wanted to hire/borrow-sheep hurdles, Lanark/Biggar
« on: December 30, 2013, 08:15:42 am »
I wondered if anyone could hire/lend me a set of the above for a couple of weeks please? My ground is washed out and mostly under water and the stables aren't going in before the second week in jan. I'd like to rig up a small pen in the workshop for the ponies so they can come in out of the weather for a few hours (won't be leaving them unattended but atm, having to hold them and could be getting on with other things).

You can hire metal pedestrian barriers, 7ft long for £1.50 per week Look on ebay or local adverts.
Would it not be easier to put some hooks in the wall and tie the ponies up?

Landroverroy, we have done that, thanks. they get terribly bored very quickly when tied up though-they mainly live out and don't see why they should  ::)


Thanks for the offer Jaymac it is a little in the wrong direction given work etc  I think we'll carry on as we are until the stables are put in.
