After the worst winter I can remember and first winter with the horses at home, with no facilities, i had to give up, keep the horses in most of the time and abandon riding for 6 weeks.
2020 hasn't quite got off to the start anyone would want. All Christmas I have been battling a really bad case of Uveitis with Beanie and unfortunately he never recovered.
It was nice this weekend to get a bit of relief from all that wet stuff! Although a bit nippy, the early mornings were very pretty with the frost across the landscape!
Exploring new locations on horseback is one of the real joys of horse ownership. Just load up your horsebox and away you go! We’ve rounded up just a few of our favourite spots here to give you some inspiration for your next ride – most are based in the countryside but there are a few surprises!
Like most of us, come January 1st Diva decided to make a New Year’s Resolution. And again, like most of us, it involves exercise. Unfortunately, since she is only a little Shetland pony, this resolution also includes me!
One of the many great things about owning a horse is that you get the chance to attend a wealth of equestrian events taking place across the UK, throughout the year.
It’s a new year and a fresh start as we enter 2020! I'm very excited about this year as I have a lot of plans as to what I want to achieve so best get my butt in gear! Annoyingly my back is still not 100% - although it felt better in the afternoon before I started back at work - typical grr!
We hope everyone has had a lovely Christmas!! It's been a bit hectic for us in the last couple of weeks running up to the big day but I'm pleased to say I managed to get the horsebox out to a show and it ran beautifully hurrah.
