That sounds absolutely brilliant and would have been well worth the journey, but we too are lambing.

BUMP - 3 weeks on Saturday - CSSA members only £1 - your chance to have a go at judging or just to find out what judges are looking for.

We'll be putting a list of  the 2014 events on the website as soon as dates have been agreed.
