The
Norfolk Club have held two successful stock judging evenings. The first was
held at held at Easton and Otley College’s Marlingford Herd and included the
HYB Linear and Stock Judging competitions.
Liam

The
second evening saw over 40 participants judge tough classes at Robert Paterson’s
Airfield Herd. Winning the senior section was David Britton with Andrea Vale
and Brian Macpherson winning the juniors.
The
Bures Herd hosted a farm walk, it is one of the larger herds in Norfolk and Billockby
Farms is one of only two remaining herds in the county owned by the Alston
family.
At
Royal Norfolk Show the Cawston family continued their winning ways and took the
Holstein and interbreed championships with their Poringland Honey 6. Honey has already been champion
at Newark and Suffolk Shows.
The HYB champion handler at the show was Charlotte Moody with her sister
Georgina taking reserve.
While Designer
Holsteins took champion and reserve in the calf classes with the champion Glasson
Meridian Blaise A and reserve Designer Alexander Sharon.
Preparations
are now under way for the All Breeds Calf Show on the 14th September
with Tom Peters judging. Hopefully there
will not be too many sore heads following the wedding of Ralph Proctor,
Airfield and Lucy Brigham, Easthaugh.
Congratulations and best wishes to them both for a long and happy life
together.
