Royal Welsh Show 2008


Due to Bluetongue restrictions there were fewer cattle exhibited than in previous years and it meant an all Welsh line-up with, unfortunately, several Welsh herds also unable to compete. This did not affect the high standard however and the judge, Jim Barber, was happy to compliment everyone on the quality of the British Blue cattle shown in 2008.

The Supreme and Female Champion was Lukeroyal Bimbo owned and exhibited by Adrian Williams. This was amazing success for Adrian, who was showing his heifer for the first time. She is a November 06 daughter of Twyning Ash Vaughan out of Lukeroyal Valentine.

She was shown by Sabrina Morgan who went on to gain 4th place in the Marks & Spencer Young Handler competition

The presentation of the trophies was made at the enjoyable Monday evening BBQ held at the British Blue stand. This was followed by Rhys Bellis, Club Vice Chairman presenting a surprised Linda Morgan with a British Blue cow and calf figurine in recognition of her years of hard work and dedication as Club Secretary. The prize tickets were then drawn for the raffle, which had been held during the evening and finally an auction for two remaining dishes of trifle and a bowl of cream! We would like to thank everyone who took part in the raffle and auction and hopefully a good time was had by everybody present.
