Wonderful site! Your have so much in the UK ,it is inspirational to just read about it all. The info is really good too(I was looking at the details on what is involved i)n TREC.I found you through Carriage Driving magazine. For overseas readers info on big shows like the South of England Carriage Fair would be useful in those planning a trip(pilgrimage!) to the UK. I will include this site in my favourites list.

I just wanted to congratulate the BDS and it's extremely hard working officials. There are many people who are happy enough to put pen to paper to complain when something is not to their liking, but not enough who will do the same when they are pleased. Well.... I would like to take this opportunity to thank Barrie Luck, Charlotte Lawson, Tess Styles and the other stewards and officials during the BDS Annual show this year. I have learnt so much from you all through both days (setting up and the show itself) and can not wait for the Jubilee Show to meet with you all again. So thank you BDS for supporting me in the sport that I love! Best wishes Tara

I have been away from horses for quite a while but would like to get back. Dont think my old riding injuries will stand riding so would really like to learn to drive. Does anyone know if there is anywhere near Widnes??

Hello anyone out there in Lincolnshire. I have been pleasure driving and also competition driving for the last four years with my gypsy cob - sadly was dismissed from a local driving club due to personal circumstances. I now have a chance to acquire approx 10 acres of land in which to contruct obstacles, cones, etc. and just wonder what call there may be for that. Also I am heavily involved with RDA, my horse having done the Riding aspect for many years but as he is aging (as I) I would just love to extend his/my abilities. So if there is anyone out there who wishes to contribute in terms of advice, training, participating, etc. etc. then please get in touch. I will also need some driving training as much of mine has been self-taught - or rather my horse taught me! We were lying first in the Club Novice events and so I do have a good grasp but obviously not a professional or qualified aspect which I guess I will need. So anyone and everyone who could either help, wish to become involved, take part etc. please let me know Regards to all Judie Regler.

I am currently just starting up my own carriage driving business and would be very interested to find out if people would enjoy coming to an Island off the west coast of scotland to have a driving activity holiday. I am just doing research and would be very interested in any comments.
