You will have a fab time - my mum hasn't missed a Fayre Oaks in 20 years - she absolutely lives for it!
Just a word regarding temperament (I know nothing about driving!) Section Bs are often very 'Riding Pony' type (i.e. show pony), light of bone compared to the other welsh breeds and can be quite sharp. My mum is a B breeder so I have had plenty of experience with them! Take a look on her website for examples (not advetising BTW as all the ponies for sale are well out of date!) -www.megland.co.uk - Jeremy, the stallion is a real old-fashioned sort of B, a lot of the modrn ones are much lighter build.
Section Cs are less sharp and highly strung but can be a bit bolshy and opinionated - as can all the Welsh sections to be honest! From a non-driving point of view I think Cs look much smarter in harness, especially those with big flashy action. I only have one C but have known a few in my time!
Good luck whatever you decide to go for - there will be some bargain basement buys!
