  1. Hi Michelle, We had our dogs and cats done and they were all absolutely fine, no problems with the blood tests either- they all came back with positive antibodies straight away. The only difference i noticed was that one cat became extremely more loving and had to sit with me all the time (although that's probably more to do with the fact that i've just had a baby and she was trying to get some more attention!)

  2. Hi all, Thanks for suggestions and advice- we contacted Veronica and she also quoted £2800!(although, like you say that is an individual load and we could take extra stuff) and another company also quoted £2600 so we have decided that the easiest option is to move them ourselves- they are used to the lorry,we know they travel well in it and it means we can put all their rugs, tack, feed etc (of which we have collected quite a lot over the years!) with them. (plus any extra bits from the house that need to be moved aswell) We can take them from Poole to Cherbourg for £385.00 which is only a 4 1/2 hour crossing and a student who used to lodge with me has family that live in the Mayenne and have said we can rest them there overnight (and us) for nothing  then we can have a nice steady drive down the next day!

  3. Hi I think we are going to go with the diy route, We can borrow our old lorry and go portsmouth to caen and then stable them in france overnight,as much as i would like to do it in one hit, i think 18 hours is to long. I dont think you can travel horses on the tunnel and it would be an extra 250miles!!! Mark
  4. Hi, Thanks for that, i will have a look. Yes, i've spoken to Defra and got all the export forms etc that i need. Out of interest, who did you use to move yours- i'm still open to the idea of getting a transporter to move them and save me the hassle, it probably doesn't cost much more when you take into account ferry charges, fuel, livery etc- i can then fly over and meet them there!

  5. Hi, We are moving to the Dordogne at the end of March/beginning of April and need some advice regarding moving our 2 horses.  We were planning on driving them over ourselves but as it normally takes us 17 hours in the car we would need to find somewhere to stable them overnight to give them a break. Has anyone any experience of yards in Caen or Calais that offer an overnight livery? Thanks Anj
  6. groslard you are right, i changed 15k deposit  at 1.46 in sept 07,,,,,,,,, then waited  and waited and when my deadline came in nov 07 my other 120k i had to change i got 1.38!!!!!!!!! gutted! but what the heck, its my ticket out of here, i'm not letting 8000euros make me stay in this country !! i'm out of here!
