I have been looking at horses on the H&H site as its fun to search for a horse when you dont need to and cant make my mind up between two a 5 year old for £17500 or a 6 Year old for £16500 both dressage horses.
 
I think there will always be people who have the money tbh. The credit crunch is effecting loads of people but not everyone.

Also there will always be a market for quality animals and as an aside just because a price is given doesn't mean it will be achieved.
 
Like Lou, I have so far missed the credit crunch/recession; but that will soon change I'm sure.

As someone else said, people will always have money. People trade down when they are broke, so taking my husband's business for example (making bespoke kitchens): his customers are probably now going to Magnet; Magnet customers to B and Q; B and Q customers are probably making do and mending. My husband's company is getting business which might have otherwise gone to a company such as Mayflower. The people who buy my husband's kitchens are usually pretty wealthy, though, so this is a fairly loose example.

That sort of horse has its market and there'll be someone out there to snap it up.
 
Bleurgh, custard creams are yuk. I prefer Bourbons.

My grandad used to work for Elkse's biscuits in Uttoxeter and he's bring back boxes of broken ones, so I am quite expert in what's lush and what's rank!
