A Blast from the Past -
At this time of the year many of us spend a couple of moments to reminisce over the events of the last year.
-
I focused on my choice for "the event of the year right here in the 3 villages" - the Southwell Ploughing Match hosted by Bulcote Farm Estate - and what an event it proved to be !!.. .
-
Our villages 4000 population temporarily increased to over 12000 for this glorious late summers days spectacular - with a car park for 2000 + vehicles of every shape and size
-
The day was organised and staged with a professional expertise which would comfortably stand alongside the National Royal Agricultural Show - Yes really!
-
To the participants in the Main events, the Competitors in the Garden Produce Tent and Exhibitors all contributed to staging a most memorable day - I applaud you all, with thanks again for a "day to truly remember"
- 
Techniques and skills of "Times Gone Bye" were exhibited and displayed - a real pleasure to see in the "flesh"
The car park then and now just 2/3 months later - a huge seeded field 
The Main Ring then and now .. grazing once again
-
What is your most memorable local event of 2008 ?
