    They will have peg-legs and parrots and spill rum on it for sure...gahhhhhhh. Thanks Peggy, you gave me a giggle. DH just emailed the importer about something else but asked after my cart for me while he was at it, awaiting a response, hopefully the answer is 'Sydney', rather than 'Pirate...

    Verbal commands for driving

    ahh yes. Same here. Gave it a red-hot try when long-reining but 75% of the time would get my lefts and rights mixed up and figured I may just leave that well alone and do a generic 'come/get around' for a smaller turn in either direction

    So long as pirates don't take it when it is enroute to me all should be good. My current cart as NO suspension at all so I am sure this my new cart will feel like driving on clouds lined with marshmellows in comparison ;)

    SO true. I have managed to keep my patience so far, but it is all over for me now. I keep looking at photos of it, obsessing over it and trying to imagine where on the high seas it is - goodness, I have even imagined swash-buckling pirates taking it as their bounty

    Parade Today

    What fun! My 4yo DD was looking over my shoulder and really was happy and excited to see your pics, she loved your prairie woman outfit a lot and said that your cart looked easy to turn. This is as we shortened the shafts on our jogger cart today so she must looking out for correct-length...

    I googled 4H the other night as I saw it mentioned so much on threads- it looks like an amazing program for youth! I wish we had something like that here. Good on you for starting own local club Mary What sorts of things are they working on at the moment? Taffy looks great, I love a bit of...

    Can we see pics of minis in training for driving?

    That is a great! A really level-headed response to a squirrel, I think I would have run off screaming for the hills, glad your boy took it all in his stride. I had my boy gelded when I got him and it made such a difference, he seemed to let go of his macho small-man syndrome attitude which...

    My 3yo gelding, taken this afternoon. I have been ground driving him 3-5 days a week since the end of March or beginning of April. He has been put to a jogger cart once last week, but I didn't actually drive him, just let him feel the shafts and do some halts and quiet standing around. Driving...
