We're Moving Yards!!! Amended to add....

[MrsMozart]

Yup. Again.

Ho hum

.

Current yard has lovely people, all year turn-out, and not bad stables, but no school and the hacking is limited: one route is via fields that we must stay to the edge of - Dizz not very good with that or the mud; the other route is straight out onto a busy B road (once one has negotiated the gate!).

New yard has: lovely people, lovely school (with lights, included in the rent), and lovely stables. Dizz's stable is big and open and airy and it's in a big and open and airy barn

. Only drawback is that they have to be in at night - no time limits, but in none-the-less

. It's also further away. And more expensive.

The owner's daughter is keen on BSJA, so Daughter is happy

.

**Actually it's now nine horses...**

**So, tomorrow we move Dizzy, Little Cob, Little Lad, Big Cob, New Lad, Little Lady, Young 'Un... and Tiger and Monty 'cos Wimbles is going with us!

**

Plus cabinets, mahoosive feed bins, normal feed bins, more rugs than you'd find in a rug shop, saddles galore, rubber mats (argh!!!), and a whole host of Other Stuff.

We must be mad. Absolutely barking mad lol. But hopefully we'll be able to work the horses properly

. Dizz will get some back end muscle, LC and BC will jump for joy, NL will learn about being a leisure horse, LLady will continue her education, and LL will just enjoy the attention

.

Wish us luck!

Good Luck! Sounds like a good move and the routine of coming in / going out may help Dizz to settle

Plus the barn set-up .

Don't over-do it too much!

 

[Pedantic]

Good luck, happy moving

 

[indiat]

Good luck! It sounds as if the riding will be a lot safer.

 

[Chico Mio]

Well, Mrs M I am pleased that you have found somewhere for the tribe!

Please, please take it easy with the moving. You still need to be careful, although I'm sure that you know that and you will be a good girl.

Best of luck for tomorrow - hope the weather isn't horrible for you.

 

[the watcher]

Good luck! I was exhausted enough moving two

 

[MrsMozart]

Thank you folks

.

The nice people are lending us their lorry(!), which I will be driving on the grounds that I have the most experience and should have had the most sleep by then lol. I find it less tiring to drive a lorry than tow a trailer so

.

...going to see Jools Holland tomorrow evening...

 

[Chestnutmare]

wow wee...i really hope it all goes well for you all and please be careful yourself and not to over do it....

[Keltic]

Fingers crossed the move goes well!!

[ForeverBroke_]

*Mumbles*

Aswell as Joe Pasquali and Daniella Westbrook..

Sort of goes downhill from there

 

[3Beasties]

Good Luck with the move

I bet the new yard owner thought all their Xmases had come at once, 9 new liveries in one day

EDT to suit

 

[Katie__Connie]

good luck with the move!!!

 

[Gingerwitch]

Dont you think its time for a bit of a relapse? think you need to take to your bed until at least Sunday pm, when all that lugging has been done x

 

[Keltic]

PPPPPPPPPPPMMMMMMMMMMM'SSSS Please lol!! Just typed a very eloquent reply and bu@@er me i sent it and didnt save it!! and your in box is full

 

[Booboos]

I don't envy you such a huge move!!! Hope it all goes smoothly and you don't forget any of the horses!

 

[CalllyH]

Good luck with it all - hope I can come and see the new place!

 

[CalllyH]

Forgot to say is this to a yard in notts - if so PM please on which one it is!

 

[MrsMozart]

A relapse is a cunning plan!

Hm. There's a good chance we'll forget someone or something, or take someone or something we shouldn't lol.

CH, of course you can

. It's outside Notts..., well outside lol.

 

[debsflo]

good luck.hope all goes smoothly

 

[Coffee_Bean]

Oooh where are you off to this time?! Think I must have missed a post too- who is new lad, little lady and young'un?!!!!!

 

[MrsMozart]

Thankies

New Lad is Friend's new boy, an ex-racer (he's rather gorgeous).
Little Lady is Friend's daughter's three year old NF (had her since she was a babe).
Young 'Un is Friend's other daughter's NF yearling.

 

[CalllyH]

ahhh booo I was hoping it was 15 miles towards me not away!!!

 

[Flame_]

I was wondering what's with all the horses, I thought you only had 3 Mrs M? Sounds like you've acquired lots of loyal followers, LOL.

 

[Echo Bravo]

Best of luck with the move. did you use a furniture remover for the rugs and co. Not the horses I hasten to add

 

[funkyfilly_92]

Good luck.

X

 

[MrsMozart]

Sorry! But you can still come visit CH

Lol, more like me following them

. In theory there's three of us with nine equines..., but the ponies are the daughters really

.

Could do with the removal men!

Any offers gratefully accepted lol

.

 

[Dubsie]

Glad you got it all sorted, and the new place sounds just what you need. Bet the old YO is gutted they didn't get a move on with building the school, loosing 9 x livery must surely be a dent in income.
Hope the move goes smoothly. It might be worth considering hiring a man-and-van of the sort that does the loading and unloading, that charges an hourly rate plus mileage. SHould think they're looking for work at the mo as the housing market is going to be slowing down for CHristmas and was a bit grim anyway.

 

[alwaysbroke]

Good luck with the move Mrs M hope you settle in quickly x
