The Royal Norfolk Show photos, for those who like agricultural shows.

Yesterday we went to the Royal Norfolk Show, which we both enjoyed, though I found it quite tiring, lots of walking. We were there for 7 hours, good thing we took OH's mobility scooter, I was able to borrow it for a bit! I liked the carriage driving best. The motorbike riders I thought were quite mad! Lots of animals, farm equipment, shops, street food, horses, displays, flower show, funfair etc.

    I prefer the Jerseys. In fact I had posted a photo of them in the first batch.

    Lovely pictures @Busy-Lizzie. I do love Shire horses and their little foals make my heart melt. They are just so magnificent and strong and yet gentle creatures, would love one😊 The first picture is splendid, what horns! Also liked the plant displays and flower arrangements very much. You did right borrowing OH's buggy, what a good idea.

    Agricultural shows are not my thing, but that white gravel designer garden with the palms and patio - the 6th photo down from your first batch, is better than anything I've seen from Chelsea.  I think it's fabulous..
