Would be really interested to know what people do for a living that come onto HHO. Obviously we all have the same interest..........i.e.........our equine friends. But just curious to know what everyone does.........

I work as a Practice Manager at a Health Centre but have been around horses since I was 4 and been breeding them for the last 14 years. Not a competition rider, in fact the last horse I rode was Geneve about 2.5 years ago now........saying that I do miss the riding part, but whenever I buy a mare to ride my hubby decides to put them in foal..........

What about everyone else?
 
I'm a farmer. I have a hay farm which makes top quality horse hay.

I also have a boarding stables on my farm.

I also buy and produce youngsters, so have an equine selling business.

And I have a trail riding business.

My husband helps, although he has his own computer company back in England aswell.
 
Part time Ski Instructor at a dry ski slope, also volunteer one afternoon a week at a charity shop.

I trained as a Radiographer then progressed to management and ended up as Head of Modernisation for a large NHS Trust. Gave up when I realised I was banging my head against a brick wall!
Now run the stud farm full time - much more rewarding

I was employed in Risk, Compliance and Internal Audit and am currently on garden leave following redundancy.

Am hoping to be re-employed in a similar field very soon...altho I have to admit it's quite nice hanging around the house not doing much, which I've never done before... Working on my novel, hacking out on my old mare, practising my piano, getting up when I'm good & ready...
 
I am a student who has yet to make up her mind on what degree she will graduate with, am currently zoology but am swaying to more ecology.
Hopefully when i graduate will work in the conservation, fieldwork area of ecology
 
I'm a farmer's wife.....loosely translated to mean an unpaid farm hand!

We own a 230 acre dairy farm. Been in the family for three generations.

Before I met Duncan, I was working as a CPN for Combined Healthcare, NHS Trust. Loved my job but Duncan asked me to give up work as we were never seeing each other.

Now I help him and play ponies!
 
I'm a law student.......... so really I don't earn a living, but I am aiming to make a good one some day

I`m a foster carer, we currently have one boy with us and another boy coming in about 2 weeks time. We did have a girl for nearly 2 years until 2 months ago, she has now moved on. We have our own son too.
I was singing on the circuit for almost 10 years. But due to my hubbys health scare and the children, we decided not to do that anymore.
