Due to visitors, we were unable to actually use the trailer for three weeks after we first got it (except to go out and pat and stroke it). Finally, pft and I got to make a long-awaited trip to Cool.

Mouse and Zini both got in without a murmur, got out without any fuss, and reloaded again at the end, in the dark, with no worries. The trailer was declared a success.
