Who ate all the rugs

[millmo]

All winter I've been moaning about not having enough rugs for our 4. I was aware that there were a couple of rugs in my garage waiting to be repaired or reproofed. So today I braved the garage or should that be the overflow tack room. Well there was a huge pile of rugs. So far I have packed up 8 turnout rugs 2 stable rugs and a fleece. Looking at the pile thats left there is at least another 10 rugs. Well at least I found out who ate all the rugs. ?‍ and there I was moaning to my daughter about having 7 bridles and 7 saddles for 3 horses ( 1 is retired).

I have a large pile of rugs in my tackroom mostly for horses and ponies that are no longer with us.

I ought to have a sort out really but keep putting it off!

Our pony came with about 8 rugs....it baffles me!!!

I remember when we had 3...1 New Zealand turnout rug, 1 stable rug and an under rug for colder weather. We all coped pretty well ?

I have to admit to having been a rug addict when I had my last boy - I probably had over 30. I didn't use most of them but I couldn't resist a 'bargain' - and there's nothing quite like a nice fresh new rug.
I used a 100 or 200g stable, a dry rug when he had been bathed if chilly and a 100g, 200g, and 400g (when he lived out and it was snowing all night). So the other 25+ rugs were pretty much redundant.

Almost as bad as me who won’t throw away old, ripped rugs because they have sentimental value!

Glad its not just me then. One of the rugs in my garage I don't even remember having

We made a good bit of money from people with rug addictions, both the people who had too many too fit in their house and those mad for a bargain. Sold a crazy number at a tack sale and made about £1000 for the sanctuary ponies. So, keep at it and donate when you run out of room please ??

I recently went round and picked up various rugs from different sheds, etc.....
14 in total !
I have natives
Who hardly ever need a rug
All washed and reproofed now ?

I sort of failed to mention that only one of mine gets rugged but I have the rugs just incase. Although I am lucky as 3 do take the same size rugs
