Hi all,
Hope you are all ok on this rather miserable autumn day!
So I have decided to move back to the area I lived in for a long time, having come nearer 'home' in the spring and it not being quite right. I have found a part time job doing floristry which I love, rather than something I have to do to pay my way and I am interviewing for other part time EA roles which will hopefully use my noggin, be challenging and pay reasonably well (just as well as the floristry is peanuts!). I have just found a house with livery on site for the winter. But as you can imagine, all this moving and disruption has shattered my already delicate finances!
So what do I do with my beloved mare? I would really love to find someone to share her but having tried in the past and failed, any tips how do I go about this? I am happy to look after her day to day but I'd love for a young rider to enjoy and compete her. She is well schooled and lovely to ride and loves competing. Where can I find a decent young jockey? I've tried pony club websites, facebook etc to no avail. And what kind of figure should I be asking moneywise of a sharer? Any other tips?
The other options are turn her away for the winter which I could do but would rather not or put her out on loan. Unless anybody has another brainwave?!
TIA!
