You might have thought there was no drought this summer in the Rutland villages of Preston Wing & Ridlington! Their Annual Show was full of stunning vegetables, flowers, cakes, breads, jams & gins. Children provided some great entries too in their sections! I particularly enjoyed the owl (below). The men’s fruit cake competition was ‘hotly’ contested; the exhibit which (no doubt by intent???) was the colour of a lump of charcoal generated much comment. Everyone seemed happy, no-one taking it too seriously. It was a pleasure to give the prizes.
