Here we are back down the Farm Lane..... I am rather surprised this lady looks so sad. I know for a fact she just got a new pair of shoes. The mobile farrier called today and the characteristic tap tap tap rang through the office windows for a while.

Its been there for 4.2 Billion years. No one knows what it does.
