Am trying to ride 4 or 5 times a week. Totally loving the weather
Thank you all for the lovely comments on the overpayments. Just realised that the lack of work this month may mean nothing for the savings pot. Must try harder not to fritter timeMade it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!0 -
We use baby wipes for round eyes, dribbly chops, dusty hooves...we probably shouldnt.0

Not sure Floppy Saddler came out today to fit a jumping saddle and decided none fitted and that I should continue to work Handsome Baby on the flat for another 3 to 4 months to get him to lift back more.
Not sure what I thought re saddler - was first time I've had him out. But that has been very MSE as I didn't buy one.
Plan is to take Handsome Baby to some clear rounds first.
Still on the positive side money sits in overpayment account for a while longer and may be a real overpayment in September!Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

A jumping saddle?! Crumbs you don't do things by half do you! Are you using the one that needs to be fitted every few months now, hopefully still fitting? Some work on the lunge should help him fill out a bit if you're still a bit nervous of working him too much.
I did try a horse for sale in an eventing saddle and didn't move an inch despite him playing funny !!!!!!s, would have been off in a shot in a normal one. That saddle did cost £2,500 though!!Mortgage Apr 18 £417,894 BTL Mar 18 £162,857
