Northern Longhorn Breeders' Showing Workshop
Location: Newton Farm, Huby, YorkshireThe Northern Longhorn Breeders' Group organised a showing workshop on Sunday 1 May 2016.
A less than hoped for turnout but with the weather being as it had in early spring and everyone behind on work it not too surprising. With no cows turned out as yet we made the best of what we had and had to move indoors as once again it rained. The demonstrations where carried out by Jim Courts of Thirsk who demonstrated clipping and dressing of a Longhorn senior heifer in preparation for the show or sale ring, followed by members having a go themselves. Jim selected and judged four cows for a stock judging competition and all members had a go - nobody totally agreed with Jim but the closest was James Emsley. After lunch two heifers were led into a show ring as Jim explained what a judge was looking for and how animal and handler should behave. A big thank you to Jim for his knowledge and advice and everyone went home with something to think about!! Graham Walker Northern Breeders' Group Chairman.

Location: Southfield Farm, Fieldhead Lane, Drighlington, BradfordThe Society organised a Technical Day for all members on Sunday 8 May.
The Society's first Technical Day was held at David and Angela Blockley's Fieldhead Farm, Drighlington, Bradford on a gloriously sunny Sunday.
