I was thinking it may be nice to have a THANK YOU, PRIASE THREAD which “sows together” the nice experiences – kind things people have done for each other.
I feel in a privileged position, I have been overwhelmed at times by the kindness of people I have meet at shows and really look forward to seeing them each season. I have had good dealings with sellers and have purchased wonderful ponies – so I feel we should have a thread which reflects this as there are many good social interaction happening out there – even judges giving good tips and support after shows. If a thread like this already exists, sorry for wasting time, but I feel I manage to meet wonderful people 96% of the time we go showing and I feel that needs shouting out about.
Even on Horse Gossip I have managed to meet nice people and I know others are getting support via PMs.

What a great idea!!!!!
It's very easy for people to spend a lot of time moaning - often totally justified - but wouldn't it be great to be able to be positive and say "nice" things as well!!!
My "nice" thing today - horsemad1 - your are my new friend and look forward to meeting you and your boys and cheering like mad at the Puk Champs at Towerlands!!!!!!!

THANK you for that comment - shall give you a karma. I too look forward to meeting you, & family (two and 4 legged) very soon.
My reflective moment today was to go on the tracing threads and to see if I can help any of the postings.

My nice moment and thank you goes to someone who isnt on HG person, however, recently she has been really nice to me and has become a good friend, also she always offers to help me with my ponies even thou ahe has her own horses to deal with, she has listened to me moaning and groaning about all sorts and when I was poorly she always checks up on me to make sure I was ok.

It is so pleasing to hear that others are also getting great priceless support out there. I am sure it goes without saying that you've been letting the person know how much you value their friendship. Thanks for sharing this with me - it's put a smile on my face - I'm pleased I came to this thread NOW, because people like you and Mizzy have confirmed my hopes and it leaves me postive enough to read other threads which may not be so nice. I am also sure that now that person and you have a good rapport, you in return support her! So keep you the excellent interaction and I hope you make more genuine friendship in the horse arena in the future.

I shall give you norman1 and Mizzy karmas shortly

Thanks Horsemad1. I did buy my friend a big drink on friday evening and personally thanked her her listening to my troubles, and also said I am always there to return the favour. I always think that if you are able to help someone out they are likely to help you.

I think the majority of horse gossipers should be given praise - i am relatively new on the site and I have been warmly welcomed. I have been pm'd with messages of condolences when my dog died, have made friends through different posts, and even managed to get my new horsey and new rides through here.
So I would like to take this opportunity to say thankyou to Horse Gossipers! ;D

Starrider NLI - I know what you mean about the horsegossipers - I recently joined and can say I have had a few really warm pm's and have struck up a rapport with one person and hope to meet her family at a show in the not so distant future. chatting to others on their threads has also been enjoyable - I really like this site.
Hottoddy - purchasing something over the phone/in person is always made that little bit nicer when the person on the other end of the phone/or serving you humanises the call/interaction when dealing with your request - a friend told me she too had a good experience of Ponies on Parade - so well done to them, they certainly have GOOD staff.
THANKS for sharing your positive experience - sad we no longer have karma - as I really liked giving them out.
