this is the amazing thing untacked skyla is and can be dangerous. Under saddle she is the perfect angel. How mad is that!?! and no one will believe what she can actually do it all looks made up. Yet sadly when they do get to meet her in stable or field that get a very very big shock. So you'll be fine fizz she'll be tacked up :D
Nik-n-Kia

Hes a totally good boy hun literally 99% of the time hes not allowed to be bad haha :D Sadly that 1% isn't normally small things its normal in a vol style which is over the top. :o (Rear) but as its 1% you hardly see it just when you do its normally like a full blow tantrum rather then a lead up. But hes never done that at a show yet.
He did it to Aunty Nik-n-Kia the other day in the school when i got off - he thought he had finished and aunty nik asked him to move off back round. He said "No!" politely aunty Nik now knows to reverse con him so she asked opposite direction and he was like "Ok thats cool" took few steps and went "OMG u conned me!!" Threw mini rear then attempted half ready for full blown! At the same time i was like "U big Sh!t" and shouted " EH EH EH EH" which is ** being bad in our terms. IT was hilarious he stopped in his tracks looked at me and walked off away with Aunty Nik and did some lovely work. End of tantrum. Looks like finallly found right buttons to press :D
BabyBear
12th Apr 2008, 07:08 AM
Aww - bless him and his wee baby tantrums!:)
My C has decided that rearing/kicking out at the farrier is acceptable again:rolleyes: I've yet to witness this behaviour but me thinks baby C needs some extra training!

Baby Vol was good for me i have to admit. He had a little huff at the begininning but Nookster sorted it out without too much of a fuss (he really listens to her!!!)
He did give me some lovely work tho. I love him (just dont tell Kia!!!;):D)

15th Apr 2008, 09:14 PM
Hey Fizz!!!
Could you post the full address and post code for the yard lease.
I will be navigating via SATNAV lol.
If thats not possible can you give me a rough whereabouts. I travel down the A71 to go to west calder a fair bit so directions from there would be great!!
Nikki xxxx
BabyBear
15th Apr 2008, 09:26 PM
I was just gonna ask for the same thing Nikki!:D
Post code or rough directions would be fab!:)
Back2Black
16th Apr 2008, 07:33 AM
I am not sure what time I will be there... Probable around 9am as long as the night before isn't too late ha ha!
amylou_84
16th Apr 2008, 09:12 AM
I think the post code is this - EH14 6AT
If you stay on the A71 and follow that and turn off for Kirknewton and go through there then follow that and turn left up Lanark Road then when you get to Currie turn right up Kirkgate then follow that up the hill....
Someone else might ive you better directions but that seems easiest from google maps :D
Nookster
16th Apr 2008, 10:12 AM
Aye would agree with Amy – Nik turn off at junction Amy said – no point you coming all the way along to West Calder as you will just be turning back on yourself to head back to Currie.
Fizz
18th Apr 2008, 05:40 PM
