Urgent advice needed - how to evict livery from hell

I can now breathe easy again as they have now left the yard.

After several false starts where she said she was all set to go but 'strangely' the prospective yards were suddenly 'full' she finally went. I feel so relieved!!

We did see a solicitor for advice but thankfully it didn't go the legal route in the end.

I will never take someone by recommendation again. I feel very angry with the Yard Owner who originally got us into the situation. She told barefaced lies to me directly over the phone. I did text her at one point when I was feeling very low (husband away on business and me housebound with a broken pelvis). I was in a lot of pain and feeling vulnerable with the problem livery texting me constantly so I thought I'd tell the YO just how her actions in sending this person to us had affected me. I was very measured and polite in my wording of the text but told her exactly what her actions were and what effect they'd had on me. She then told friends of mine that I'd sent her an abusive text! Some people don't like to hear the truth about themselves. If she wanted to see an abusive text she should have seen the ones I was getting from the livery :mad:!!

Anyway, things are now back to normal at the yard and I just need to get back on my feet again (literally) as the pain from my fracture is still excruciating 2 month on from the injury..... Does anyone reading this have any experience of a fractured pelvis?

Thanks to all who replied earlier on - it was very encouraging
 
I am very pleased for you Oriel.
Regarding the broken pelvis, depends on the break but an old friend did it andshe wasn't back to normal until about 10 months after surgery, by which time she had quite a lot of strength building to do. It's one of those parts of the body that is very hard to rest as even when sitting or lying, it is bearing weight.

Regarding the livery...good riddance and for the other YO...truth hurts and she is being defensive. Ignore it and any mention of it from others, just pull the, "oh blimey...had forgotten about all that" card. Problem gone, forget it and move on with a smile. If other YO can't do that...it's her problem not yours :-)
 
Good news. After it happened to me I decided that having a livery was just not worth the agreevation so I am having pigs instead.
Never underestimate the harm these people can do. Its like someone moving into your house, sitting on your sofa and then getting annoyed and abusive when the homeowner complain that you've emptied the fridge.
So when people are looking for small livery yards to rent this is why no one wants you.
 
So pleased they have gone and you can concentrate on recovering oriel.

You also did the right thing to inform the other YO that their approach was not on.

Big best wishes for your recovery xxxx
 
So pleased livery problem is now resolved and moved, now do look after yourself and get better.

There is nothing like pain to make you feel low, but hopefully as the weather improves things will improve for you. I am not sure about pelvis, but I know with hip ops once healing is done the work to build up muscel strength again is really important and helps with the pain etc, so hope you get good physio when you need it.
 
So glad you've managed to sort it all out - I can imagine your relief.

I broke my pelvis in two places - the result of a RTA. The surgeons decided not to operate on it but I did have to remain immobile (bed bound) for a 2 weeks (I was in hospital for this time) then when I went home I had to not stand/walk for another 6 weeks before I was allowed to try little steps.

The cold weather won't be helping you - try and keep as warm as possible and make sure you take your recommended pain killer allowance. My doctors told me given time pelvic injuries heal well - you have to be patient.

After 5 months I was back in the saddle :) No problems now but I'm not as flexible as I used to be and cold weather is still not my friend.
 
Another who's followed this thread without posting on it.

We had a tenant from hell like this in a house we were renting out a good few years back; she was a nasty little piece of work and by god she knew her "rights" and loved to shout them out at us every time we were within earshot. Unfortunately the law is STILL very biased against the Wicked Landlord in cases like this, and so I'm so relieved for you OP that you've managed to get rid. Often things like this can drag on and you have to resort to enforcement which is horribly unpleasant.

Hate to sound preachy, but am sure you've learnt a lesson from this:) It looks like both the livery and YO saw you were vulnerable and took advantage tho'.
 
I once had a livery from hell. We were only a small yard and we told her that we were being investigated by the council regarding business rates/running a commercial business so we pretended that we were asking all liveries to leave as a temporary basis until the matter was sorted. Luckily she never asked to come back!

I had 3 months on crutches and another month walking. Make sure you rest and go back if it is still that painful. :(
 
Go to the Police and have a word about the texts etc and see what they have to say, I would also be speaking to the other YO who has well and truly dumped on you and see what they have to say. I really hope that you can get something sorted soon.
 
I'm glad she's gone - must be a huge relief for you. Hopefully now you can concentrate on getting better.

Our yard has recently got rid of a few nightmare liveries - that seemed weird but harmless individually, but together were awful & it creates such an unnecessary atmosphere. I don't know what posses people to act like that?! :rolleyes:
 
So glad for you OP - its horrible dealing with nightmare liveries. i'd be seriously peeved at the other YO. I can understand her wanting awful livery off her yard but if i was in that position i wouldnt palm her off onto someone else with a pack of lies.

fwiw I'm always very very cautious about offering people temporary livery, or replying to those 'desperately/urgently' seeking livery, as there's usually a reason. I do wish we had a blacklist up here, but i spose the problem then is that when you get stuck with a bad apple you'd be stuck with it for alot longer! But thankfully as we're quite a small close-knit area news tends to travel fast anyway.

Good luck with the pelvis, hope you're on the mend.
