As you can see there was plenty to look at and I took far too many photos!
What a delightful fair. It is such a delight to see agriculture at its finest and best. I know you must have had the best day.

I love going to our fair, but missed it this year. Great photos here, though. Tommy and Carl have my vote for "most handsome" and the biting rabbit has my vote for "most likely to succeed"!
ReplyDeleteIt is that time of the summer for the fairs and agricultural shows. You have wonderful photos of the entries. I love the one with the sign: This rabbit bites. You don't often think of rabbits biting, but they do. We once one that ran free and was such a vicious attack rabbit that we kept a broom by the back door to protect our legs. Both of my parents had scars on their legs where Edward had bitten them. I also like the photo of the long legged chicken. And I love Yorkshire. Hope to return one day.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great show, and the cakes are making my mouth water.
ReplyDeleteI love your new header photo - what an amazing old building.
What fun looks great, why do those cakes look so good to me?
ReplyDeleteLove the donkeys and bunny and goat and sheep - and the cakes! x
ReplyDeleteFabulous pictures - and those cakes.....yum!

You can't beat a good old fashioned agricultural show ...love the romany caravan ......x
ReplyDeleteI'm happy that you still have a show, so many have been abandoned. You obviously had a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteI like the chocolate cakes and blue tractors best. All the agricultural shows round our way were in June, an already very busy month, would be nice if they were more spread out and some were in August.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful show! Did you go and see Romany Rose?!!! I love the 'bird' with the long legs and the smiling sheep. 'Elvis' doesn't look very animated up there on the platform! x
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great day out, lovely photos x
ReplyDeleteOh, I LOVE country shows, this looks wonderful, fat bottomed sheep and gorgeous cattle - there is a particular smell to them which is exquisite to me (mown grass, animals & the green scent of the flower & veg tents) - lovely photos!
ReplyDeleteenjoying a cup of tea and a trip to the fair, on a sunday morning over here in the states. thanks lyn!
ReplyDeleteI remember during my 3 weeks' stay in Norwich we were taken at the Norfolk Royal Show and it was quite similar...what a shock! We didn't know it was a country fair, LOL!
ReplyDeleteI particularly loved the cake stall you showed, he he... ;D
I can hardly get beyond the chocolate cakes!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! The next best thing to being there is being able to look at all these marvelous photographs. thanks so much.
ReplyDeleteWhat great photos and it looks like you had a wonderful day out. I haven't been to a country or County fair for ages, I went to loads growing up in the Dales and they hold great memories for me. Bx
ReplyDeleteOh Lyn, I really love all your photos from the show. I am a country girl at heart, and love anything like this. What about the rabbit that bites, and Elvis! x
