Course preparation.

So we were packed and the caravan hitched up and ready to move by just before lunch.  Fortunately we only had about three miles to travel we were heading For Hutton in the Forest to set up the stand ready for the horse Trials on Saturday and Sunday.

We met up with "The Mate" and his trailer at the show field which was being used by kind permission of Lord Inglewood.  While we were putting up the Marquee I decided I had better get something in the camera.

So this is a shot looking away from our stand towards the cross country course.  At the front you can see a machine still working on preparation of the course while up the hill to the left are a number of the jumps and already there are competitors out there "walking the course" and memorizing every twist and turn and jump ready for the next days competition.
