!!!

Anyway, I think the nail in the proverbial was when lady said ... "ah well, we'll keep looking for a push button horse!"

WTF I had explained until I was blue in the face that she isn't pushbutton!!!
mad.gif


I couldn't help it but, my mouth opened before I thought, and I did say "you won't find one of those with all tack for 1500 quid!!"
shocked.gif
shocked.gif


I shouldn't have said that, as she may well do, but at this point I just thought, "what am I doing here??"

Anyway, that's that story, sorry to off load that all on you!!!

Hey all, how are we tonight?

Samstar - glad you managed ok today, was thinking about you xx

F_S I would have said the same - talk about time wasters!!!!

S_U only if its slimline - I'm still on the health kick - lost 4lbs this week!

f_s - no worries!!

Some people are just unbelieveable when looking at horses/ponies!! We had similar stupid things with a couple of people who came looking at one of our ponies. We spelt it out in words of one syllable that she is not a first pony but is a whizzy showjumping pony but still got people turning up whose kids were clearly terrified and and best still needed to be on a lead rein
frown.gif
......Even if they had offered us double we wouldn't have sold her to such utter numptys.....
crazy.gif
grin.gif


samstar - I guess it will be horrible for a while but there will soon be something or someone else for them all to talk about
blush.gif
. Get out and enjoy your neds when it all gets a bit sh*t. Chin up - we are here to support you!!

I'm so sorry, *pulls herself together*, how awful, we've got a long wait now until next year!!
frown.gif
