Another rug to add to the collection & bought one for my friends grey hippo-arab too! Lovely brown fleecey affair which is a tad on the long side but will keep his shorty ginger bum warm  They really are nice rugs would have been rude to leave the store without one  |

bought a really nice quilted rug about 4 years ago it has a big flap that goes under the tummy its really cosy and it still looks new I think it was £25 so I think was a bargain. |

The fleeces measure 135cm along the back. That equates to approx 5'9" as we would measure a rug. Had one on our 15 hand gelding today and it fitted perfectly. Bought two and two saddle pads. Wish I'd bought more now. |

The rugs are *all* 135cm - measured from the withers. There was a diagram in the Lidl Offers flyer that shows this 
Getting one to send to my friend in the US for *her* Arab!

I'm sure they measure them from the withers rather than point of shoulder. Check on the website I'm sure I spotted a measurement guide for one of the rugs. |

Got a couple of fleeces as they had loads at our local (suburban) Lidl tonight - haven't unpacked them yet, but look easy enough to alter...couldn't buy the fabric for £6.99!

They only had 6ft and 6'3" rugs nothing for my 5'9" but didn't realise as worked out sizes wrong.
Michelle I agree with you never have too many rugs. BF thinks I have an obsession with buying rugs.

I got some Jod's from Aldi a few years ago I thinkt hey were about £11.00!! Best jod's I have ever had, such good thick ones and really warm in winter.
Didnt know Lidl did horsey stuff!! I know Tesco do but they seem to have gone quite expensive.

Yep - I rushed in as soon as they opened because the stuff goes so quickly round here. Got a fleece rug with leg wraps for 6.99 - little bit snug on my non arab 5'9 boy, but fine for chucking on as after bath etc. Leg wraps are nice tho'! Also got some bandages at 1.99 for 4, a lunge rein for 1.99 and some travel boots for 5.99 (I think). Not sure how much I trust the travel boots in terms of fit and level of protection, but figure at that price I can always use them in yard to make sure pony is fully used to and comfy in boots! Oh and got a saddle pad as well for 3.99 - again always useful as a spare. All in all, quite chuffed with all my stuff! |

I got a few fleeces and summer sheets. the sheets are about 6ft 6ins and yes the fleeces are 5ft9, I put one on Nabil under his stable rug tonight as its turned bitter here again and have to say it's a lovely shape, and looks very smart although a bit too much embroidary for my taste. All in all the rate he wrecks them at 6.99 (leg bandages are that on their own) they'll come in handy |
