By Sue Palmer on December 23, 2021

A Guest Blog by Hilary Moses We kicked off November with a trip to our physio, the lovely Sue Palmer no less! Zen naturally holds himself in an outline which, although it looks nice, isn't necessarily good for him. Sue thought that it was possible he'd been broken in side reins and possibly left in them for long periods, […]

A Guest Blog by Hilary Moses Max and ?! October Last month I made the decision to buy a new horse. Very exciting and not something I thought I'd be doing at my age. The thinking was that Max maybe needed to just rest and see if things improved. However, I'd also agreed with my […]

A Guest Blog from Sam Ireson Well where to start?! I’s been a little while since my last update. Rabbit has of course been an absolute superstar as always. We went to two further Area Festivals.
