We had a family day out at the Herts County Show today. The £14.50 entrance fee for adults is a bit steep, but once you forget about that it’s all good fun, and a reminder that Hertfordshire still has a strong rural and farming tradition. The kids enjoyed seeing sheep shearing, horse jumping, poultry, cows, rabbits and more. They also, in what was a highlight for them both, got to clamber around inside the Herts Air Ambulance. There were also tractors, tourism and charity leaflets being handed out at, and plenty of opportunities to buy stuff for your dog, garden, or stomach. The Herts County Show does make for a good day out – I’d say great if the tickets we a few quid cheaper.
