Saddler Came :)

[suzii]

YAY!! The nicest poshest most expensive one was the one that fitted It's a saddle company GP with round cantle. soooo comfy!

Before I rode the buckle on my reins broke - saddler had a look and said he could punch another hole but that those reins were about to break any second! He also said that my bridle was in the same state and that somebody had tried to mend it at some point and just got a thread and wrapped it round and round!!

Some time this week he is bringing:

Saddle with girth and stirrups

Bridle with bit

and running martigale!

Oooo we are going to spend loads - he said he would try and get us a discount!

you are so lucky!!! I am saving for new saddle and everytime I get near having the dosh something comes up - exhaust went on the landie- and I am back to no cash cazzie:(

;D It's so good being 13 and your mum having to pay for everything!!!!

my mum doesnt pay for anything!!

the condition of having a horse wass that i would get a job and pay for it (except farrier and insurance), and it has taught me so much responsibility and "the value of money"!

the saddle fitter is coming to us soon, get teh feeling im going to be poor! got two i can trade in, but dont think i'l be getting much for them! x

I do contribute anything I can. But the sort of jobs I can get don't give me much more than £20 a week! My horse would probably die!

But I do save my mum money by doing all the work (on DIY) and by helping oher people out and hoping they might pay me!!

Also we bought nearly everything else second hand which saved a heck of alot of money!

Good luck with your saddle Suzie, it sounds fab. As does Sprite. You've got him one that fits and that's the important thing, its just a nice bonus its a comfy posh one too. Look after it well and it'll last for years.
