This evening 2 ladies at the yard had a saddler coming to check the fit of their saddles. Booked weeks in advance, brief of both horses given (never been seen by this saddler before) and the arena booked for an hour.
Horse#1 - was ready tied on the indoor yard with boots on ready
Horse#2 - was in his stable on the outdoor yard
2 people came and saw a horse each. Both saddles were checked, reflocked and fitted back on the horse. At no point were the riders asked to sit onboard, or the horses to move. Horse#2 didn't leave his stable (thick bed and not a very bright light). Neither saddle was girthed up at any point.
They must have been there 20 mins in total and both ladies paid over £50.
Interested to hear what your thoughts are.........
