I am fairly new to the technicalities (sp?? blonde moment...) of horse ownership, and having never had to deal with farriers further than holding horses for them and getting them cups of tea, I am slightly worried about mine!
He has let me down every single time I have arranged for him to come and shoe my horse, and has been late every single time he has actually come (I know this is not unusual for this particular breed of people!). I have had to make several appointments for each time, which really bugs me.
Last time I did not get a phone call and he did not turn up at all (I waited several hours). The first time he used the excuse that he couldn't find the yard but then I found out he shoes another horse on the same yard.
It is incredibly difficult to get hold of him (again I know not unusual).
So does 'Mr Reliable' exist? What are yours' like?
