Some of you may know that I bought a trailer a few weeks ago. I have just been practising reversing etc before I drive about my pride and joy in it.
So, on Wednesday, I didnt turn Caymen out, I just gave him a nice big groom, put his saddle etc in the car and got hitched up. He loaded no problem at all. I dont know if he had been in a trailer or not but didnt really anictipate any problems as I have loaded him into a small lorry before.
So I set off with some friends for moral support and to take pics! He was fine travelling and unloaded no problem at the other end. It was quite a short journey for my first one. I got him organised and had to get on the wrong side as he would not stand. I will forgive him as not normally an issue for him. He was very forward going as always and just as he would normally be hacking at home including getting extremely excited when I went to take him for a blast. I fell off :redcarded: I got back on and he did it again so took him for a trot uphill instead and manged to stay on!
All in all, quite pleased with how it went despite falling off. He would act like that at home too so not too concerned about that. Anyways...a few pics
