Those of you who were on the site the other Sunday may have wondered what on earth was going on with all those people about. Well, we were hosting a 12 km. obstacle race for Naked Strength to benefit the A.B.F. and R.A.B.I. Similar events will be held in February and August next year so if you fancy joining in watch this space!
I’ve posted below some photos of the day and these is a video of the whole course on YouTube if you follow this link
All Over at the Finish

Some of you will know at this time of the year David takes the prize specimens of his sheep around the best of the agricultural shows to compete against other breeders. So far we’ve been to the Staffordshire and Kenilworth shows.
At Staffordshire we had the Reserve champion Ram with one of our Dorsets and won the ‘Best 3’ class with the Charmoise. We did equally well at Kenilworth and have the Ian Litchfield Trophy on display for the best pen of 3 lambs.
The big shows – Three Counties, Great Yorkshire – are yet to come so keep watching for the results.

Sunday 19th. saw the Northern Dorset Breeders Club visit Bramcote for a demostration of how to trim sheep for showing given by Carole and Geoff Grain – the A Team Trimming Services.
As well as watching there was an opportunity to have a go during the day and a good time was had by all.

Regulars will be aware that this time of year it’s hard to find David in the office as he’s off showing sheep all over the place. We’ve had great success at the shows so far winning various classes at the Staffordshire, Kenilworth and Three Counties shows. We’ve just got the sheep back from the Lincolnshire show where we had 7 First prizes, 4 Second prizes and 2 Reserve Champions!
Photos to follow along with some extra special news from the Lincolnshire Show!

Those of you who were at Bramcote Mains yesterday might have wondered what all these people were doing running around the site. It was a ‘Help for Heroes’ event running from the barracks. I managed to capture some images for those of you that missed it:
