How exactly did you get the situation sorted, OP? In a different way that may be of help to others in the future?
Interestingly, there is a similar thread from OP here asking for advice about obtaining a loan of £100 to pay her livery bills.
If that's not a troll thread, I'll eat my hat!!;)A cunning plan, Baldrick? Whatever it was, it's got to be better than pretending to be mad; after all, who'd notice another mad person around here?.......Edmund Blackadder.0 -

I remember the thread.
Be interesting to know how the OP managed to sort out the money for her horse in her first thread.0 -
If you had worked for at least 2 years and made enough NIC you could have claimed contribution based JSA (up to 6 months) and your redundancy package wouldn't have even been an issue in claiming as it's not means tested.0

This seems one of the few occasions for a payday loan. Borrow the minimum, pay back all except the £30 immediately and pay the rest back at the end of your first week.loose does not rhyme with choose but lose does and is the word you meant to write.0 -
The horse is now for sale - at any tesco store - other stores are available!0

My sister runs a livery stable and she says that owning a horse can be very expensive indeed and that lots of owners take on far more than they can realistically afford. Sadly, the result can seriously affect the welfare of the animal when insurance premiums haven't been met and vets' bills are unpaid.I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.0

I know people get attached to pets but it sounds like this is doing the poor animal more Harm than good.
it may sound harsh but probably best to give it up to someone who can care for it properly.0
