From my very limited knowledge, I don't think that they sell animals at the show - but don't quote me. I have a contact for Isa Warren POL in Fife if you are interested. I am going on Saturday so let's hope the sun shines.

no sales in the previous years (as far as I remember), only show show, but I'm sure the breeders can help you if you want information about sales. :&>

only remember a herbs stall, but maybe they'll have veg one this year. there's still time to put them straight in the ground, Linz, my beans aren't in yet! All the early attempts turned to mush, not worth trying to cheat time with beans... :&>

I spent a fair bit of time with the Goats, they had some Toggenburgs - 2 kids just a week younger than my 2 boys and I have to say that my boys are much prettier (not that I'm biased or anything). They had 1 Golden Geurnsey goat there who was a year old and I just fell in love with her, she was beautiful (and she knew it ha ha ha). I think Beth she belonged to your friend in Glenfarg.

The show had a great turn out but I felt there could have been a whole lot more on offer.

I agree! And a lot less rubbish on sale would have been nice, too...:&>

She did belong to my friend- Avril from Glenfarg. She won the show as well! Very pleased for her.

Will be at Central and West Fife all day with the goats so will come along to the CSS.

Beth - Have you seen this GG Goat, she is just the most beautiful and unusal colour. Had she had a "For Sale" sign on her pen on Saturday I would have brought her home. Hope you had a good show at the weekend.

I haven't seen her this year yet, no. Saw her lots last year, when she was a little small, but I assume she has grown on very nicely. I think you would probably have to fight Avril's daughter Lisa for her! I must check and see if she has entered the Royal Highland again.
