This show was a few weeks ago now, but worth a show on the blog, because we really enjoyed it and there were some magnificent animals there. Educational also as i had no idea that there were that many breeds of sheep and goat just either side of the Pyrenees. I do not know what it is but i have always lovef to look at farm animals, to photograph and to draw. There is a field of black pigs roaming free looking for acorns in field at the end of our village, i love seeing them scampering about, Milou is not sure what to make of them at all, unlike the horses in the new stables fairly nearby, she stands and barks at them sending them squeaking and oinking in the opposite direction.

donkeys are half respected here, which is good |
|
one guy's lifetime supply of old Citroen's.... |
|
......i fell in love with more than a couple especially the green |
|
.....and some old tractors
Mostly it was livestock here, with a bit of a fair thrown in. It could be just country life, but i enjoy the simplicity of some folk music, rustic food a few craft stalls and a sunny sunday afternoon......
