I'm thoroughly enjoying the class wank in equestrian . Go working class! Boo! Down with the yacht-owning bourgeois soft-backs! Boo! Ah... class... it is the best... the only thing worth caring for. Though seriously, I don't mind that rich people are rich. I just can't stand how clueless they are.
1. Rolled Bridle-- black, cob sized. Has attachment for a flash, but as my friend sold it to me, it never had the flash. I've used other flashes from other bridles but it's never had it's own. Originally priced new at almost $400, my friend paid $200, I paid $150. Rather used looking so asking $100 obo. Adjusts at the top rather than the sides. Reins included. Fit Aria's dam well (and she was...
Leipzig was amazing, but I don't feel quite ready to write about it yet. In the meantime, here are some interesting animal behaviour links I mostly stole from MetaFilter: A new way to keep the cat off the kitchen worktop [Page contains embedded video, but no sound] Camel versus bin . Did you know that the bin is the ancient enemy of the camel? Neither did I. But this young one does. Ursula Le...

I normally wouldn't do this, but this is just hilarious. It's essentially a Livejournal community drama that I'd like to share with my friends who read this and aren't in that community. "Livejournal drama" is short for "exciting exploration of human nature" as far as I'm concerned. Take a young male, a self-proclaimed horse trainer/expert. Stick him in a large online community of horse people (who...
For much of the last thirty years, it would be accurate to say that Ray Hunt was the best horseman in the world. It was his work that helped popularise the teaching of Tom and Bill Dorrance, focussing on seeing things from the horse's point of view. He was a teacher to a great number of top trainers now, the first modern clinician and an inspiration to many thousands of horsepeople around the world...
I'm officially pathetic. I have nothing worthwhile to post about, but I am in a compulsive posting state of mind. So, let me ask this. Is anyone else sorta afraid of what they'll do on LJ when Supernatural is done? Because, ya know, I've tried watching other comms and such. I watch equestrian and sf_drama and blah, blah, a few others that are not Supernatural related, but... Here's...
He is doing wonderfully, is nice and fat, and was happy to be out of his blanket. I chatted with the woman who runs the barn and she said, "You know, I've started clipping a chain to his halter because with the chain he walks very politely. Without the chain sometimes I have to correct him when he gets anxious to get to his grain, and he does NOT like to be corrected!" Me: "HAHAHAHAHA, no he...
