Farriers and Farriers wives.............

Do you have any funny stories to tell us?

Not a saucy one but.............hubby was doing a lecture for young farmers and was holding up a horse forelimb and hoof (all boiled clean of course) to show something and he was thankfully respectful of deceased horse as a little voice piped up in audience after recognising the disease asking 'is that Casper's leg?'. OH went tomato red as sadly it was. The lady had obviously given him full permission to have horses leg for demos etc. but didn't mean it wasn't a tad inappropriate that she was there!

I will think of some better ones. Our funniest stories are all boating incidents and nothing to do with farriery.

OMG !!!!!! lol.. was it a kid or the lady?
 
Not a funny one I am afraid - not a very nice one but I know a farrier who is having an affair with someone I know. I've made it perfectly clear I dont agree with this but shes a grown woman I suppose just feel sorry for his wife :(

Do lots of farriers have affairs??

HAHA you have done it now!!!! lol

I suppose the answer to this is the same as with any job or man really? but i suppose the risk is slightly higher than working in an office with loads of women because you have the house and a bed handy!! or haybarn... or anvil :D

Actually I would say the office is a higher probability as you are constantly together. I have met a number of boyfriends through working with them (and note - boyfriends, not affairs!)
 
Similar to the limb one, we put down someones dearly beloved cat, we kept him in the surgery for a day while she debated on if she wanted him back or to go off for cremation, she phoned us up at 6pm and said she was going to have him cremated, so we popped him in the freezer out the back, first thing in the morning she phoned up and left a message with reception to say she would be at 9am to pick him up as she was going to bury him afterall!.... we got the message at 8.45!!
