MY YARD TOUR || Erin Williams

[Applause] hello everybody and welcome back to my youtube channel so if you are new here I'd really appreciate if you could subscribe to me so today I'm gonna take you on a stable tour these questions come up quite a lot recently on tick tock and on Instagram and it's had a bit of a clean so it's looking a lot better and today I'm going to show you all so so come with me so this is that picture wall when you first come in so as you can see there's quite a lot of pictures of and most of this wall is when I was a pony rider so this was Addington CEI we won that yes that's 20 left it's a long time ago now this was the 2013 pony Europeans so then if you see me here and then this is Phoebe Peters rose who's making Rebecca Belle all of us are can very baby-faced and we were British pony champion in 2010 but doesn't say mm I wasn't quite good news so here's a little tribute to my old pony Danny Boy he did pass away a few years ago so this is just such a nice thing to remember when we walk through the door because he took me to my first Europeans and he was just a total legend and then this massive one here it's from my first ever Pony Europeans in 2010 so I was only 12 so yeah this is up because it's quite a nice reminder so I'm going to show you our tack room necks in here I mean you can see all the bridles lined up nicely we have a lot more than we use but most equestrians will have a few spares so here we got this is Sonny's bridle which was also Danny's back when hide riding ponies Sonny has such a small head that he can fit into Danny's pony rider this is some of the sashes that we weren't over the years so I always have a special love for sashes because you don't get them very often so I used to think you hadn't done well if you haven't got that this is Mike Hale cope so it does normally live in a bag but thought we'd show you this these are all the saddles so this is sonny saddle this is I think this was Billie's this is Teddy the new horses jumping saddle so not how to jumping saddle in here for a long time we have quite a few space shuttles over there that aren't used as you can tell and here this is a three row so this is mini size one so this is for blackjack the Shetland just gonna be so cute to try on him so here we've got big set of cupboards and in this cupboard this is the saddle pad cupboard so these are all our Blackheart saddle pads we've got some jumping ones some dressage we like color order here and these are all spare white ones from the competition times [Music] in this one year it's very keep their hat Spurs just bits and bobs this one doesn't need another little organized but tum got around to that just yet as you can see I have a lot of hot pink better out favorite color and I use that wrap for everything so I'm gonna do it Austrian hacks video soon where if you should have head up and I show you what I use it for so these are just some pictures again we've got picture everywhere in here and this is a badger this is before I did my first Europeans 2009 at home international so as you can see there's a lot of rosettes are put on the wall so they're not all mine somewhere my mum's because she used to compete as well but they're good rosettes over for the house on a wall there's no big ones but yes a nice collection for every year so next I'm going to show you our feed really so this is where we store all the kind of day time rugs so these are all the ones we use in the field in the stable at the minute we've not been put in so many rooks on at the minute because it's so warm but this is where they live and it's just had a nice clear out and this is as neat as it gets so we have all that bits like look pessoa lungeing except an echo side here we have like a form of medicine cabinet so all the bits and bobs you would need and then this is the feed so we have the out fry oil or chopped we have some nuts and we use tops wet also kind as well with all of the horses they all get and its basic feed so should we go meet the horses - me so this cynic yeah he's looking a bit grumpy because he's currently in the middle of a nap they will leave him to go so outside of every stable we have the horses boot bags they all have specific bag of boots so we don't mix them up they've got their nighttime feed and you can see these blue bags and we use blue bags rather than hay net because we like to encourage our horses to eat off the floor help some stretch and it's good for their back and their muscles overall oh now you've come to say hi No so this is Sonny I'm gonna do a meet the horses vlog soon so I won't go into too much detail but hopefully you recognize Sonny this is Teddy okay this is our new boy my new little show Tampa Teddy he's very very sweet he's also in the middle of a nap so in every state all we have shavings we prefer shavings - straw but that's just personal preference and we also have rubber matting so he's eaten most of his knowledge today we're gonna top him up soon but Billy's recently been rubbing his mane we think he's been getting sweet itch from the Mideast so we've just got him and you spray so if his means looking a little bit sparse that's fine so all of our stables have the choking of this way of clothes and this way and it's a lot easier because they can't let themselves out I mean Sonny manages to get out God knows how sometimes but luckily all he'll do is everyone else's dinner so obviously we don't have favorites but if we did like it would be this little guy hello this is blackjack he's our mini Shetland and he's not being with us that long but he he's the cutest little thing on the planet on you so he's actually a stallion and has ten babies ten you've been a busy boy haven't you he gets the tiniest nighttime feed because we hate for him to feel left out so the size of his little weed and he starts rearing up for it at night because he just loves his snacks he's a little chunky oh he wants his feed so now I'm gonna take you out the back and show you the whole twerker the field and I'll show you Artie and Lola who are living out at the minute so [Music] so these are our back paddocks and if they are well behaved they're allowed out here Sonny had to graduate from the turnout pen to one of these fields because he was being a naughty boy but this is no no hello she's my mum's horse and I have done some Junior competitions on her but she's living out in a minute so I don't know if you can see the top field that it's arty who is my little baby horse no absolutely in love with him but he's living out at the moment as well because it's such nice weather mostly going it once a day just just for fitness and sunny doesn't go on it because he gets a bit fresh but most of the horse is going at once we try not to do too much of this because we don't want any repetitive strain injury but it is good exercise so I'm going to show you the turnout pen now and this is where we started turning sunny out because dressage horses as we know her very highly strung but sunny could not be trusted when he went outside he would always just leap around and we just see stuff to bring him back inside so we made a turnout fan and he was such a good boy so he's graduated to the field now but it's made you baby not yuku so it's mainly just arena sand and we put a hay net up and from water in the day but none of them are really going out here at the moment because they're all being so good and eaten all the grass here we have another little paddock because they are just eating everything [Applause] [Applause] [Music] so this is Artie our baby he's about six years old and his full name is artorias he is the cutest little thing and he showing so much talent right now for dressage and show jumping so we all have to see [Music] in your mind [Music] so this is our solarium and wash box oh what a solarium is I'm going to end my life on the right down and what these are heat lamps so they're very good for the horses back so when you put them on for training to help warm up the back of the horse and the muscles and additionally it's very good to help them dry in winter when it's bit cold and it's not as easy so yeah we have the solarium up here we have the tap back here so this goes hot and cold which is lucky for the lobsters so they don't get hose down with eggs water and just like shampoos conditioners etc and all a lot of brush it is live in here so here I'll keep the sugar lumps so the horses get a glove for training and whips etc this is yet another photo wall [Music] this is posters from various European so this was a wreck so Italy this one was Poland in 2011 and then this one was France in 2012 so I have done six consecutive European so there's a few featured up there this is all the brushes for the wheelbarrows and our shaving special we do need a stock up of these soon so now hav arena [Music] simply by hey so in our arena you may have noticed the words written at the side so any dressage rider should know that these are the dressage scales of training so we have rhythm suppleness contact compulsion straightness and collection and we put these up mainly as a feature wall but also to remind me when I'm riding that these are the order of what we want and there's all together equals cadence we have mirrors in the school too and these are very helpful for when I'm training alone not with my trainer because I can assess my own position I can see how it looks and therefore make it better but in our outdoor school which I'll show you in a minute we don't have mirrors so I don't get reliant on them because anyone who's ridden with mirrors will know it is so easy to get a little bit addicted to just looking like oh how does it look so we've not put them outside for that reason so don't get reliant here is my old tap water from a competition so I'm gonna do a what's in my tack Rock of log soon so keep your eyes out for that here we have our rug dryer but at the moment but some fresh saddle pads drain obviously these are like hard to question this is just another storage facility and this has all our show stuff our older rogues things aren't as much used so so as you can see there's bits and bobs for competitions like funding and there's bikes that we used to take we have all our old winter rugs and I think this is yeah this is yeah wheels Great Britain so this has all the rugs that are not in use every day [Music] [Music] now I'm gonna take you outside and show you our outdoor school [Applause] so here we have like the everyday paddocks this is where Teddy Sonny and Billy all go out they do like get it out at the same time but they do get very very attached to one another [Applause] [Music] here we have the outdoor mounting block this is very helpful so that so I don't have to get on inside and come out I can just lead them out hop on here and then because our outdoor school [Applause] [Music] so this school is 20 by 60 so this is a complete show dressage arena we have the whiteboards up because when you go to a competition whiteboards can scare horses so we have them up so they see them every single day and don't get scared by it but our indoor you may have noticed was a bit smaller it's 20 by 40 so it is good to have two different sizes so you can practice on dancing movements and you've not got too much free space this arena is very scary for our horses because as you can see here we have all the tree line and it's full of birds they love to fly out as soon as you go in past and all the trees are like different levels so it is quite scary for them and as you can see we don't actually have any sides to this arena so when they are feeling a little bit fresh if you can feel a little bit scary but very good practice it's our little Oakley this is an amazing of glory because I can drive it I don't need my HDB license or anything and it's very nippy if we need to get the horses out so we have this just in case anything goes wrong if I want to go to for a show and this just lives here as you can see we have so thank you Endemol day so I hope you guys enjoyed this video if you have any questions anything else you'd like to see please pop it in the comment and do not forget to Like and subscribe bye guys [Music]
