THE ROYAL CHESHIRE COUNTY SHOW 19.6.2019 

A big thank you to the committee for the invitation to Judge at this super show. A new one for me, and we were quite lucky with weather even though it was very muddy in the carparks, our ring was in pretty good order. My job was made easier with the help of two good stewards Roger and Collette.
