It was a most enjoyable morning , the carriage was a Landau dating back to 1910, I went with my Son and his Partner , my daughter who booked it was not able to get over due to work commitments .
Daniel and Sarah are the Carriage owners , Daniel had been a Carriage Driver in the Royal Horse Guards .The Horses were so quite and Daniel spoke softly to them ,
Thank you @LongDriver and @Chilliboot , it was a most relaxing and comfortable ride , and we discussed how it use to be in those days travelling that way.
Id like to live in those times .
I’ve just read The Secret Rooms by Catherine Bailey…it reads like the best kind of mystery story …all about the history of Belvoir.
A shocking but enthralling factual story of destroyed documents…decadent aristocracy betrayed honour and curses.
You will view the aristocracy differently if you read it…it throws a bright light on powerful people and the cowardice and connivance…especially during the 1st World War and beyond.
