shoes are off

he was well due anyway counting back to his last race, which i think was when he was last shod it'll be about 6 or 7 weeks.

a touch of thrush, but not a lot, i need to find where i put the bottle of brush on thrush stuff (and it'll be interesting to know if i'm physically able to apply it!)

it'll also be interesting to see how his backs grow - they were quite long in the toe by today

so we're looking forward to the changes in 6 weeks time when Lesley comes back again

in the meantime, it got colder and colder whilst he was being done and by the end i was frozen - should have had more layers on but it was warmer this morning!

and i managed to hurt my right foot whilst sitting at my desk working today - NOT clever, and the mind boggles how or what. i've a horrid feeling i twisted it wrong without noticing ... so long as it doesn't hurt more in the morning i'll be ok, but not comfortable weight bearing

  1. Monfy's feet are fixed and now yours isn't working right? What's going on here? Hope you are OK. For some reason, winter seems to inspire all kinds of little tweaks, twists, and joint injuries for no reason at all. Just take it easy until you're sure it's OK.

  2. I know just what you mean, just a wrong reach here, a misstep there and ouch. Sometimes these things are gone by the next day.

    I just use iodine (not pure, some solution you can buy at feed stores) and that seems to not only help with thrush, which Tetley is prone to but also helps toughen up his soles.
