I'll start with ...
Always insert contact lenses prior to cleaning teeth to avoid toothpaste residue transference to lenses. In the event this happens, immediate action is required: open mouth and yell as loud as possible whilst dancing on the spot.

| I would also recommend inserting or removing contact lenses before applying Ralgex/Deep Heat to yourself otherwise Pop's 'immediate action' will be both immediate and involuntary... |

And today's tip; don't believe the delivery company about calling you the day before to give you notice and to arrange a time, believe that he will not call at all and dump your stuff 200 yards up the road in someones drive and scarper. If it feels like you have just moved a tonne of bags, you did, especially as the order was for a tonne.
It causes a malfunction of the arms and legs the next day.
Ouch again |

| Never confuse the bottle of baby oil with the bottle of baby shampoo - it takes days to get the baby oil out of your hair and it is not a good look!!! (Particularly when you have applied more because you couldn't get the first dose to lather ) |

| I learnt one tonight, always make sure when poulticing a youngster on your own to make sure you have plenty of spare poultice and hot water so that when the first and second ones get dropped on the floor when youngster jumps about you have another one , by choice it is always better to have a spare pair of hands and works out much cheaper in the long run |

Don't dislocate and fracture a shoulder (or arm, leg, etc) without making sure that you have lots of people just dying to help with your horses. If you must do it, make sure it is in the summer when you don't need to bring the horses in. And a toy boy would be useful in case your husband/partner is away due to work commitments so you really are on your own.
It is handy to have a friendly octopus when poulticing a youngster.

| Barbara, do you have to dislocate and fracture a shoulder to have a toy boy? Do you think it would OK to get one anyway? How much do they cost? How do you train them? What if they have acne? Would you just treat that like mud fever? |

| Never ever trust a haynet. They may look innocent enough just sitting quietly on the floor. They are not innocent. They are gutter snipes crossed with snakes. They are not slumbering, they are awaiting their moment to bring you to the ground; and they do know where the mud is. |
