Six in Hand Horse Drawn Funeral
Karen did a six-in-hand horse drawn funeral yesterday in St Helens. It was a traveller's funeral and as the family insisted on walking in front of the hearse to the cemetery, the traffic in the town centre ground to a halt.

What a Day!
Yesterday we had 3 horse drawn funerals in one day; a black hearse with team of blacks, a white hearse with team of greys and another black hearse with a pair of blacks. Karen even managed to drive the two team funerals herself. It was a logistics nightmare but we managed to turn out 3 hearses, 10 horses and 5 horse boxes!

Catton Horse Driving Trials
Karen came 2nd at Catton Horse Driving Trials at the weekend and so sadly will not be part of the team going to the pony world championships. She did, however, take new horse, Wilaan, in her horse team for experience and was delighted that she took everything in her stride. Including when a loose horse hurtled into her portable stabling and joined her for a few minutes until rescued by the groom! For results see website.
