    Bad name for both horse owners and farriers!

    You have just said BEAUTIFULLY exactly what I feel! And yes, farriers wives probably aren't all 'angels' either...It most certainly does encompass everyone, from all walks and all professions. Sadly though, I think my own convictions will only serve to get me into trouble. Trouble it...

    Bad name for both horse owners and farriers!

    Yes I agree with you - I was raging a bit...but I get passionate about my beliefs...and you and me both will never look at farriers the same way again, let me tell you! This has been an education for me too! It shouldn't be problematic at all, but it'll never be a perfect world.

    What the Hell are holidays?! lol!...I can not believe tht farrier tried to charge you fora separate call out for attending to your lame horse - which he nailbound!...That's outrageous!...My husband wouldn'tdo that...he'd make your horse priority and want to get there asap, he'd also feel...

    Bad name for both horse owners and farriers!

    Absolutely right! ..My husband also, sort of, 'picks and chooses clients', as in, he's big on punctuality - so clients who are frequently late (and so it causes a knock-on effect for all the other clients during a working day) are very politely 'let go', but my husband will always recommend...

    Bad name for both horse owners and farriers!

    The quote you posted: Most farriers...and I know many, including my husband...MEANT that my husband is also a farrier, and nothing more than that! I simply was saying that I know many farriers and that my own husband is included in farriers I know, because he IS one...you then went on to assume...

    Bad name for both horse owners and farriers!

    Bloody UNBELIEVEABLE! My husband does NOT "come home with less than attractive comments about clients" and I DIDN'T say that! I revealed that I know more than enough farriers who DO - my old man was NOT included in that statement...I also did NOT state that MY husband wouldn't "touch a horsey...

    Bad name for both horse owners and farriers!

    I said, many times over, that it's all walks of life...and I've had to repeatedly state that, no, my husband HAS NOT "done it" to me!...It's not me it's ever happened to, thankfully, but it's happened to people (both men and women) who are personal close friends, and also relatives, of mine, and...

    Bad name for both horse owners and farriers!

    See now, here we go again, folks not fully reading my words!...Who said that I wasn't "horsey"???!!! Not me! And by the way, just so it's out there...my husband uses the word "horsey", so too do many others...there's nothing wrong with the word! It's not an insult! I thought it was ME who...

    Bad name for both horse owners and farriers!

    I agree with you...I've since read over my first posting, and can see how I've been perceived...I came on very strong, I know, but, it's a subject I do feel very strongly about...It hasn't happened to me - contrary to what people may imagine - but it has happened to my best friend, and others I...

    What a fabulous response. A wise woman, I'm thinking! I think you speak perfect sense!

    Bad name for both horse owners and farriers!

    I didn't get the impression it WAS just 'fantasy land' though! The posts gave me, a total stranger, the absolute impression that not only was the female in question saying quite clearly that no matter what, she was going to get her way with the farrier, but she was also giving the impression...
