Default Need 4 miniature horses moving...

I need 4 miniature horses collecting on 6th or 7th January 2010 from Aberdeen (coming over on Air Freight) - AB21 7GB and taking to Carmarthen in South Wales.

Any ideas?

I've posted on shiply just waiting for bids from them.

Have you thought about hiring Oompah Loompahs to ride them down to Wales?

Or leave a trail of miniature carrots from Aberdeen to Carmarthen for them to follow?

Dan, I had also considered this option, unfortunately each year in Britain we produce approximately 700,000 tonnes of carrots from 22 billion seeds! They are sown all year around and indeed on the route the horses would take should an Oompah Loompah ride them down or indeed if I laid a trail along the route.

Due to the obvious distraction this could cause to the horses I would like to gracefully decline your idea as a good one. I would also express a concern that as these horses are miniatures they would not be able to scale any fencing and as they are American Miniatures they may be too fat to walk 2 miles never mind 500 plus.

I'd also consider them to be a risk on the road as they are not familiar with roundabouts or traffic on the left.

Cheers anyway!

What a random post

At least the Oompah Loompah's wouldnt need hi vis jackets with their tango tans.

Why not hire a live stock trailer, only about £30-40 for the day.
Or go see a local farmer or livery see if they can lend you a trailer for a drink?
