[QUOTE="T Hectares, post: 4301778, member: 2522"] This is taking place on the Farm that I manage. I may even make my competition Ploughing debut !! [SIZE=5][B]ANNUAL PLOUGHING MATCH - SATURDAY 21ST OCTOBER 2017[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=4][B]- 24-May-2017[/B][/SIZE] [IMG]http://www.newburyshowground.co.uk/Images/Society/IMG_5609.jpg?Action=thumbnail&Width=1000&Height=500&algorithm=fill_proportional[/IMG] The Annual Society Ploughing Match will take place on Saturday 21st October at the Woolley Estate, Woolley, OX12 8NJ. This is a popular event in our Society calendar and is regularly contested by around 70 local ploughing champions. There are classes for conventional, reversible and horse-drawn ploughs, as well as expanding classes for vintage tractors and ploughs. The Champion of the day qualifies to go forward to the National Ploughing Championships. Aside from the competitions, the event has something for everyone with an interest in the countryside. Farming both old and is brought to life in unique working demonstrations. The magnificent shire horses decorated with ornate brass and leather harness will pull a horse drawn plough, and steam ploughing. In contrast, top machinery firms will be demonstrating their latest, most up-to-date, powerful, multi-furrow ploughing units used by todays farmers. When you need a break from ploughing, a refreshment stall and a bar will be available to whet your whistle and don’t forget the hotly contested Domestic competitions! Anyone can enter and all exhibits will be auctioned off at the end of day for charity. The entrance charge for the Ploughing Match is £5.00 and children under 16 are free of charge. [B]Domestic Competitions[/B] [B][U]General Rules[/U][/B] All exhibits to be delivered to the ploughing match site by 09:30 hours. Cakes & Sausage Rolls to be wrapped in cling film. ALL Produce will be auctioned off prior to the prize giving on the day, funds donated to The League of Friends of The Royal Berkshire Hospital [B]The judge's decision is final.[/B] [B]Class 10[/B] [B]A Carrot Cake (to your own recipe and of any size)[/B] [B]Class 11[/B] [B]"Hedgerow" Liqueur i.e. Blackberry Brandy, Damson Gin etc. [/B] [B]Class 12[/B] [B]"Sloe Gin" [/B] [B]Class 13[/B] [B]2 Scotch Eggs (to your own recipe and of any size)[/B] [B]Class 14[/B] [B]6 Sausage Rolls (to your own recipe and of any size)[/B] [B]Class 15[/B] [B]A Jar of Chutney (to your own recipe and of any size)[/B] [/QUOTE]
