Good Heavens - how did all you bright sparks manage to write on TAS last night after the show? I was knackered when we got home, and we only live a few miles away

It was a great day and the atmosphere was so friendly and upbeat. There were some beautiful animals there of all species - I just wish I'd had time to see more, but it's always the price you pay for showing. I didn't do more than hear the poultry and cattle, never had time to look

I did get to try out the rigid heddle loom which I was pleased about, and bought a giant log basket for the firewood. Oh and we got a free Scots Pine from the Woodland Trust, and they will visit to give advice on our woody and hedgy bits.
Now to look forward to next year's show. I have already started to write up some notes on feedback (typical me

) but I'll wait til Rosemary, Dan, Martin and Karen have had time to draw breath after yesterday's big do.
