A totally pointless post but I just wanted to share my happiness :D

I had some rugs that I wanted to donate to Mountains Animal Sanctuary through my vet practice so I though I would get fatty weighed while I was there.

It was our first trip together in the lorry and Jerry was very good (apart from refusing to load on the return trip :cool: so big thanks to the two guys who helped shove him back up the ramp :o )

So yes.. we should be all set for hunting on Tuesday - bring it on :D
 
great stuff :)

I can't wait to get out in my new trailer, but I'm snowed in :( can totally understand your excitement at getting mobile :D
 
Oh so it's your fault that the white stuff made an appearance...;)

I fear it may be :( Within four hours of picking up my most beautiful, treasured posession we had six inches of snow. And it shows absolutely no sign of budging either. there is a good three inches of it left and more coming tonight :mad:

:D for goodness sake don't send off any advance entries for anything or it'll never go away!

ETA - surely you mean your second most beautiful treasured possession? you can't love a trailer more than Nitty!

I may also have had an entry in for Keysoe that may be the reason it didn't clear overnight like it normally does round here! :( :o :D

I do love it more than Nitty! I love my clippers and my trailer more than I love BH so she should consider herself lucky! :D
 
Well done B_M. I now know who your vets are too, Tim was my horse's vet for a number of years :D I followed him when he set up his own practice!

I do like Tim :) One of the other vets though the muppet might have a spavin (lame on hind legs and failed a flexion test) so I managed to get a lift and off we went to Turningdale Farm where the silly horse trotted up sound :rolleyes:

Luckily Tim thought to check his back - he had pulled his sacroiliac pratting about :o
All of the vets are really lovely :) We've had a few emergency call-outs since Jerry moved (honestly, who is allergic to bloody baby shampoo????) and I can't fault any of them.


I managed to find:
2 LW t/o (one only worn once)
2 summer sheets
1 MW stable rug
3 fleeces - one still in the bag! :o
2 head collars
1 leadrope
2 big likits
6 mini likits
1 large tubtrug and
1 bag of alfa beet for Mountains Animal Sanctuary and I've promised them the rest of Jerry's rugs when Dad replaces them over the summer :D

He's so spoilt (and I have a rug addiction :p )

That's an amazing amount of stuff! Did you see the thank you you got on their fb page?

It was years ago when I used Tim, he was at a local vet practice and then set up on his own so I and a lot of other people followed :D He was absolutely brilliant when the ginger horse fractured his splint bone, and he also held him at a couple of shows when I walked the course before :eek: :D

ETA mine is allergic to baby shampoo too, must be a ginger warmblood thing :rolleyes:

Yes, I did :D
Jerry is quite spoiled :rolleyes:
My dad doesn't help: "I'll replace Jerry's rugs when my donkey comes over" - ermmm why? so you can buy two of everything? :confused:
I think he secretly feels sorry for Jerry, who has to go out in a lilac rug :D

I'm so glad it's not just my idiot horse that's allergic to baby shampoo - that'll teach me to spend £2 on shampoo and about £100 on the bill for an after-hours emergency call out :rolleyes:
