East Walton and Carriage Driving with 'Tina'

It had been many years since I'd been carriage driving with Linda and Ray, but was invited to join them for a few days at EastWalton earlier this week.   There are numerous tracks in this part of Norfolk, perfect for driving.   The challenge beforehand had been to find the right boots, hard hat and gloves.   Thankfully my boots held out until we were back on the farm on my last drive - image to follow!   Linda had had coloured ponies previously but now has a splendid horse which was bought in the Netherlands seven years ago.   She did a great job taking three of us and a couple of Patterdale dogs over many Norfolk miles of track.
