Last Saturday was our annual country show. It was a cold, wet day but there was still a large crowd there.
The show has the usual displays of prize-winning sheep and poultry, sheep dog trials, large art and craft pavillion, horse show ring events, Miss Showgirl competition and side-show alley. However it is a little bit different to other shows in our area.
Because Ganmain is known as the "haystack" capital of Australia, the show holds a haystack building event. Ganmain is also renowned for their famous meat pies, so there is a contest to see who can eat 3 pies in the shortest time. Our friend Farmer Jason has won the event the last 2 years in a row!!
Emma was asked to entertain the crowd for an hour or so before the fireworks display started. She was perched up on a truck trailer protected from the wind and rain, which was much better than us freezing our bums off!
