Well I went before reading these replies so didn't make it to zwartbles or ferrets, sorry, maybe another time :)

I did have a couple of interesting chats with folk showing sheep and the guy with the duck herding display.  Did 2 rounds of the poultry tent, one just looking then one with the catalogue flicking between pages.  Met a few of the pony folk I used to show with, but most in the rings were all new to me.  Went to see my woodturning tutor and chatted with a couple other guys that work with wood in different ways.  Only thing I bought was cheese, and lunch/coffees obviously but I managed not to come home with anything else except sore feet and a long wish list!
