Last week was the return of the annual Lincolnshire Show that our family all went. I love it as it is a great showcase of what lincolnshire is all about. Not only do you have huge amount of farm machinery, but local shops, businesses, schools, and sellers all congregate on the showground to show what they have to offer.
It is a huge
event; 1 day there is almost not enough, with delicious food, live shows in the
main ring and lots of independent entertainers around the grounds there is
something to see and do all day. I really enjoy going and have done for years.
The kids did the classic GO, GO, GO, then tantrum as they were too hot and tired,
but once they had rested we were able to enjoy the day again!
They particularly
just wanted to be in ALL the tractors. That was it. They just loved it and we
easily spent 2 hours just watching them sit in and on different machines!
The shopping
was lovely and Raph and I both came away with some stylish leather hats from
Fennmill. Little Raph had been asking for days to be a cowboy but it was pretty
much the only outfit we didn’t have in our dressing up box, so when I saw these
gorgeous leather hats, I knew that by the end of the day we would be purchasing
one! Obviously, I got one as they were just so lovely!
Between sitting
in a gorgeous ‘in my dreams’ Range
Rover from Duckworth, admiring The Kangaroo Kid's quad bikes and enjoying the main
ring shows, we found ourselves wandering in the hot sun and just enjoying the
sights.
Enjoy the
photos and if you are interested in what happens on the Lincolnshire Showground
take a peak!
Also, in case
you didn’t know a Yellowbelly refers to a born and bred Lincolnshire lad/lass!
