National Beef Fair in Hexham



Home on the very early train and straight down to the Mart in Hexham where there was an incredible display both in and outside the Mart of all matters "beef". The orgainsers deserve great credit; we had entrants from as far afield as Devon.
A great set of trade stands were set up both inside and out. My host was Edward Heslop, who knows beef cattle inside out.


A good day was had by one and all
Good piece in the local paper about my meeting with the head of the NFU in London last week http://www.hexhamcourant.co.uk/news/news-at-a-glance/nfu-gathers-support-from-new-batch-of-mps-1.713805?referrerPath=news
