A fair spread, but not huge. There are five and a half years between my three but now they are grown up it is as if there is no gap at all. Lovely ages.

Take the partition in trailer out and herd it in? I reckon it would work. At the Fell Pony sales they do it like that and there are always some old farmer types around to help out. At the last Fell Pony off the fells sale there were some fab posts on Faceache with old farmer/breeder types offering advice and saying they would help any inexperienced folk do it. One person went from Cornwall to Cumbria, bought, had it loaded and the advice was just don't stop driving/open box till you get home then put in field and leave for a week and it'll forget all about it.
