A challenge...on the scroungePony - about 11hh - brillaint driving pony
I am moving yards and lose accesss to the ATV. Getting pony enough exerciise has always been tough. So..2+2=4 and I'm thinking that if I can get an old set of shafts or a pony cart that is no longer loved or wanted - then I can make that into a pony powered dray cart for cleaning the paddocks and carrying bales around. Pony exercised, and I have a carbon friendly replacement ATV!
So does anyone in reasonable travellign distance have an old set of shafts, or an old unloved pony gig that I can cannibalise for this purpose?
There is a company makes pony drays - but they are £600+ so not an option at the moment!

I might be heading down that way around January doris - so I'll keep that in mind.
But something in Scotland would be better (and free would be even better still )
