Had my car break down, Jinx went lame (she is OK now
) and today mid clip my clippers died.
Fortunately she is about 95% done so could have been worse.
Anyway thats 3 things that will do, thank you!

I shouldnt complain really, all my things that went wrong were costly (which I could well do without just now
) but fixable!

My 3 were:
- up late so an hour late for work
- handle on my hairbrush broke whilst I was using it
- computer system wouldn't let me in all morning and they had to reboot the whole thing just for me
Should have stayed in bed much longer!

My clippers broke halfway through clipping lance last week too
Why do they insist on doing that, not at the starts but part way
He really was only half done too
Thankfully friend was able to lend me hers the following day to finish off!
Hope thats the end of it for a while for you at least then!!

Always happens that way Peaches!
Kezshad, hope you had a better day today!
Fortunately I am married to an Electrical Engineer
who after a very long day at work fixed the clippers at ten o clock at night
So managed to finish.

Snap but slightly different:-
1. Clippers fail, had to finish a blanket clip on a grey with hand trimmers
2. Turned horses out after 2 days box rest due to wet conditions, one comes in with very fat tendons
thankfully she hasn't done any lasting damage.
3. After a further week of box rest/yarding the horse above, kicks my other mare under her belly, by the girth and now she's lame and sore.
p.s. I saw it happen and kicked the purpetraitor back myself - cowbag.
Not enjoying this year very much yet
