Eccleshall Show


Today the family headed to Staffordshire for the Eccleshall show, Originally we were going to take Rockin Robin but due to an extremely heavy work load we were not able to prepare it in time, However Grandad had taken his farm and Kellyn was looking forward to seeing it, So we set off through the boarder into the next county. Firstly we looked at the Classic Cars, we were amazed by the different club that were there supporting the show including the Mini's and Ford Capri. Kellyn was chuffed too as there was a Land Rover Display. Kellyn soon spotted Grandad and Nanny's Gazebo and both the children were extremely pleased to see them both, They decided to stay with them while we continued to look around the show. Next we watched the Working Gun Dog display, The dog's they were showing were in training but were still really good, i was really interested in them as spaniels are my favourite breed. Next we checked out the stalls and brought some odds and ends, Before returning back to the children and Nanny and Grandad.



A little while later we took the children to look around the show, We could not resit another look at the Dogs, One of the Dogs had recently had puppies and was proudly showing them off. Next we visited the poultry display, another all time favourite of mine, Kellyn also found some Kittens.
Next we looked in the Ferret Tent, all these lively animals were rescued, i was hard to belive how anyone could treat these small creatures so badly, some of there stories were honorific but on the brighter side it was good to see how they had transformed into the fun loving animals they are today.





It was soon time to be getting back, Kellyn was in a rush a watch X-Factor as he is really interested in the program at the moment. So we made our way home, all tired after a wonderful fun filled day.
