Despite what turned out to be a 6 hour journey through floods and traffic chaos our visit to North Wales and Mercia’s Lamb Show at the English Winter Fair was a great success. Beautiful sheep and friendly competition.
Lambs leant to nervous handlers ready for the Rare Breeds Survival Trust’s Young Shepherd competition - ooh and I knew just how they felt!! Dexter Martin achieving Reserve champion in the junior section. Matilda wanted a feisty lamb so we were happy to oblige also getting in the rosettes!
Our thanks to Michelle and the RFBS North Wales & Mercia Region for a really well organised and enjoyable event. The replica trophy which we can keep is such a lovely idea!
Joshua Brigg had a monster task judging both Coloured and Ryelands which he made look effortless, thank you.
Hard to think we are only 2 months away from starting all over again!!
