Had a nice day at the driving event. The rain stopped as we unloaded the ponies, and stayed away all day!!
We have a visit from a Dalesfan .....Sarah, Perry and Emma came over to join us, bringing the gorgeous Fidget. Both Fidget and Tyson were really well behaved for their first driving event. They both had a go at the cone course, and looked like they had been doing it years!! Tyson had a go at the Le Trec course as well, and we were gobsmacked when he got 54 points out of 60!! He got a 10 for his standing at the washing line.
Emma had a nice time, and seemed to have a ride on all the carriages, ranging from Shetland to Shire, with Tyson and the pair of Haflingers as well.
I am sorry to bore you, but there will be 6 pics following ......

Emma was determined to have a ride on the shire cart. Here she is, very high up, with Alan, and the gorgeous Titan, the gentle giant!  |

We had a fantastic time today, what a lovely group of people. Titan was truly a gentle giant and Fidget despite being his mini body double was absolutely terrified of him!
Tyson is a beautiful pony, I really like him and hes up for anything. A great little lad!
Emma had a fantastic time shes been busy telling everyone who will listen all about the horses and carts and she is very impressed that she drove Fidget round the cones course! Lovely to meet up with some people who knew Fidget when she was a baby too and they recognised her straight away and I also asked Fidgets old owner Kirsty to come and say hello today so that was nice. Perry insisted on taking pictures on his phone so they are mostly rubbish (like I told him they would be)! GRRR
Got some great help with things and was excellent experience for Fidget.

What a smart little chap in his cart. He looks like he's enjoying it. It would be worth doing the washing just to hang it out! What a score first time out  |

Just thought fidget had grown!
They all look wonderful, and Tyson does look a lot slimmer Mair.
