    Good luck with getting it refitted. Does she need shoes? I've tried keeping mine barefoot, but, remedial shoeing and roadwork means that didn't work for us. There is lots of helpful stuff on the barefoot forums and one of mine was barefoot for ages which was quite a saving!
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Hi Watty. She does need shoes as she has a lot of road work.

    She also needs them on each corner as she has a looooong back.

    Ah right. I can get away with fronts only on my two and may try FoggyFellPony barefoot again shortly.

    I wouldn't consider it a done deal until the removal van is outside. Where there are estate agents, anything can happen.
