Hey guys,

Is it still summer? I’m currently at an extremely wet Royal Welsh Agricultural Show (RWAS) in Builth Wells in Wales (funnily enough!?). We’re day three into a four day show and we’re having all sorts of fun and games; I think it is only fair to say that we have brought the great Scottish weather with us to Wales, as we had torrential rain every day at the show so far.

Being honest, on reflection this year so far, we have had excellent weather at almost all of the events that we have attended. However I can only describe the weather here in the true Scottish style that it deserves: Murder! As you you’ll see from the pictures below we have managed add our own private pool in front of our stand, in fact one unfortunately lady went head first into it…………. 

Regardless of the weather, this has been a great show. I have been genuinely surprised how many people have tried Black Bottle before, or at least recognise it. I have found the local Welsh to very hospitable and other exhibitors around us even more so; I’m unsure if the weather is making everyone pull together, however I must say that I met some of the friendliest folk here at the show – we have been provided with Wellies (if it wasn’t fur yur Wellies…), an unquantifiable amount of Muller Yoghurts and coffee until comes out of our ears.

On Monday, after the show (much to some peoples dismay, we don’t work all the time!), we stumbled upon what can only be described as a Welsh Farmers Rave. For fear of talking about things that shouldn’t be described on a page like this, all I will say is this…..I wonder how many children called Builth Wells are born around April next year???

I have left some pictures for you check out, enjoy the rest of your week,
Darroch
