Well after the fall last week and today (still broken) but determined I got on naughty mare and thought i'd just walk her round the farm, each time we turned a corner which faced the gate off the farm direction she started her skipping sideways, mini rears and generall nappy naughtiness, so after 5 mins and seriously not up to any fight or risk falling again I took her back to stables and told her she'd just signed her own for sale sign - don't think she understood though 
But seriously I think we are now just not helping each other, i'm not confident enough to give her the confidence she needs and vice versa, it must be me that's causing the problem because she always hacked alone and its only since i've been her main rider (son lost interest) that she's become like she has.
So admitted defeat and window shopping round horsey for sale websites my list of what I want is ;-
15.2hh +, stocky/cobby type.
Under 12 years old
Quite/Bombproof to Hack
Everything else i'm not bothered about mare/gelding, colour/looks, don't need to work in an outline, don't need to jump, don't need to do dressage, just needs to love being loved and hacked once/twice a week.
Can I find anything suitable for under £1500 - Nope
am I asking too much ?
