I think for someone who has had horses all her life, and now is the proud owner of three, I actually don’t have that much stuff. They have a saddle each, I have one pair of riding boots for training and one pair for competitions, I have two spare bridles….the list goes on. Still it was nice to go through every single item I own at the livery yard and sort through the bits and bobs.
I LOVE a good list. So I made one with all the things I would need for if Qantas or Azid ever make it to a vet gatted ride and went through all the kit I have, ticking off as I went along. I had a little pile of things to sell at the end, popped them on the Endurance Riders UK classfields page on Facebook and within hours had sent them all off to new loving homes, where they will get some proper use.
I know some things I’ve sold in the past I wish I then had but really I think I’m good at streamlining what I really need and getting rid of the rest. I can always pick something else up later on if I really needed it. Being at a livery with limited storage space you kind of have to make sure you don’t have too much stuff. As an Endurance rider, with lots of crew gear, I already have more stuff than most.
