I really enjoyed that, it was nice to see how you got into horses. I would say to anyone out there dreaming the same of life buying cheap horses it’s worthwhile remembering the actual cost of the animal might be cheaper but all the care/maintenance/equipment/stabling/tuition/vet bills/ etc is the cost killer. I had three horses when dinosaurs roamed the earth and it was expensive even with my own horse property. Just keep it in mind. Bearing this though the bond you have with MUm in participating in your dream is priceless. The horsey life has to have been best investment your parents ever made.
Some of these horses i'd never be selling, they look incredible! Juggling uni and horses is so difficult though! I was lucky to study at home and keep my horse and riding up at the same time! I have to say that now working full time is just as tricky with having horses and more so in winter time but it's part of me and I don't think my work ethic would be as high if I didn't have that down time!
Way too hard on yourself, I loved this video as I love all your others! I am so excited the event season is upon us, I can't wait to watch all your upcoming ones! I'd totally watch a part 2 :)
I don’t know why you said it was rubbish on your IG story, I’m only 3:46 in and I find it hilarious!!!!! Your comments are amazing!! And wow, Hobbit is a super mom, jumping along side you and your horse and all!!! And your first jacket, I wonder, isn’t it the same one Becky bought at the sales 😂😂😂😂
My 10yr old son and I are loving your channel and would definitely like to see a part 2 from Uni days to current day. I went to John Moores University in Liverpool many moons ago so it's nice to hear about the city again 😁 xx
I’m allergic to horses too. And I’m the only one who rides horses ‘professionally’ in my school and when I tell people I’m allergic to them the don’t believe me haha but I put up with it because the only way helping my allergies is to get one needle a week for 6 months and the needles are massive!
Lilly Eventing omg same, every time I'm with my horse and haven't took anything for my allergies i honesty feel like death, one time my eyes were watering and my instructor stopped the lesson i was in to make sure i was ok (she thought i hurt myself lol) i told her i was fine and i was just allergic to horses she was honestly shocked! 😂😂
Lucy Connelly Yeah I get a runny nose and my eyes water so bad! And it’s so annoying some days I’m fine and others I can’t stand near a horse without sneezing
Good god you had me LAUGHING through this whole thing! Your sense of humor is incredible. Thanks for sharing your journey with us - you clearly appreciate the opportunities you've had, and the horses you've loved, and remained humble even as you've truly gotten excellent!
In my experience, it's always the horse/pony that's passed over, or deemed 'no good' by others, that end up being amazing. I'm also convinced that horses teach us way more, than we could ever hope to teach them
Loved it! More PLEASE! I spent a lifetime eventing and teaching. Sadly, circumstances took me away from my lovely horses, but now I get to experience them through you. Thank you so much.
This was so entertaining, I loved it. So many riders start out as kids, and they are the lucky ones...able to do what they love from an early age. Your commentary is perfect. It's great that you thanked your parents.
What a great video, must have been a lot of work to put this together... do more !!! I am allergic to animals and have asthma, tortured doctors and several hospital visits because I did too much, but would not have changed it for the world.. this made me sentimental and showed my daughter who is almost 13 and rides !!! What wonderful memories... It is hard to sell on horses you train, but I try to think of it as making their life better and appreciating the time and things I did with each. You are very blessed to have had all that opportunity and a mum that still is by your side and to be so young and having so much more in store !!! I think I remember a video about being in Badminton and falling off and this year you were hoping to get to go again... kinda funny how things work out and are out of our control... take heart things always work out for the best even if it doesn’t feel like it at the time... you’re an inspiration too many, keep on keeping it real... also the price of a horse is not the important thing... my best horse was only $500 thoroughbred of the track with a little bowed tendon, it gave us time on the ground which I think cemented our relationship and our ability to go as far as we did... luv from over the pond...
loved the video just so lovely to see all your horses and how you have grown into a very sensitive and caring rider who's love for her horses shines through in all the pictures . Can't wait for the full version xx
I’m out-growing my pony Santie,But I don’t want to let her go as she suffers from EMS and prone to laminitis so my mom wants her to go somewhere where they know of her difficulties and problems,She’s a really energetic and a fantastic jumper so I still have a while till we get rid of her of put her on line she’s 14 years old and I’m so glad we have her.
Your sarcasm is killing me and I am only 5 minutes in! You are amazing and should be SO HAPPY with this video, despite being poorly and also deciding to end it sooner than initially anticipated. WE LOVE YOU MEG!
There is something about your videos and your voice that I could listen to all day ! I love your style and your horse and you just seem like a genuinely nice person and I live that about you 💜. This video is amazing I don’t know why you were so hard on yourself and also there is NO. SUCH. THING. AS. TOO. LONG ! Especially when it comes to your vlogs 💜🌟💖
Beautiful!! I'm the same and had allergies with ponies starting riding at 8 yrs old. Rode professionally for 25 yrs and had 20 yrs off. Now I'm a return rider last 2 yrs and still allergies...sneezing, itching when horses' shed their coat...LOL.. I am in my Happy Place now!! I found it heart breaking to stop riding for so long but remember you always find or never forget those special pony's or horses' that grabbed your Heart!
Your story is really good funny and entertaining I hope you don't stop doing RUclips for years to come cause your RUclips channel is really really good love your story❤️
I could’ve watched this for hours. This was such a happy and calming video! I would love to see a video on a rundown of how you retrained the off the track horse!
not watching this for the 3rd time.... ;))) you are such an insparation- as well as being such an incredible rider you seem just like such a lovely person xx
That was such an amazing story and it’s so nice to relate to someone and know that I am not the only younger rider to be bringing on younger horses , I love getter cheap unhandled youngsters and bringing them on . I love your vids xxx
Adored the video, not just really interesting to see how others got into horses, then the how or why they fell in love one discipline in particular, but love the dry sense of humor LOL. So unsurprisingly, I vote YES please! to the next instalment of 'Ponies of Meg's life' ;)
Loved this !! An updated version would be awesome too....there’s no such thing as ‘too long’ when it comes to your vlogs ! Thanks so much for taking the time to do this one 👏🏻🥰❤️
How fun was that!!! I loved it and not too long at all. You really have lead a charmed life. I really enjoy watching your horsey adventures. I'm retired now and no longer able to ride because of health issues. I still have some ponies, donkeys, and minis as well as several pet pigs. I've never been able to sell the animals. Too much by way of worries in doing that. Watching your adventures though with your Mummy is so nice. Makes me feel young again! You seem like a very girl and your Mom is an angel. Love you all from sunny California! Happy trails girls! Be safe and remember to leave a seat for me!
Oh I throughly enjoyed your video!! And you haven't changed any nor has your dear mother!! Yes to making another video.. Brings me back to my youthful days.. And jolly good luck!!
Please do a second part to this Meg! The way you were talking about this on Instagram I was expecting it to be really bad but it was unreal and I really enjoyed it 💖
Just coming upon this video, 2 years late, but I loved hearing/seeing your journey. Nothing like mine what so ever. I'm very envious. It's almost exclusively, Thoroughbred and OTTB where I live, Mid-Atlantic states US. I love the look and feel of the pony types you've shared so much of your life with. Hey, I'm only 53. I guess there's still time. Best of luck to you in future endeavors.
I’m sure I’m not the only one who enjoyed this style of video! Really well put together and lovely story Meg (my little girl Maddie loved it too, she’s just starting out on her horse riding journey and loves watching your videos with me!) so sad to hear you had to sell Hazey on, she definitely looked like she had a bit of Bear in her (both in looks and the way she jumped!) we’re looking forward to part 2 of you make one!!
This video is so cute and awesome. I’ve never watched anything like this but I just watched it all! It’s so awesome how many gorgeous horses you’ve had
I can't imagine going through so many horses so early on! I got my first horse when I was 10 and he was 3 (bit of a immature decision I'll admit, but it worked out in the end--thank God), he was horribly started, and I quickly realized I didn't know quite as much as I had been led to believe haha. He was 14.2 when I got him, and now he's 15.1, 9 years old......AND STILL GROWING i don't even know how that's possible, but I guess someone slipped Miracle Grow into his feed. I haven't added any horses since, which is fine by me because he's enough work as it is. It must have been so cool to have ridden and worked with so many different horses at such a young age!
Loved it! Not boring at all! What an amazing childhood you had ❤️. Also, was your mum horsey before she had you? Be interested to hear her riding story (if she has one!) or what it was like being mum through the same time period :)
This was amazing! I'm currently 15 and producing my first horse, A 4 year old 16'4 warmblood gelding who is sooo cheeky! I love seeing that other people do this and it works out. Gives me hope for Fred and I :)
Meg - I know you said you didn’t think this would be very good on your stories. But I love it. You’re hilarious and I’m in a bit of a temporary low patch too. So this was just what I needed. 😂♥️
So fun to watch you as a child back then.All your horses were so beautiful and you can clearly see your progress as your experience continued. Thanks for Sharing and enjoy💕
Loved watching this. You really were blessed with your parents. I dreamed and was desperate for a pony. My parents were not horses. Could not afford lessons. I rode from 7, but self taught.!! My best friend had her own ponies aged 13 and shared them with me.I then used to work for rides. For a lady who owned 12 new forest ponies. I worked Sat/ sun. For one hack. Left hone aged 16. As i did not get on with my dad.!! Worked ever since. Did nurses training. But did not finish. I met my now hubby aged 16. We moved in together aged 20. I bought my first horse aged 21. 2 year old beautiful palomino welsh cross. Backed him myself. He was so easy. Such a lovely horse. Sadly i only had my beautiful boy for 3 years. Then got preggie. Could not afford to keep him. So sold to a friend. I never stopped riding from 7 till 63. Loaned, rode every type of horse. Hacking. Jumping. Still no lessons!! Then i got critically ill with sepsis. Nearly died 9 years ago. Through negligence!! I have never been well since. I now have cfs/ ME. Was bed bound for a year. But my goal was to get well enough to ride again. Which i did. You really are so very lucky to have had your mum. Money and your own yard. My dream. But wasen't to be. I am just gratefull i am alive. Have my amazing hubby, children and grandchildren. My world. I will always love and try and ride. Despite no energy..Just being around horses is utter therapy. I was fearless. If i had the life you had. Life would have turned out very different for me.Missed out on pony club and lessons😭😭 Very few people had transport in the 70's. You just hacked to the local show and back. The equine world has changed so much. Cost's soo much. Most riders have transport. I love watching your vidio's. You and your ponies are fab...make me laugh...really enjoy your channel. Xxx You lucky girl.xx
Thank you for sharing your story! It’s helpful for those of us who haven’t started yet and have a hard time picturing their future with horses. Please post another video with more details on how you train and sell horses for a profit.
Oh my god just found this - lone of my favourite videos I laughed out loud at the Dads jacket comment!! Cute ponies ! You were still pretty stylie back then!!
Absolutley loved this video. Been subscribed for a bit and really enjoy watching. This shared story filled in the blanks. Thank you. Keep it up....everything. ps hoping things weren't too terrible for you, family &the ponies during the terrible storm.
I have seen this once before...... But this is what made you that brilliant rider you are today!!! ❤❤ Having to adapt to different types of ponies all the time!!! I grew up doing kind of the same thing..... but we never owned any of the horses and ponies I rode. I was kindly lent all of them! ❤❤ I didn't own one till I was 36...... 😅😅
Love this vlog. What an amazing rider you are! I would love to see a selection of more recent events/horses. I love bear, so pleased to hear she is staying with you!
It was fine, and also like a reminder similar to when you start a new season of a favourite series. I didn't get board at all.. didn't even make me fall asleep and I'm in bed. Some very beautiful horses you've had.
This video was great! I loved the humour and you told all the details very well. Don’t be so hard on yourself! I’d love to know more about Hobbit as well, she’s the best horse mum ever!!
Meg, How on earth can you possibly Imagine that people would be bored watching this video, I have enjoyed every single minute of it .. I know it almost at the end, but don’t stop because it is a lovely look into your exciting life. Jane🐎🐴😎👍🧑🏻🦰
You look so old school English is your competition getup. Its the exact imagine I have in my head when people say "English Riding" Some of the earlier shots are also just so English, I am dying of laughter!!!! Great video though!!!
Do you realise how lucky you are? I actually started crying while watching this because I don’t get these opportunities like you do. I don’t even have a ménage so it’s very difficult for me to do anything. Also my family isn’t the richest so frequent competitions aren’t a thing either. Right now I have a 4 year old, quite green, cob but we do like to jump logs on our hacks so that is our jumping training for now. We do have wings and poles but we have to set them up in the field where the ground is uneven. You have amazing opportunities and a beautiful yard X
You're lucky you have a horse at all!! Some kids don't get that until adulthood where they have to pay for it themselves. Your comment is honestly the brattiest thing I've heard in my life.
@@jesswoods7180 No, Love, I actually think you should and actually step back and realise how lucky you are. Most kids don't get a pony until adulthood where they have to pay for it themselves or are still on half dead lesson horses.
Im allergic to horses and have been for years, although regular barn visits, grooming and constantly being around horses has helped me build up an immunity, and by 2021 my allergy should have completely cleared up. x
Hey! I kept my boy at the livery yard at the end of the track behind Beaulieu Road Sale Yard. Great riding country, hence not a lot of schooling got done, just disappearing of across the Forest for hours. Glorious times! Loved all of this. Please please do a part 2😁😁
Love all your videos and Instagram account you have me in stitches! You don’t need to justify about being privileged etc it seems you have worked your absolute ass off and you inspire me to put more work in to my horse! Would definitely love another one of these videos from when you went to uni 😊

ok but you're literally living my dream life and i'm so jealous
Omg same
Same
Omg right?! I wish I could train and ride so many horses!
Haha me too
she’s living everyone’s dream
Yessss please do another video for the years during and after uni. I loved this one!
You’re so lucky to have had so many horses...
I don’t even have a horse 🥲

@@rararhaha5647 nice! Is it your first time?
@@los210 no I’ve ridden for 4 years xx
To be fair those fences are actually huge for a six year old 😂
Six year olds are actually quite mature so they can actually jump pretty tall fences 4 and 5 year olds although have some restrictions
When I was six all I did was fell off 🤣
ohhhhh you were talking about meg
Maddy Hefkin haha yes 😂
Louise Showjumping haha
I really enjoyed that, it was nice to see how you got into horses. I would say to anyone out there dreaming the same of life buying cheap horses it’s worthwhile remembering the actual cost of the animal might be cheaper but all the care/maintenance/equipment/stabling/tuition/vet bills/ etc is the cost killer. I had three horses when dinosaurs roamed the earth and it was expensive even with my own horse property. Just keep it in mind. Bearing this though the bond you have with MUm in participating in your dream is priceless. The horsey life has to have been best investment your parents ever made.
Some of these horses i'd never be selling, they look incredible! Juggling uni and horses is so difficult though! I was lucky to study at home and keep my horse and riding up at the same time! I have to say that now working full time is just as tricky with having horses and more so in winter time but it's part of me and I don't think my work ethic would be as high if I didn't have that down time!
She had to sell them due to money
@@danatannw8599 True, its the only way one is able to afford getting new horses to ride on and compete ect. Unless of course you are a millionaire.
Loved it, but I was so looking forward to hear you talk about bear, so a part two would be ace! Xx
Way too hard on yourself, I loved this video as I love all your others! I am so excited the event season is upon us, I can't wait to watch all your upcoming ones! I'd totally watch a part 2 :)
Boring? No way! Fun to see your riding and love of ponies from a young age. Keep it going Megan, your vlogs are a credit to you.
I don’t know why you said it was rubbish on your IG story, I’m only 3:46 in and I find it hilarious!!!!! Your comments are amazing!! And wow, Hobbit is a super mom, jumping along side you and your horse and all!!! And your first jacket, I wonder, isn’t it the same one Becky bought at the sales 😂😂😂😂
15 year old here and haven’t even had a jumping lesson yet😅
Task the leap - literally jumping is fun even the falls (great stories in the end)
@@Jasmine.Philip hinestly i like the breeze when you fall off.

Not all humans are riders...... 😶
Bro I’m 14 I’ve been riding 7 years and I still haven’t jumped over 1.10m 😂
My 10yr old son and I are loving your channel and would definitely like to see a part 2 from Uni days to current day. I went to John Moores University in Liverpool many moons ago so it's nice to hear about the city again 😁 xx

My best friend had her own ponies aged 13 and shared them with me.I then used to work for rides. For a lady who owned 12 new forest ponies. I worked Sat/ sun. For one hack. Left hone aged 16. As i did not get on with my dad.!! Worked ever since. Did nurses training. But did not finish. I met my now hubby aged 16. We moved in together aged 20. I bought my first horse aged 21. 2 year old beautiful palomino welsh cross. Backed him myself. He was so easy. Such a lovely horse. Sadly i only had my beautiful boy for 3 years. Then got preggie. Could not afford to keep him. So sold to a friend. I never stopped riding from 7 till 63. Loaned, rode every type of horse. Hacking. Jumping. Still no lessons!! Then i got critically ill with sepsis. Nearly died 9 years ago. Through negligence!! I have never been well since. I now have cfs/ ME. Was bed bound for a year. But my goal was to get well enough to ride again. Which i did.
You really are so very lucky to have had your mum. Money and your own yard. My dream. But wasen't to be. I am just gratefull i am alive. Have my amazing hubby, children and grandchildren. My world. I will always love and try and ride. Despite no energy..Just being around horses is utter therapy. I was fearless. If i had the life you had. Life would have turned out very different for me.Missed out on pony club and lessons😭😭 Very few people had transport in the 70's. You just hacked to the local show and back. The equine world has changed so much. Cost's soo much. Most riders have transport. I love watching your vidio's. You and your ponies are fab...make me laugh...really enjoy your channel. Xxx You lucky girl.xx
Loved it!
Makes me wish I had more pics and videos of the horses and ponies I've ridden over the years 🐎❤️
Part two please !! Ah I really enjoyed that !! Great memories x
I have really loved this little walk down memory lane! Thank you for sharing!!
You are so lucky! You have had so many amazing horses!
I never saw this before. I’m so happy I found your story as well as your moms. U all r amazing.
Thank you for sharing your story! It’s helpful for those of us who haven’t started yet and have a hard time picturing their future with horses. Please post another video with more details on how you train and sell horses for a profit.
Oh my god just found this - lone of my favourite videos I laughed out loud at the Dads jacket comment!! Cute ponies ! You were still pretty stylie back then!!
Absolutley loved this video. Been subscribed for a bit and really enjoy watching. This shared story filled in the blanks. Thank you. Keep it up....everything. ps hoping things weren't too terrible for you, family &the ponies during the terrible storm.
Please do the updated version it’s soo interesting!! Love you 😘
I have seen this once before...... But this is what made you that brilliant rider you are today!!! ❤❤ Having to adapt to different types of ponies all the time!!! I grew up doing kind of the same thing..... but we never owned any of the horses and ponies I rode. I was kindly lent all of them! ❤❤ I didn't own one till I was 36...... 😅😅
Love this vlog. What an amazing rider you are! I would love to see a selection of more recent events/horses. I love bear, so pleased to hear she is staying with you!
It was fine, and also like a reminder similar to when you start a new season of a favourite series. I didn't get board at all.. didn't even make me fall asleep and I'm in bed. Some very beautiful horses you've had.
Loved this. You could tell how much they all meant to you. 🥰
Meg, the commentary is fantastic! Cannot wait for part 2
Yes please do another video Megan, loved this one, you are a awesome rider then and know xx
This video was great! I loved the humour and you told all the details very well. Don’t be so hard on yourself! I’d love to know more about Hobbit as well, she’s the best horse mum ever!!
Meg,
How on earth can you possibly Imagine that people would be bored watching this video, I have enjoyed every single minute of it .. I know it almost at the end, but don’t stop because it is a lovely look into your exciting life. Jane🐎🐴😎👍🧑🏻🦰
Lovely story …lovely mum to be there for you and well done you for keeping going through uni that’s when so many lose the momentum. :))
you have got my dream life... iv watched all your vids and your such an amazing person!! never stop your YT videos!
You look so old school English is your competition getup. Its the exact imagine I have in my head when people say "English Riding"
Some of the earlier shots are also just so English, I am dying of laughter!!!!
Great video though!!!
Do you realise how lucky you are? I actually started crying while watching this because I don’t get these opportunities like you do. I don’t even have a ménage so it’s very difficult for me to do anything. Also my family isn’t the richest so frequent competitions aren’t a thing either. Right now I have a 4 year old, quite green, cob but we do like to jump logs on our hacks so that is our jumping training for now. We do have wings and poles but we have to set them up in the field where the ground is uneven. You have amazing opportunities and a beautiful yard X
You're lucky you have a horse at all!! Some kids don't get that until adulthood where they have to pay for it themselves. Your comment is honestly the brattiest thing I've heard in my life.
@@jesswoods7180 No, Love, I actually think you should and actually step back and realise how lucky you are. Most kids don't get a pony until adulthood where they have to pay for it themselves or are still on half dead lesson horses.
@@CoraVocaloidUser maybe. But Meg is very lucky with her opportunities.
That was brilliant to watch and definitely do a more recent update please as I want to know more about the horses during university including Bear.
Im allergic to horses and have been for years, although regular barn visits, grooming and constantly being around horses has helped me build up an immunity, and by 2021 my allergy should have completely cleared up. x
Loved the video, as per usual great editing 😍
Yesssssss would love a part 2 😍😍😍😍😍
Brilliant video! Your dads jacket comment was hilarious 😂
Hey! I kept my boy at the livery yard at the end of the track behind Beaulieu Road Sale Yard. Great riding country, hence not a lot of schooling got done, just disappearing of across the Forest for hours. Glorious times! Loved all of this. Please please do a part 2😁😁
I loved this! I would very much enjoy seeing more parts as well :D
Love all your videos and Instagram account you have me in stitches! You don’t need to justify about being privileged etc it seems you have worked your absolute ass off and you inspire me to put more work in to my horse! Would definitely love another one of these videos from when you went to uni 😊
No I’m crying Those pictures of you in the angel dress are so hecking cute! I wish I was that cute when I was that age
This is the best thing I have seen it’s a cinematic masterpiece
Yesss part 2 pls!! Was dead looking forward to hearing more about Bear🤩 fab video tho was v interesting xx
