Thanks Richard,
It tows very well. The trailer was a forced purchase after my horse (Teddy) started to stumble in our Ifor Williams trailer. It transpires that big horses can struggle in forward facing trailers. The Equitrek has them travelling facing backwards and he is fine in that. At the time, we suspected he might be undergoing some arthritic changes. 18 months later (he is 19 now) and we have now noticed that he struggles in trot on some surfaces. We called the vet out 2 weeks ago and, following a course of simple pain killers / anti inflamatories (Bute), which gave a small improvement, he is now booked in for X-Rays on 31/01 so that we can get to the bottom of his troubles.

You have my sympathy. The vets bills for my dog make my eyes water - god only knows what they must be on a horse!

Thanks Ewan, I got the panels from https://thegarageorganisers.com.au/awall-slatwall-details-page.htm

There are really good as the hooks and baskets etc. can be put virtually anywhere. I bought sheets of 1200 by 2400 plywood and cut them into either 300mm or 400mm wide. I put a 300mm on the bottom, above that of the tide wall slatted panels then a 400mm wide piece of plywood at the top. I had planned to do 300mm top and bottom but my son bought me some 305mm by 500mm metal car signs so I went 400mm so they would fit nicely.

Here are some more photos after I had finished the job. Before doing the walls I made 3 cupboards in the corners of the garage.
