A personal glimpse of daily life at the Ash Tree Stables at Holton Lee (the home of the East Holton Driving Centre) near Poole in Dorset, a carriage driving centre for disabled adults. Written contributions from other helpers or disabled carriage drivers about their impressions or experiences very welcome. Just email me: jon.colvile at gmail.com Left click on an image to enlarge.

Spring? Summer?
On one of the better days weatherwise a cheerful Nigel arrived with a gift of two pots of lovely colourful Violas to grace the entrance to the chalet.
Spring or summer seem to be a long time reaching us this year!!
We have had a few good driving days, but just as the ground was drying up from a week of sunshine and bitter cold northerly winds, back came the rain to undo all the good dry spell!
Talk about frustration!!
With Easter on us and the promise of fair weather for the week ahead perhaps we can turn our backs on what has been a long, cold, tiresome winter and look forward to happy driving with more confidence.
The new tarmac is a dream come true for all, and when it dries up sufficiently to allow cars to use the fields, the last bit of road down to the stables will be repaired...yippeee!
