It was very hot all day we kicked of putting a pair of Ground Control shoes on a lami mare next stop was the nice part of the day done 8conamaras beside the sea lovely and quiet had 3 cobs to do then finished with 2 trims
Went smooth. 4 all around with new shoes. Handmade fronts on one of them and a lateral extension hind on one.
Hot... Set on a 4 year old cob that had never had shoes on. Change t shirt Set on a pony - hand made cos I don't carry stock that small. Change shirt trim thoroughbred Change shirt Pair on a cob Change shirt Set on a cob - bar shoe on one of the hinds cos he tore out his lateral wall in the trailer Rehydrate:
Gary you sound like me...the minute I bend over I start sweating no matter the weather. I have found that "golf" shirts made of polyester dry relatively quickly, allow air movement, and come clean in the wash!
Hot in Eire and England in May! Must be global warming. Memorial Day here so only trimmed an Arab, a Paso colt and shod another Arab all round. Nice and cool today 88f much nicer than Saturday and 101f plus the humidity. Now that's hot. Correct me if I am wrong a Cob is a 14-16h heavy style horse which we call a Gypsy Vanner here in the states which sell for obscene amounts of money here. Which always tickles me when I think of all the ones tethered in yards on council estates in Dublin.
There was a fella here at Equifest selling vanners that hadn't even been born yet for $15,000. Idiots.
Ever noticed if its something ya not agree with or understand everyone involved with it seems to be idiots ..smart ass ..or dumb.. your the only person I have even seen get blocked off a site for telling the owner whom you have never meet he was a snob..stuck up ..and spoiled ...and you came to that conclusion solely on the fact he rode English... Lol.. you don't or havent been out much is my quess.. but hey Steve was needing posters so bad he let ya back in...what happen I see you got tired of reading your own 99 post a day about nothing...
As ususal, you state an opinion based on assumptions, and completely ignore the facts. Just like when you jumped in Karen's shit on the soring page. If you had simply been able to completely read and understand what was plainly before you, there would be no misunderstanding.
I did not think I was jumping in karens shit..I think very highly of her ..she has a ton of class ..along with that she has a very soft spot for horses ...and the main stream media I feel has Karen a tad snowed on that 100% of bltwh have been sored.. and I would like for her and others to know don't hold what you see against others because I assure you that not all are like that...but just that we are clear..Mr b said the band went to the hoof..that's wrong it don't and never has.. but please feel free to tell us what all you know about it...hell I swear I think you just own horses not really shoe them..if you do it has to be weekends for beer money because you seem to know very little about it... Now the fact still is you reference anyone buying a 15k baby must be an idiot ...did I see that wrong...let me assure you ..even though a penny to must look as big as a wagon wheel and a dollar as big as a saddle blanket ...there are some out there that has 15k to spend how ever they decide due to they have earned it..and that my friend makes them anything but an idiot
You really need to find a ten year old to teach you to read and comprehend. I think paying that kinda money for an unborn foal just because that breed is he latest fad is stupid. Look at what happened with minis. And arabs. Llamas. Ostriches. Emus. People payed through the nose to buy into a fad and went broke.
Damn I had it rough compared to all of y'all!! I spent the day on my boat with my son, neice and her two kids!! No horses today, family time...)
