FC,
I hope all these lights on your wagon are LEDs or the alternator will melt!
Nice looking truck
I've seen the photos of the complete build and I have to say having gone around Royal International last week my wife and I would choose that Lorry over any of those that we looked at many of which were many times the price - shame I don't have the money for any of them not that it stops my daughter nagging, thank God she never saw FCs pictures DS3 TDV6 HSE - Silver with Alpaca (old one) Gone

Very kind words.... Quite happy to bring it down to meet daughter....Lol!
There will some miles put on it this month unfortunately so I hope the alternator doesn't go.....nightmare thought! We're off to Pony Club Championships in Cholmondeley on the Friday 19th back home to Kent on the Sunday quick turnaround and back up to Lincolnshire for the Monday for another couple of days...
So think twice before you put your little one on that donkey on the beach...you never know where it will end up.....
No, I'm afraid not, except for these two on the wall:

Stew,
2010 D4 gone but I really loved it
Went back to Merc - C350 AMG
Endymion Wrangler. 6 years old, 14.1hh, New Forest x Appaloosa. He's a funny looking chap, but quite pretty really. Poppy's bought him to bring on as her little project.
Giving each other the once over:

It's a bit of a left field entry for us.....her main horse had a bit of a problem with his neck at the beginning of the year so she had to last minute replace him with the new green horse.... Lovely but very wet behind the ears and one that will be ready in probably another year or so .... She entered the regionals purely to get him used to being out and about and amazingly came second on him!
Great and fantastic news but we are now taking a very green horse to Champs so I don't hold out much hope! Who knows??
Three days in a field....super.....

Three years back Pop stepped in for someone in the SJ riding Mika, who was just 5 at the time. She too then came second (out of 141) and qualified for the champs! That ended in us taking both Mika and Archie up together.
Unfortunately, this year we had to pull out of the Area eventing - it was hosted by our own PC at Nunney but, while we like a challenging XC course, it was overdone with previous CIC** jumps included at only a reduced height. Mika is still relatively inexperienced so Poppy just wasn't comfortable with it. Not nice having to pull out like that, but the results showed it to be the correct decision with over 60% having faults and about 1/3 eliminated or retiring.
