SWEET FA .....Monday

[f_s_]

Just watched it again, and I say hind too! (Sorry) I also think back.

Can you get a physio or chiro out to check him? It's just that although I understand the choppier stride (that's his confirmation/breeding) but, he looks tight across his back, and it's making it difficult for him to get his legs under him (if that makes sense)

It may be that a little tweak will sort him out, no problem

 

[ldlp111]

really??

problem i get a chiro out and hes still lame im £50 and still need a vet.

 

[f_s_]

I think then, if your chiro is £50, I would go to the vet first, better that way round anyway

 

[ldlp111]

how much is your chiro?

 

[samstar]

ldlp I pay £40 per visit with my Mctimmoney

 

[ldlp111]

well i had a bowen lady out for cleo but done 3 treatments totalling over £120

 

[f_s_]

I pay £30 per horse, but I do have quite a few to do, so maybe I get a discount

 

[ldlp111]

ok anyone know of a chiro in somerset, have contacted my friend but no response yet.

 

[samstar]

mines not far from somerset border, PM me if you want

Hi all

- have just got in from loooooong day. Just going to make some supper then will catch up with you all in a bit.

Hope you have had good days!! Have seen MrsM's news - am shocked.............

 

[samstar]

Hi slinks, now you know what a loooooooooooooong day feels like

 

[ForeverBroke_]

Evening all, hope everyones okay .

Sounds like its all been a bit stressful

Huge hugs MrsM, hope that the vet is being cautious ((()))

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

Evening peeps!!

Feel a bit better now I have had some supper!!

Had a looooooooooooong day with my manager - but did extract a promise of some reward (cash!!) for all my extra work!!

then just spent the rest of the day giving him a hard time whenever possible - hee hee!!

Then had phonecall from friend who was made redundant some time ago who was having a bad day

- so called in on my way home to cheer her up which involved te inevitable glass of vino!!

*hic* but I did manage to make her laugh

and left her feeling a bit chirpier - so my work there was done!!

While ranting about how sh*t life is at the moment we did both run through both of our extensive and colourful vocabularies...........

 

[f_s_]

Evening Slinky!!!

You have had a long day at work, but profitable, which is the main thing!!!

Have a nice glass of

, here you go, and put your feet up!

It's been a stressful day, all round! Mrs M's news is quite shocking, really didn't expect that!!

She must be feeling like she needs several glasses of

after that shocker!!!

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

Its devastating isn't it?

Don't really know what to say - and as we know I'm not normally lost for words.

You and yours sound like you and yours had a good day though?

Typical that possibly the best day of the week I end up playing samaritan (not that I mind) and get home late and knackered so couldn't face riding...due to piddle down here tomorrow..........

 

[ForeverBroke_]

Its due to rain AGAIN here tomorrow

August my ...ahem .

Going to attempt to go for a nice hack in the morning with my friend from a different yard , but I think i'll duck out if the weathers naff!

 

[sea_view]

Hey all who is still about cause I have exciting news - seeing as its been a poop news day with MrsM and ldlp I thought I'd share my exciting news - you are allowed to guess!

 

[f_s_]

Yes, it's typical! I had a great day, for a change, now I feel a bit guilty!!

There seems to be an awful lot of people who have had bad news/disasters today, so it's not really right to be really happy about my day!

I just hope that they are being very pessimistic about Mrs M's Dizzy, sometimes they are over cautious, and hopefully that's the case here!!

Another glass of

??

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

Good news would be lovely

- as it just seems to be doom and gloom at the moment

- everywhere - not just on here!!

Ok I say its a job/interview!!

 

[f_s_]

You got a job??!!!!!

I hope so!

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

More wine would be lovely thankies!! We can celebrate S_V's good news!!

[f_s_]

Yeahhhhhh!!!!! Well done!!! Great news!! Fizzy

all round!!!

 

[ldlp111]

thats gd news SV.

i spoke to friend and she said chiro is about £52

so vet or chiro?

 

[sea_view]

Thanks muchly, can't believe the weight that has been lifted off my shoulders, was beginning to go into panic mode with term start only two weeks away!!!

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

Yey!!!

Well done - soooo pleased for you

!! Details please........is it a school you wanted, near by

etc etc

 

[sea_view]

Full time in a school literally 10 mins away from me - can't believe it!!!! Not sure what stage yet as the head teacher is on holiday so I will hear at he begining of next week. So delighted as I was losing sleep and getting a bit ill over it which is not really like me! So so relieved!!!!

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

ldlp - I would go for the vet first. I think as you are trying to sell/loan him you need to know exactly what you are dealing with. As you have farrier out you have ruled out abcess, corn etc so my next port of call would be vet - to be honest it may be cheaper then Chiro @ £52!! I would explain his lameness as much as you can and they will do flexion tests etc and should be able to reach an idea of what maybe causing it without doing lots of various tests that cost £££'s. I would lay off the lunging until he has seen vet - you don't want to aggravate anything. Good luck with it - hope it is nothing serious.

It must be something in the stars at the moment - S_V's news is the first bit of good news I 've heard in weeks it seems!!
