Ohh a alpaca rug sounds great!!!
If you have any spare this year give me a yell

Not compatible with my pack sadly.If you like big horses you might like the Breton Horses, big square working beasts. When I was a kid I used to have an old New Forest ride and drive and a 4 wheel gypsy cart and would take her out on the narrow welsh lanes every friday- ah nostalgia!
