My local tack shop has been sold by my friend and I am now trying to remain loyal to the name and keep using them...but owner is absent and the girl behind the counter, didn't know what bot flies are, what a bot fly knife looks like, what a baucher bit is, she showed me a pelham when I described it. I asked her if she had any heavy duty overreach boots and she showed me some tendon boots (patent leather too!!!!!! )
Just had a text to say my wash and REPAIR winter rugs are ready for collection - I took in four rugs, not one repair needed but insisted that they are ALL re proofed please and could she write it on the labels as one year they weren't reproofed when requested. They aren't going to be reproofed are they, and they will have stitched even the tiniest little moth hole in the binding or some such won't they?
Jaysus I hope I don't have to go to Dublin to find a decent tack shop from now on. Feeling grumpy!
