This year’s Royal Highland Show is just around the corner. Final preparations are taking place with the Show Sheep, the white coats have been freshly washed and ironed and the water / feed buckets have been cleaned out. All we need is the weather to stay nice. Keep in touch with how we are doing by checking out our Facebook page. We are at 1,948 likes, lets see how many more we can get during the Highland Show. If you are at the Show, please come along to the North Country Cheviot Section at the Sheep Lines to say Hello.

Roderick and Amanda were over at Balmoral Show in Northern Ireland last week for Roderick to judge the North Country Cheviot Section on Thursday morning. Lovely sunny day but windy – hope this is not the weather for the rest of the Show Season.
