00:00 That's a nice colourful display there we've got ladies. Where are we?
00:06 Westmid Showgrounds. Of course we are and what we doing? We're getting ready for the
00:10 Shropshire County Show, the 149th Shropshire County Show. 149th, that's not bad going is it?
00:16 And just running through, this is just the main opening ceremony, quad bikes,
00:22 stunts, action horses, livestock parade. You've got plenty going on haven't you?
00:26 We have yeah, one not to miss. Yeah and the massive show horse behind you,
00:32 that's actually to scale isn't it? That's how big these things are and
00:36 the idea is that it just kind of brings that into real life doesn't it for
00:41 people and because when you see it like that it's kind of a bit daunting isn't it really?
00:45 Yeah it gives you an idea, you can come and stand in front of it and find out
00:49 what size horse you are and then go and see the real thing. Yeah yeah.
00:54 So what sort of stuff are you particularly looking forward to at the show then?
00:56 What's the favourites for yourselves ladies? I think for me the Atkinson stunt
01:00 horses, the film style horses that have appeared on things like Game of Thrones.
01:03 Oh wow yeah. And for me it's definitely the heavy horses. The heavy horses.
01:09 Grand, well give those flags a wave.
01:12 (laughing)
