Are you addicted to horses?

Friday 5 June 2009

I would spend every day at my local stables if I could.

As it is, I work there every weekend, helping to take care of the horses.

The yard is definitely my favourite place to be. I never get bored and there is always something to keep me occupied.

I do a range of different jobs, from feeding to mucking out, and whatever I'm busy doing, I love every second.

I don't even mind what the weather is like – I have worked on hot, sunny days and also in freezing cold, heavy snow.

And I really hate it when I have to miss a weekend because of a holiday or some sort of 'special' occasion!

Even in my free time, I like to look through equestrian magazines and horsey websites, looking for handy tips and useful advice.

In short, I think I may well be addicted to horses. But as far as addictions go, I can't think of anything nicer!
