Good day forecast for tomorrow. Looking forward to this event - visited the farm on Monday and the smell of fresh paint nearly knocked us over!

Adam Henson's opening it and staying for the day - some of the (male) committee wanted Kate Humble but Adam got the vote.

Saw the signs for it at the weekend, but I don't intend to go along. Although, I have the afternoon away from work to take Alex to hospital at Stirling, so we could drop in.

I want to have a look at some sheep handling equipment before the RHS. I'm not sure I would have gone thought if I wasn't working at it anyway.

The list of tradestands was impressive, I have to say.

Don't know what you're looking for Rosemary, but we have used Modulamb, who I know were listed to have a stand there today, and I can really recommend them.

Yes, Modulamb has been recommended to me by someone else. As it turned out, I didn't have much time - by the time we got the first 50 kids away at lunchtime, cleared up and had a bite of lunch, the second group of 80 were arriving. I'll just have to wait for RHS.

It was a really good event though - it woudl have been good to have had a wander round. Lovely day, too and the kids realy enjoyed it.
