    Drive Me Buggy 2020 Hours

    Just so you know.. I don't have my minis any more. Dottie went back to her owner and Maddy stayed as companion to my friend's horse after I moved my riding pony. Neither driving at the moment which seems a shame but hey it's 2020. The riding pony is loving her life doing western stuff with a...

    ploughing

    Oh yes I've seen Anarchy Acres on Youtube. We're using modern components designed for hand-pulled ploughs... the fabricator is making thej wooden part (ash). I don't know if it'll work. The point of using mini is that i'm thinking of gardens and allotments... square metres not acres... where...

    ploughing

    Someone's making a plough for me. I've never ploughed before! How do i learn? I guess starting on some ground that is already quite loose would be a good idea. it'll be a pair of 32" mini shetlands

    Drive Me Buggy 2020 Hours

    I forgot to mention.. i did 2 hay runs on Weds and 2 on Friday, that's about 2 hours altogether for Maddy and Dottie.. Maddy did most of the pulling, she's much more sensitve than Dottie and reacts when i try and get Dottie to step up, by pulling harder! Maddy is also stronger and fitter.

    Drive Me Buggy 2020 Hours

    We delivered 3 bales of hay. Slight kerfuffle with Dottie shying at a bus while we waited at a give-way. She pushed Maddy onto the grass verge. Maddy started eating and 2 bales fell off. Someone gave me a hand and we set off.. arrived at my friend's house with the hay.. but forgot keys! They...

    Driving Me Buggy 2019 Hours!!!

    I've already been out yesterday and today. I keep a riding pony at a friend's half a mile away. We both bought hay in the summer and all the hay at her place is gone now, so the minis are delivering hay from mine (the minis live at home). I can get 3 bales on the dray.

    Dr. Cook bitless bridle for driving?

    Lucky is going as well or better in his improvised bitless. It's just 2 rings where the bit was attached. He can graze all harnessed and hooked up, which means we can go much forther by having rest/munch breaks. Done about 20 miles so far, could probably go much futher if I had time. Thanks for...
