New Carriage Driving Season 2010



On 11th Feb Keith, our farrier put new shoes on the horses. We were optimistic after a week of cold dry weather that we would be able to start driving by March 1st.

However, since then we have been plagued by wet weather, which means that there hasn't been a day when we could think of putting a horse between the shafts!!

The occasional day of sunshine and blue sky is not enough to dry out the tracks and fields sufficient to allow us risk taking the carriages out without forming deep, permanent tramlines with their very narrow wheels. These tramlines are very difficult to avoid in the summer when they are baked hard!

So we all just have to be patient and pray that this spell of wet weather will soon get tired and dry up and compensate us with some lovely dry weather in the month of March!?
