[QUOTE="Dolomite, post: 6443920, member: 46844"] Kind of given up on the Yorkshire show. It’s gone much the same way the Royal show, Lincolnshire and others did. Too commercial, too mainstream for townies and for them not in farming, too horsey and then it’s too expensive to get in. Most shows now are a fashion show for both men and women, a platform to show off, brag and swagger about. I just want to go for a nice day out looking around at quality livestock, machinery and ideas for the farm without some prize Pratt flaunting something they haven’t got in public trying to impress the mass crowds. Most agricultural show Le are very far removed from what they once were and will soon loose any tie to the industry. Look at how minuscule the machinery and farm section is at the GYS. I’ll save my time and days off for Driffield show and Ashover. Highland this year was an eye opener for me on how large shows can still stick to agriculture if they don’t allow the tat to take over.
