Wow, that's awesome! I LOVE uilleann pipes. We have a couple of excellent uilleann pipers at one of the sessions I regularly attend. I don't know anyone named Nick Brown, whereabouts in Ontario is he? I'm in Kingston area. You'd be surprised how many traditional players there are in Ontario! There is at least one session, often more, in most big cities, and scattered throughout the countryside you can find them too. There are also some excellent workshops and schools that happen in various places across Ontario. I did a workshop with Liz Carroll not too long ago, and the Kane sisters are teaching a few hours west of me this summer. Anyways. Nice to find you!

Hi there, I saw your user name and figured you MUST be a musician. I play Irish fiddle at a couple pub sessions in my part of the world (eastern Ontario). What instrument(s) do you play? Nice to find you!

Watching that clip, I see that Clinton is very good at what he does and his timing is impeccable. I would not recommend anyone try that at home, since if your timing with tapping the horse on the...

Riding for a year or so isn't very long and while plenty of green riders do it with varying degrees of success -- and in some cases, very little indeed -- acquiring your own horse is a big leap...

When I looked at your video, you looked unbalance (as is everyone when they first learn to ride) and every time to lost your balance and tipped forwards, the horse fell into walk and then turned to...

I did fix the lunging thing and the owner said a couple days ago that she lunged fine. In fairness, the owner did learn her lesson and will never let her pal work with the horse again. Owner was...

Here are a few new pictures of Gypsum, Shire-TBx mare. Please ignore appalling leg position. I'm blaming it on the saddle and the fact that I always ride like crap in front of the camera. ;)

If I were in your shoes, I would insist on an ultrasound this week. I wouldn't put a horse on box rest for "a few months" without a clear diagnosis, and I would be even more reluctant to do so if...

See what your regular vet says. This is all secondhand. I have never dealt with this myself (knock on wood) but have friends and fellow liveries who have done. So in my secondhand experience,...

Glad you're not selling him. He is a very nice horse.

I went out there today with a view to trying something else. I thought I'd first try to see if I could drive her past the scary things on a lunge line, as you're far more powerful driving a horse...
