Well, then I must be a bit sadistic as well!

When I had to move Ibn, I phoned a stable yard and the lady who answered (the mom of the owner) said "They REALLY love their horses" in reply to my question if it was possible NOT to have a stable and have Ibn sleep out, implying that I didn't love Ibn as much, 'cos why else would I be so cruel as to make him sleep out in the open?!

Also, I sent my new baby to a place where he could run around and grow up with 10+ horses, hilly, large with good pasture.  The place is slap bang in the middle of polo and racing yards and the owner is constantly phoned to say "Your horses are out!"
