Thank you everyone for being patient with replies.

We have had a fabulous time away on holiday, a much needed rest and time spent with family.

It will be all systems go tomorrow but for now I’ll be enjoying one last evening off!

14/04/2026

🚨📣ADVANCED NOTICE📣🚨

I will be away taking a little break to spend some well needed time with my family from Friday 17th until Monday 20th April.

Messages received between these dates will not be responded to until Tuesday 21st.

I am currently working through messages at the moment and will aim to get back to messages by Thursday evening, after this work messages will be put to one side (I only have one phone for work and personal use currently, so politely they will be ignored but left unread or please save sending them until next week!).

Diary update - May dates are fast filling 🫠 and happy to start booking into June, please get booked in early and well in advance because you wonderful people are keeping me very busy!

It’s not just saddles!

I also hold stock of a selection of different brands of girths which can be bought on the day or ordered in if necessary.

🌟Tapestry Comfort Girth🌟
Available in short and long, black and brown.

The girth designed to ‘hug’ your horse, uses a sternum pad and triple elastic to give with the horses rib cage and relieve pressure. I find these work well on a variety of horses and can help with some of those prone to saddle slip.

🌟GFS Freedom Girth🌟
Available in short and long, in black, brown and Bordeaux.

Anatomically shaped, soft and supple leather with memory foam padding, with all important triple elastic on both side, a lovely design of girth for those who have a slightly more forward girth groove.

🌟GFS Ergonomic Girth🌟
Available in long length in black and brown.

Ergonomically designed to give some elbow relief but for those not needing quite such a shaped girth. Triple elastic on both sides and additional D-ring attachments.

Also available to order:
Wintec and Arena comfort girths and stirrup leathers and webbers from GFS, Wintec, Arena and Bates.

On the subject of stirrup leathers, some of my favourites are the wide balance stirrup leathers from , I will be gradually adding a few to my stock but currently I have a pair in brown for client trials! Super soft premium calfskin, anti stretch 2” wide leathers. Let me know if you want to try!

A little snippet of some of the lovely saddles which I’ve got in stock. New, ex-demo and secondhand, a real selection from different brands.

Fully independent means, I work with all different brands to find the right fit for your horse and you!

As usual, a little added note to say I am trying to get back to my hundreds of messages and diary booking. I am already booking into May so do not leave it until last minute. I’m waiting for replies if you haven’t heard from me by Friday evening prompt again.

Super excited to be getting on with repairs in my new workshop space 🥰

Finally catching up on all those repairs that have been with me for an age!

Of course, Odin deserved to have a new bed for being top workshop dog… although I’m not sure he agrees 😍

Everything is better when the sun is shining! ☀️🕶️

A day in the life of a saddle fitter… 4 yards, 5 horses, 1 saddle repair and 1 Greg’s breakfast 😋

12/03/2026

I spent the day yesterday doing a little bit of content filming… I didn’t do any filming because I am:
A) Completely useless at remembering to do any while I’m working and
B) Hate watching myself back and listening to myself.

I’d love to do more, I love talking through saddles and fitting and trying to impart some of my knowledge to my customers because I genuinely believe it’s not just magic and it’s such an important part of the welfare of our ridden horses.

Either way I left the filming to the professionals and tried to hide as much as I could, which was very little as the whole point of me being there was to do the fitting!

Anyway, here’s a little photo of some of the saddles which I took along and I’ll share some of the videos on to my page when I’m brave enough.

In other news, I am working through my messages… it is getting harder to get back to my messages in a 24 hour turnaround time as I have to wait for replies for appointments (I can only hold appointment slots for 24 hours). So if you haven’t heard from me in a few days, either don’t panic I will get back to you or just prompt me again.

Just to add… please do not ask for any March dates. I am full to burst and might start to melt if anyone else asks 🫠
April is filling up too. I’m also having a holiday in April which adds to the lack of dates. Current clients particularly, if you are needing an appointment in the next month to 6 weeks please book now!

From chaos to well stocked, organised chaos ready for the day ahead!

Time fora bit of fun… how many saddles are loaded into my car today?

The best bit? Being full independent, means I work with so many great brands to make sure it’s all about the right saddle for the horse and for you.

Anyone want to take a guess at how many different brands I’ve got with me today?

📣Announcement📣
Another announcement… I am really pleased to be able share that I’ve added another brand into my stock.

Looking forward to receiving my delivery and showing you all what will be available to bring along for appointments.

In other news, March is pretty much full and I am booking into April so please don’t leave things too late.

Finally, I am having some time off this weekend… I was due to have the whole of this weekend off plus Monday but due to delivery issues last week, I am now working Saturday.

The tiny human turns 2 on Monday 😱 *minor panic at where that time has gone!* It does mean I intend to well and truly be switching off from fitting and saddlery over the weekend so I will do my best to get back to everyone but otherwise it will be Tuesday.

22/02/2026

I ended last week pretty much looking like the ponies did on the New Forest on Saturday afternoon… a mixture of disappointed, frustrated and if I’m honest a little bit angry at some of the things which go on in the equine industry, on this particular occasion in my own industry!

The positive being I am glad I got to see them and that over the weekend I got to work with some other absolutely fabulous professionals.

In other more positive (less whiney!) news I am very excited to get my work bench and racking organised in the new workshop ready to get set up and ready to work at full capacity 🥰

Sundays are for splashing in muddy puddles 🌧️ and prepping for the coming week!

Car is all organised and ready for this weeks appointments, it also got a rare inside clean… just ignore the outside.

I have an array of messages 📩 that I will likely get back to this evening with a couple of repairs to get done 🪡🔨, but for now it’s time for some family fun.

I promise to get back to the saddlery and saddle fitting content soon!

🚨Announcement on Payments 🚨
💥With immediate effect I will not be offering post appointment invoicing, my terms and conditions do state that payment must be made on the day.

❗️I have a card reader that accepts all good credit and debit cards along with contactless payments, I also accept BACS and if you know that signal on the yard is poor please be prepared and bring cash.

📣I do not like to use my social media to moan, however as it is only February and I’m already fed up of having to chase payments this will be changing.

‼️If I continue to have any issues with unpaid invoices, I will have to implement a payment on booking system, which will also mean cancellation charges will be applied.

⏱️Please remember I am only a small business, I am also a mother to a wild toddler and my time is limited, I would much rather be spending it doing a multitude of other things both saddlery and non-saddlery related!
