An early morning start

Staying with my sister Anne it turned out to be a busy weekend. An early start was needed to go to a meet of the East Kent Hunt. It is called "cubbing" which is a pre season opening meet to give the hounds a chance to find a fox. My niece Helen was riding along with her nephew Ben (my grand nephew). Sister Anne was driving in her car. The huntsmen do not wear their red hunting clothes for cubbing. 35 horses turned out. It helped that it was a warm day.
