😭😭 Maternity Leave has officially started.... last day of Animal duties before this bubba arrives with a bang no doubt ❤️ absolutely spoilt by clients and friends alike.
I shall be back sooner than you know 💓

Just a little reminder for you all. I am away on holiday from 13th October returning to work on Monday 23rd. ♥️♥️

Hi guys
I'm really sorry I'm going to have to cancel all clients tomorrow..... I woke up this morning with a horrendous sore throat and its got progressively worse through the day and im now snotty & bunged up... paracetamol is not my friend and isn't helping me out at all so I think a day at home doing very little is going to be in order for the sake of my sanity & the baby.
Sorry to be last minute.com xx

Morning all 🥰

So a few people have asked me regarding when I'm going on Maternity Leave. Having discussed with hubby and my Midwife we have agreed that Friday 10th November will be my official last working day.
Now, due to the physical nature of the job I may need to give up sooner BUT I will keep everyone in the loop as best I can.

That being said I have two freelancers in mind to take over and cover any of my work whilst I'm off so fear not.... we have you covered one way or another ♥️♥️

Happy Valentines ♥️

The below statement is all us horsey people want to hear 🥳🥳🥳 not long now ♥️♥️

08/01/2023

Happy New Year to you all ♥️
First week back to work has flown by for sure. Now that I have been able to speak to all of my clients direct..... due to a huge change in circumstances I unfortunately will not be taking on any new Equine clients for the foreseeable future, will not be taking on any holiday cover and the clipping side of my business has also stopped until further notice. I will update everyone if my circumstances change and have provided any recommendations in the comments - although they may hate me as I know how bloody busy they all are 🤣🙈🤣.
Thanks again for everyone's patience and understanding ♥️♥️

And that's a wrap 🥳🥳🥳
Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thank you to each and every one of my clients, past and present for all of their support through 2022 ❤️
I return to work on Tuesday 3rd January 2023. Have a good one ###x

Shout out to all the husbands that put up with us crazy animal lovers 🥰🥰 one of our original chickens is going through a hard moult, has lost a lot of weight and generally been quite under the weather so she has come in for a bit of TLC and peace and quiet from the crappy weather. She's taken up residence in Buddy's old dog crate so she has plenty of room, food and water on tap along with some extras to help give her a bit of a boost.
Come on Gobby you've got this 💪 and thank you as always to my long suffering husband who just goes with the flow ❤️❤️

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Morning all
Sorry yet another moan!!!
My working hours are 8am to 5pm Monday to Friday. I don't work weekends unless it is for holiday cover.
I will always answer messages between 8am and 7pm but recently I've had multiple messages around midnight and to my personal page and this is absolutely not acceptable!!! I have my business page for a reason. Please use it and respect my working hours. If this is not respected I will have to remove all clients from my personal page.
Thank you 🥰

Unfortunately since I've been back it seems that people have forgotten my policy.

I need 48 hours notice for cancellations please!! Due to the nature of my work I cannot fill your space if you do not give me enough notice. I am turning people away left right and centre and have a waiting list of potential clients so if you are unable to give me 48 hours then I'm afraid you will be charged for the time that I would have been with you.

This is my livelihood and whilst I appreciate certain circumstances cannot be helped, just because I'm self employed does not mean you can book me and then drop me at the last minute.

Sorry for the moan 😔😔 thank you for understanding 🥰🥰 xx

24/10/2022

😭😭😭 I'm not ready for this 😭😭😭

20/10/2022

I really do have the best job ever 😍😍😍

19/10/2022

I am now completely fully booked for November for anything equine and fast filling up for December so let me know now if you need me.

Please remember I close completely over Christmas and New Year to spend time with my family.

Thank you to all my clients for their continued support 🥰

Slowly slowly wins the race but can't tell you how good it feels to be back doing what I love. Saturday with some of the yard at Claverings helping friends get some jump practice in, Sunday helping another friend who owns a small business and although the weather is pants, back out with the 4 legged ones today 🥰🥰 dogs and ponies.... what more could a girl want

Hi everyone. First off I just want to say thank you to everyone for your well wishes and most importantly your patience whilst I've been out of action.
So I am now starting to phase things back in and providing my consultant gives me the all okay on 20th Sept I plan to gradually build back up to my full work load with a view to be back 100% full time by 10th October.
I appreciate some of you will have had to source other arrangements and therefore will no longer need me, this is absolutely fine and I completely understand so please just be honest. But on the other hand please let me know if you do still need me and we can then discuss a plan going forwards.
Thanks again
Lizzie 😁

A little update for you guys.
Staples are now out and the consultant is really happy with how it's set & healing BUT it's to stay in its sling for another month and then we go back for more xrays 🙈🙈. Sorry guys but looks like I won't be back to work until mid October 😭😭😭 literally can't apologise enough and am absolutely gutted. Its a pretty impressive structure at least 🙈🙈 xx

02/08/2022

Hi guys. Just to keep you all updated. Just come out of the hospital having seen the consultant. Definitely going for surgery next week, theyre phoning to let me know an exact day. It's actually a little more complex than originally thought, there are in fact about 5 fragments of bone floating around 🤢🤢 so a little harder to put back together which means it needs to be done sooner rather than later.

I can't thank all of you enough for the well wishes and support from the start. I've put a few of you in touch with potential cover and I do have others that have put themselves forward to help if needed so please let me know and I will do my best to get you all sorted in the meantime.
Love to all, and give all those fluffy ones a big squish from me 🥰🥰 xx

I've seen a few posts about cantering on the stubble...... would you canter on concrete??? No!! As tempting as it is please think 🙏

As tempting as this looks… please don’t do it!!

Firstly, have you got permission from the farmer to even be on there? (I’m actually on a bridleway next to the stubble)

But right now even if you do you’d be better galloping on the road. The ground is hard, rutted, cracked and stony. It’s asking for an injury.

‘Oh but she wanted to canter so I let her!’ ‘It can’t have been that hard as I had no breaks!’ NOT an excuse. Your horse has no idea how that canter will make them feel later that day.

Take this time to improve the long forgotten walk. We’re all guilty of not doing enough of it when schooling so nows your chance!

Hi guys

So....... unfortunately yesterday I was taken into hospital having had quite a nasty fall from fat boy and have broken my collarbone. This obviously means I'm completely out of action for the foreseeable.

What this means for the business I don't know so completely appreciate that people will need to find alternative help for their animals.

Thank you for everyone's well wishes and I hope to see you all very soon.

Lots of love as always and give those fluffy ones lots of hugs and kisses 🥰🥰
