Visiting the Glendale Show

Glendale Show Aug 15 (16)

We went to the Glendale Show near Wooler in Northumberland on Bank Holiday Monday. There was a goat show, among other livestock events, and we were keen to see what went on, with a view to entering Pinkie next year. There were also lots of trade stands and we ended up having lots of useful conversations with smallholders, goatkeepers and especially cheesemakers. It turned out to be a very useful day out and we have lots of contacts to follow up.

We have a Land Rover Defender ourselves so this section caught our interest.

We didn't enter any of the industrial competitions but if we are back next year, we'll be there with jam, loaves and bread and goats.
