Another show year has ended with the Annual Cup Show at Sowood where there were four splendid trophies to be won. Many congratulations to the winners, who were…

Woodiwiss Bowl – Best in show – [log in to see names].
Coronation Cup – Best Opposite Age in show – xxx.
Mendel Gold Cup – Best type – xxx.
Middleton Cup – Best red – xxx.

This is my last report as your cup secretary and it has been a pleasure to fulfil the role. I trust I have done a reasonably good job during the last thirty months! I have now handed over the position to xxx and wish him every success. The next cup show is the London Championship show at the National Agricultural Centre at Stoneleigh on 13th October. It’s a new venue and there are plenty of NMC trophies to be won.
