I'm curious! Obviously there are the basics- saddle racks, bridle hooks, etc, but any cool features you'd love to implement?
That's my main question, but if your curious why (prepare for me to rant) - it's because I've got the opportunity to convert my cellar into a tack room (currently it's just got a fridge in it and a boot rack because I had no idea what to put down there!!). I got the idea from the fact I'm bringing all my food home and saddles because one, we have mice (and I'm NOT telling the landlord as her idea of sorting it is plastering the place with rat poison, I found it just about everywhere last time, and I was so paranoid I threw out all my horse feeds, not knowing if they were contaminated), and also there is a girl at my yard whom is very jealous of the vast amount of things I have in the tack room. Also, she's seriously p*ssd me off over a sponsored ride, completely set me up and made my Aunt who also boards there think I was the one who had planned it. This girl almost killed me on a hack, her horse ploughed straight into the back of my flighty but very well behaved and under control pony, triggering him to jump in front of a bus and prompting to give the passengers on the front seats a rearing display. I have refused to hack with her since, and when confronted over the fact she's dangerous with him and has no control (even in a Pelham) she replied "well he does as he's told in the field, so he thinks he it's his turn to misbehave on a hack". Ooh. Let me know what you think of that. >_<
Anyway, I have good reason to believe she's been nicking my chaff (no food, she told me, and somehow the horse is fed daily, and mine have not been being fed this chaff, yet my bin is nearly empty from being full, how is this so???) and I've also caught her guiltily in my stuff and things have been going missing. Just waiting for her to tamper with something further like my girth. Really wouldn't put it past her.
So anyway, sorry for the mini rant. Really didn't want this to be a rant, but I think I needed to vent a bit.
So what would your dream tack room look like?
