[benson21]

[Singing Dawg]

In this windy weather? Well done I hear driving is addictive, so i'm never going to try it!

 

[benson21]

I absolutely loved it! Started out with a death grip on the reins, but by the end I had almost forgotton where i was!!

 

[Pearlsasinger]

Well done, you!

You have all my admiration, quite apart from your history, which would have been enough to put many people off for ever, I really can't get on with driving, although we've had many ride and drive horses, as I always feel to be leaning forwards towards the horse and feel in danger of falling off the front of the vehicle.

 

[Elsbells]

Whoop!! Well done, you've passed a milestone!

Unfortunately I couldnt take pics and drive at the same time!!!
Went up at 5, not realising we were going out on the road, although I knew it was gonna be soon. Got there, Sonny said, get tacked up we are going out on the road, and I went into meltdown! I was shaking!! Litteraly trembling as I am trying to do up the buckles on his harness. But then I got on board and we got going. I had the choice of which way to go, we went down a huge hill, trotted almost all the way round, met a few cars, the first I just sat there and said 'what do I do?' Not sure what I was expecting the answer to be!! We were out for about 45 minutes, got back and I gave him a hot shower, while quietly shedding a couple of tears in private!! Then went out and backstepped whilst Sonny took another one out. A really good end to a day!!

 

[benson21]

and now I am crying again!!!
