Ashfields Carriage Driving and Country Fair 7/8 May

Sounds like this is going to be one for your diaries, they have fundog classes, gundog classes, terrier and lurcher classes and you can show puppies from 4 months so ideal for those with young dogs who need the practise
We have 3 Lurcher's so will be enjoying the Lurcher classes and have never been to carriage driving before so this will be an all new experience
Trade, craft and food stands are also on site so plenty to keep you busy all day!
Here's a link to the web site
Premier League Horse Driving Trials & Country Fair

Hope to meet some of you there

Where going to this one, don't suppose you know what the rest of the shows going to be like. Ive heard that Richard Curtis is doing a display can't wait.

There is so much going on at Ashfields to be honest!
Alongside the Carriage Driving Championship events and dog show classes, there are two central arena falconry displays, gun dog display by the 'A' panel kennel club judge Adrian Slater, K92000 dog display team, Richard Curtis heel work to music/freestyle display, Crufts Freestyle Winner 2006 and 2010, ferret display and Pony Club!!
Plenty for everyone amongst all that I think

Heres a list of the fundog classes

I'm coming all the way down from Scotland for this one. Will there be a bar or do I need to bring my own. Who else is camping?

There is a 'back to school' disco so I would assume there will be a bar but I always take some of my own supplies

Cool I'll bring a plentiful supply just in case you guys run out of drink

Good one
We are also off to Selby this weekend, 22nd-25th, never been before but found out Bob Hogg Sheepdogs is doing a display and actor Jeff Hordley aka 'Cain Dingle' is making an appearance so should be good fun as well as 'four'!! yes 'four' consecutive days of dog showing, racing and simulated coursing

Had an excellent weekend at Selby. Hoping Ashfields is going to be even better

Looking forward to Ashfields, looks like a great family friendly (including the four legged members) event.
Anyone got prices? Address? Or even an events programme??
Cheers
