Goodbye isle of wight! See you in 8 weeks.

I left home at 11.00pm last night , drove 408 miles to catch the 8am (packed) ferry to shoe and trim for both my daughters.

Just a 70 mile drive to my dad's before a shower, meal and finally bed!

Absolutely knackered but a fathers work is never done lol.

A massive thank you to my Jenny who not only lent me her van but has been looking after my William this weekend ❤️

😜 Spoiling the Mrs, out for a romantic coffee
(en route to picking up shoe stock from Newhall Farrier Supplies 😬 ) to The Park Bistro in Linlithgow.
A very, very nice coffee indeed! (she approves 😮‍💨)

Who is this new farrier??? 😁🐎🧲

About my work...
Having ran a successful shoeing business on Isle of Wight, for the last 26 years, ive now returned to Biggar (where i went to high school) bringing my skill and experience. These years working with a variety of horses and ponies, has afforded me a calm and confident energy around horses of all sizes and temperaments. i am also very happy to work alongside Vets to resolve any hoof issues.
🐴🙂

About me...
I love riding my own 17hh Irish Draught, William. 14 years old, he is a hunting machine. We were, Master of the Bloodhounds on Isle of Wight for 6 years. William whipped in for Bloodhounds for 4 years and for Foxhounds for 2 years. In summer months we compete in hunter trials and The Isle of Wight Scurry for three years. Finishing 3rd in the last one.
William is a true gentleman in every way and a pure joy to own.

Would be great to be involved in more riding events now locally. I'm hoping you guys will let me know what's going on and extend me an invitation to join the fun.

Looking forward to meeting and working with you, and your hooved friends in the coming months/years.

Thank you,
Michael.
