The yard where I am uses a guy called Josh (sorry, can't remember surname!) And he's lively with the horses. I can get his number for you? He might not be able to take anymore work on but I'm not sure. I'll be seeing him a week tomorrow.
I use josh too - josh Milburn he's lovely & great with horses. He travels to mine in hexham about 7am every 6 weeks. Very reliable and trustworthy. I can pm you his number if you want. There are all kinds of dodgy farriers around so be careful!!
