these little piggies went to market...

Place:The Royal Agricultural Show at Warwick.
Reason: To spend some time observing children on the McCain Potato Story bus, before getting started on the site design proper.
It reminded me so much of school - the smells, the men wandering around with farm coats and wellies... and with jousting to boot it was a pretty spectacular day trip - just a shame it was dumping down for most of the day...
Had some great sausages from Thirsk in Yorkshire, and brought home 3 packets for a fiver. Highly recommended, from Debbie and Andrews.
It was an incredibly grounding experience, standing in the drizzle, with sausages in hand, looking at these gorgeous little piglets and thinking about the importance of understanding and respecting where your food comes from...
