From bulls to balancing acts, all the components of a good show are here. A band plays, weighty cattle (e.g. Herefords, Ayrshires, Welsh Blacks, Friesians) and heavy Shire horses parade, an escapee heifer runs trailing its rope, the Tanatside Hounds enter the ring, and a trio of acrobats defy belief! A good – and certainly dry - day was no doubt had by all although the Hereford bull that found a cabbage in its feed bowl looks as if he may have been bemused or even not amused.
