lucky, i'd love to do it at a riding school but they are all in the back of beyond round here
i think i might try the vets, it was kind of boring last time but they are nice there at least.

, all the places likes vets, kennels were like that too.
He ended up working in my office, which only went to show him he doesn't want to ever work in a office lol.
I hope you find something, what about farms, riding schools, grooming parlours?
yeah tell me about it
the first work experience i did in year 10, i ended up doing it in a school with my aunt because i couldnt find a place anywhere else.. never again!
the trouble is it has to be very local or i can't get there, and there is not much choice around here. guess i'll keep trying, suprised my hair isn't falling out yet
thanks

My friend's daughter was very lucky, she got in at our local equine vet's and ended up staying there doing her full vet nurse course! All the best to you, I hope you find something.
that is lucky
it is difficult since i live in a town, there are no rescue centres that i can get to. at the moment it is looking like vets or groomers, if they'll take me.. thankyou
