There was food:
Lots and lots of food. (We had Welsh oggies - very nice, and a Yorkshire fruit cake - really nice!)
There was weather:
Serious amounts of rain. £15 wellies purchased on site. Seeking out tents to avoid torrential downpours.

Being a total townie, there was much excitement when the Tamworth Pig took off running during judging. Also much amazement at sheep that resembled horses. And the most enormous bull  and cow I have ever seen. And much 'aw'ing at the pygmy goats snuggled up together to sleep. And I've never seen so many weird and wonderful varieties of chicken!

Quite a fun day out!
