preparing a horse for show
a pony and trap pair dashing along
these geese are definitely followers
£2000 for this wooden horse. Yes darling but where would we put it
this is still a table. I’m not quite sure what we would put on it, why and how
there are many craftsmen in this part of the world plying their trade
fiendish machines part one
fiendish machines part two
this looks like a seed sowing machine
acres of judging of fruit and veg bread and preserves
perfect onions
vegetables made to look like transport vehicles
first prize for saladings
that’s not bad either
perfect leeks
endless cheeses in the competition
goodness knows how many kilograms these weigh
first prize in the Wine and Roses competition
the second prize isn’t too bad either
Capt Manwaring talking about WW1
Peter Hayward and his wife specialising showing West Country milk bottles between 1880 and 1980 in Devon, Cornwall, Somerset and Dorset
lots of competitions for the children
a painting competition
developing children’s imaginative powers
telling a story
dogs waiting to be judged

Anyway, I trust you got the idea. It is always worth going to these events. you can have a chat with anyone you want, compare views or prejudices, and above all enjoy an occasion that doesn’t cost anything at least in this situation. If you are coming on your own, it really doesn’t matter. An individual is an individual and that’s all people care about.
