Anyway off with the moaning about how remote my new house is and onto the show report :D Thank you Caroline (and Neil) for a lovely day, beautiful weather and a nice cool hall which was good!
The show had a black and white theme (as you may have guessed from the title of this Blog post...which I'm sure is going to attract exactly the wrong type of internet searches) and some fun extra classes for piebald horses and ponies :D
It also had OF, CM & AR sections for all makes and models as well as a smaller CRC section at the end of the day.
The full set of photographs can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10156121243715155.1073742082.689360154&type=1&l=99c22c3038
