Seems very strange for her to reiterate the point 3 times.....and a strange thing to put in an ad.....more something you would try to explain in person IMO.

Nice horse though, nothing special to me.

Id go and look - personally the horse doesnt do much for me, but thats beside the point! Some people are odd and write rubbish adverts with way too much detail, they get seduced by the lack of word limit! I recently sold my horse because I couldnt 'click' with him - not the best reason in the world for selling but it was true - if I really thought about it, there were loads of little niggles about my horse that wound me up - someone else in a different situation wouldn't think twice about them.

Hmmm definitely very strange to mention how you "just can't get on" with a horse, especially after you've said he's easy to do in every respect. Makes you wonder really!

Sorry, not a fan on first glance, and 'just cant get on' would defo need more investigation.

the ad doesn't say she "can't get on"....it say's "i just cant get on with him"...two totally different meanings.....


if he is within our budget, and you are interested OP then pop along and have a look....

Sorry JM07, omitted the 'with' - yes would certainly be totally different meaning! Thanks for that.

Not strange shes being honest, also it saves people asking the same question over and over....

'Why are you selling if hes so good?'

As she has already stated in her ad that her and the horse just dont get on...

I would just like to say thanks to all of you people that have something to say without even knowing the full story...
The ad that started this convo was for my horse, and I wanted to be honest in the advert as I have had my time wasted when viewing horses and didn't want to put others in the same boat! There is nothing wrong with the horse it is genuinely just a clash of personalities...Im sure you have all met people that you don't like without being able to put your finger on exactly why?!?! He has now been loaned to a novicey 12yo girl for the next few weeks, which says alot about his temperament and how easy he is to do I would say! Thanks for making me feel like an idiot in the meantime though
