7th Septemebr 2013

Sam and Joe have returned from their family holiday and it was great to have them back. Sam managed 3 lots on his foot, I am sure it won't be long before he's back to full fitness. Max Ward and Major Martin did a bit on the woodchip and I couldn't be happier with them. I have pencilled Max Ward in for a bumper at Market Rasen at the end of the month and Major Martin at Chepstow on 1st October.

I left Alice in charge late morning and we all headed off to Moreton Show, I am told it is the largest one day agricultural show in England. We watched a great jumping completion, 6 uprights all in line, the winner jumped 5ft 11 Inches - a fair feat in anyone book. The cheer leaders  in between classes would not get a job on an American football field, Simon Cowell would have had a field day with them on Britain Got Talent. 4 of them would have looked more at home in a wrestling arena! The chickens on display were incredible. Sadly, we didn't get to the cattle as we ran out of time. The cost of 7 hot dogs would have taken Sophie and I out for a night. We all had a lovely day and caught up with lots of mates.
