I was amused by the line up of pooch groomers prior to showing their dogs in the ring.
We didn't show Mia but Mr Him was encouraged to enter Best in Breed - the Bassett Hound look
We moved on to watch a sheep shearing show. This guy had quite a few one liners that kept us staying for more.
'look, I don't want these pictures turning up in the Daily Mail tomorrow,' as he positioned himself to shear.
'if you ladies think I have done a good job on Dolly's bikini line then I can do yours for 50p. If you don't have 50p I'll lend it to you.'
Lunch was hot-dogs sitting on the grass in the sun.
We shopped for cheese
Miss 21 found a new interest in bull keeping. Maybe looking for tips on how to look after the automotive engineer.
At home we unpacked our goodies, Heurcheras for the garden, a Spanish sherry described as liquid fruit cake, cheeses and chutney, and a new foutala. You know how much I like my foutalas here!
Cider, its derigour,
and Miss 21 unpacked hers. A fluffball keyring, American candy and jelly snake thingy.
Looks like a fun outting and wonderful purchases.

I guess country shows are the same the world over.
DeleteA wide comb shearer? He certainly sounds like a bit of a wide boy.
ReplyDeleteEntertaining though
DeleteSuper post. I'm glad someone had a nice Bank Holiday weekend.
ReplyDeleteEveryone round our way was just miserable!
I wish I'd gone
