Title: doune and dunblane show
Post by: robert waddell on June 26, 2012, 09:30:34 am
as title 7th of July an ideal chance for showing your pig and the sausage comp this is gaining in interest with every show and lets you get your hand in before the the big one in September
any questions on pig showing or the sausage comp just ask  the more entrants the better :farmer:

Remember there's not just pigs to see at the show! Goats, Sheep and Cattle to.


Doune and Dunblane is a lovely show. Oh, and don't worry about the weather being bad- it is the best show I know for them getting you into and out of the show ground if the weather is bad and it's muddy.

But you need to take the cable car to get to the top of the field  ;)

Thought you'd be at the CSSA barbecue yesterday since you are close?  Good day, learned a lot about pigs - enough to know I don't want any. ;D

My place is muddy enough without any pigs.  I like bacon, sausages and burgers but not lumps of pork. ;)


Thanks for your hospitality and talk about pigs - great day, enjoyed your and Lillian's company.

Just had it confirmed the show has been cancelled this year. Just as the sheep had been bathed  >:(
