Whiskey Tango Foxtrot asked:
I was wondering how much it would cost yearly to maintain a horse. I would like to buy one, eventually, to ride. I would have to board it somewhere as I don’t live anyplace where I could keep a horse on my property. Roughly, what are the common expenses in a year that I would have to contend with?

Karen Waller asked:
Wales has got so much to offer its visitors. The country, which is part of the UK, has some lovely coastlines and countryside to explore and a wealth of attractions to see.
It’s ideal for a family holiday destination and there are plenty of self-catering properties here, too, so you can enjoy a holiday property rental here, whatever your taste or budget.
Cardiff, the capital of Wales, is a good place to begin. While you are in the city, try to visit Cardiff Castle and be sure to take a guided tour of the building, which will provide a fascinating insight into this amazing castle. Not surprisingly, it is a popular visitor attraction in Cardiff.
One great way of seeing the city’s sights is by taking an open-top bus tour. You can hop-on and hop-off the double-decker bus, which gives you the opportunity to do even more sightseeing. While you’re in the Welsh city, you could also do a tour of the Millennium Stadium, visit the National Museum Cardiff or even take a trip to the Doctor Who Up Close Exhibition.
During your stay in Wales, it’s also worth checking out Cardiff Bay (the old Cardiff docklands), which is located just a mile from Cardiff city centre. It’s a great visitor centre with shops, restaurants and bars and a whole lot more! You can see a show at the Wales Millennium Centre, take the kids to Techniquest (a hands-on science centre), visit the Norwegian Church Arts Centre (which is a former Norwegian Sailors Church) and the Red Dragon Centre.
If you’re a sea or beach lover, you will be spoilt for choice by Wales’ amazing 750-mile coastline. Whether you’re looking for a busy seaside resort or a remote beach to get away from the hustle and bustle, you will find it in Wales.
Some beautiful coastal areas of Wales include Anglesey, Llandudno, Aberystwyth, Rhyl and Prestatyn, Cardigan Bay, Swansea and Tenby. Rather than take the car, you could choose to explore the attractive Welsh coastline - and indeed other areas of this country - on foot or by bike.
In fact, if you want an active holiday, Wales offers many sporting facilities. You can try your hand at a range of water sports, fishing, climbing, caving, horse riding and golf. The Snowdonia National Park, which covers an area of 838 square miles, is an ideal environment in which to go hiking and birdwatching. The park boasts a great variety of landscapes to enjoy, such as mountains, lakes, waterfalls, along with some lovely beaches, cliffs and coves. Within Snowdonia, there are also some great towns and villages to visit, as well as plenty of tourist attractions, historic buildings and even prehistoric sites to discover.
Wales also boasts many gorgeous parks and gardens which you can visit. The National Botanic Garden of Wales in Llanarthne, Carmarthenshire, is one fine example and is well worth a visit.
Wales is a great destination for everyone, whether you’re in need of a peaceful and relaxing break or if you want a holiday brimming with activities. What’s more, there is a great selection of self-catering accommodation here, so it’s an ideal location for a family vacation.

Lydia K Kelly asked:
Everywhere you look there are horse crazy girls flocking boarding stables and riding schools, eager to take any chance they can to be around the horses. While it is wonderful to see their eager faces around the farm, it is important to consider their safety.
Kids believe that they are invincible and indestructible. It does not matter how old or how young, it is impossible for a youngster to understand the incredible amount of danger there is around a farm.
If you take a good look around the average horse farm, you will be amazed at just how many dangers there are to those who are not aware.
One of the biggest lures for youngsters is heavy equipment. From big tractors to small ATVs, the equipment around the farm is like honey to a bee. Kids will clamber over, under and through the equipment without considering that they could get hurt. If you have a farm that may have kids around, be sure that all equipment is stored with the keys removed, and any dangerous parts covered or put away. A vehicle with keys attached is far too tempting to a little one, and unless the child is old enough to know how to drive, he should not be using the equipment.
Of course, kids are usually there for the horses. Unfortunately, not all horses are as easygoing as we would like to see. While some will stand in the crossties for hours with little girls brushing them, others would just as soon bite or kick the hand that feeds them.
It should be made clear to the kids which horses they are allowed to handle. Small kids, should be encouraged to wear a helmet whenever handling horses. Older kids may be okay on their own without a helmet, but should still be supervised whenever handling the animals.
When riding, there should always be a person on the ground, available to help in case of emergency. No-one should be riding if there is not one person on the property available who is able to drive should a trip to the hospital be necessary. Riders should only be allowed on horses that they know, unless they are supervised by an adult the first few times.
Any horses who are potentially dangerous to kids should be clearly pointed out. You should put signs on their stalls, and try to avoid turning them out with horses that the kids are likely to have to bring in from the fields.
While you would not want to discourage kids from enjoying the horses and having fun around the farm, setting up some rules and safety measures is essential. An ounce of prevention can go a long way.
Remember, even in the safest barns accidents can happen. Put together a plan for managing emergencies, and make sure that all the kids know exactly what to do if something goes wrong.
Never leave kids on the farm without at least one adult nearby for supervision. Discourage parents from randomly dropping their kids off for the day, and be sure to have all emergency numbers on hand.
Kids can be great help around the barn, but they need to be safe.
