Spent yesterday at the Welsh Royal Show. Forget the World Cup, they had the world shearing championships on which was a great to see. I was surprised at the number of countries represented. The finals were on today and hopefully the Aussies will bring home the goods.
Who wants a hair cut? Or maybe just a comb? They really do love their sheep over here.
This was something else that was new to me - Painted sheep. Yellow, orange or brown seemed to be the most popular colours. Didn't see any merinos in amongst all the hundreds of other breeds on display.
This is Tony Davis, a UK scholar. He is studying mutton production and marketing.
I love the country side over here. Driving around, everything looks so picture perfect. By the look of Tony's promotional banner, Elan Valley must be an exceptional place.
