and it was finally time to bring in the professionals, to get the job done properly.... time to bring in the very experienced Victor SF model and her son to get in and get rid of some of that grass in the house paddock. Mind you we are nearly at the point of bringing in the cavalry, and I mean the serious professionals to get the grass into some sort of order. You want some serious mowing done? Bring in Trousers and Vera. lol
Today has been a very hectic day. We have had Adam over to do some trimming of horses hooves (Oscar, Hava, Moofa, Joey, Sunny and Gracie) and it took most of the morning. Iam sure that it was the hotest day ever today. I have no idea what attracts Adam to the farriering profession, I mean it would have be a very hot and demanding job. You cant wear shorts, you need sturdy shoes... every time Adam has finished with our lot, the sweat is pouring off him and his face is red (not that it is a reflection on our horses, lol) ....still Iam glad that we have found him as he is a great farrier, very good with the horses and a nice bloke as well. (Not like some of the prima donna's that we have come across since being up here at Massie Lodge).
Charlie arrived home today after 6 weeks with Paul Moody... and he has arrived back a very cheeky boy indeed. Its good to see him again. 6-8 weeks in the paddock and then its off to Wadham Park for Charlie boy.
Chris is back to Massie Lodge on Friday to consult on young Billy's foot which is a little turned out.
Sod of The Week
Definitely goes to Queensland Racing and the customer service representative who I spoke to there about QTIS registrations AAAAAAArghh!!!! to say that after I hung up I felt very frustrated and angry would be an understatement.
Well, time for me to sign off as I fear that we are about to have a thunderstorm and yes, you guessed it another blackout. Lucky us!
Hoorooo until then.

G'day
Came across your blog, and really pleased to see you are located close to my place of birth - Toowoomba.
I'm now living in the USA, hope to return home sometime in the future.
You mentioned blackouts - how come? Surely Ergon (or whatever they call themselves now) has the grid sorted out by now? Maybe you mean because of the storms.
I'll come back and check your postings out from time to time.
Cheers!
Kim
