Weatherbeeta Freebies . . .

For those of you who may have frequented our website just recently, you may have noticed a few more changes. My last blog (published back in August - slap my wrists) mentioned the fact that we are changing into an equestrian site, and this has been done, but it is still a work in progress.

Our home page introduces you to a site dedicated to your horse - including some rather attractive flashing banners designed by yours truly) - and advertising our range of horse rugs, including turnout rugs, stable rugs, etc. But for the non-equestrian customers out there, do not fear. Our Outlet tag at the top will take you directly to the other items we are still selling; nutritional supplements, household goods, exercise and sports equipment, and camping goods and tents, etc. It's all still there.

AND, I'd just like to direct your attention quickly to the new logo - also designed by yours truly.

For a limited time, all our Weatherbeeta horse rugs and equestrian clothing come with a free item. These are ranging from hoof picks, to socks, and vary depending on what item you are looking at purchasing.

So, for all our equestrian customers out there, get in quick before the offer ends . . .

Lightweight Turnout Rug Moments . . .

Our dearest Equestrian leader wrote her recent blog on our new equestrian range, with all things equestrian, saddlery and rugs (to quote). As with all new products we get in, we have to spend a day doing photo shoots so we can then put them up on our website. This is were Lisa's Will galloped in to help. What a star he is.

Lisa also posted some of Will's fantastic photos on her blog, but neglected many. And I don't blame her. Some of these photos give evidence to the fact that her horse is no ordinary horse. The famous quote from `Banana man` springs into mind: "When Eric eats a banana . . ." - only this time it's: "When Will puts on his rug . . ."

They knew the day wasn't going to go strictly to plan when Will decided to show his new strengths by standing, then slowly and gently removing each leg in turn until he was balancing himself on one leg. Such strength.

He then decided to show his fantastic hovering skills by hovering himself all around his field. He was dead chuffed with himself, until . . .




. . . towards the end things started to go wrong for him. Gone was his graceful hovering as he tripped (on what exactly is still unknown).



Then afterwards, as if to add insult to his injured pride, he was then caught trying to hover again in a different rug, but all he could manage was using his tail as a propeller to propel himself along.

These are the photos that they didn't want you to know about. But don't let these pictures fool you! Don't be duped into thinking that if your horse dons a new lightweight turnout rug they'll end up hovering all around your field. Will is a special horse . . . and this only happens "When Will eats a Banana . . ."
