Welcome to the 2015 Glanton Show We are so lucky to have a show venue which sits on an elevated site with mag-nificent views across the valley providing a fabulous backdrop to the events and entertainments on offer; it literally adds an extra dimension to the show.
We are a registered charity, and our remit includes an educational role, so you will always find interesting and informative exhibitors ready to tell you about their many and varied enthusiasms, ranging from beekeeping, small-holdings, lamas, to heavy horses and this year even bugs and insects.
Our main event will be an exhibition by the Milfield Heavy Horse Associa-tion, they will bring along some of these amazing and very attractive horses and talk about their history, breeding and their place in our technological age.
We also hope to have our regular visit from the hounds of the West Percy Hunt which is always so popular with the children who can get up close and personal with these wonderful animals and hear about their life and welfare from the Master of Hounds.
The companion dog show will be as close-fought as ever, and speaking of fighting the Terrier Racing will be hilarious uncontrolled mayhem as usual.
Last year we had a near-record level of entries in the exhibitors’ tent, and this year we hope to push that to a new high, there are some new classes as well as the old favourites, so have a good read of the schedule and start work on something to enter. Everyone can do something even if it is just to make up a limerick – that is the class I normally enter!
All this plus trade stands, Geoff Allen’s hot and cold food and bar, Ice Cream from Morwick and many other attractions and distractions, and all to the mellifluous background of music from the Alnwick Playhouse Band.
Where else would you want to be on Saturday 8th August?
Jon Radgick, Chairman
Something for everyone – we look forward to seeing you on August 8th
If you would like to have a stand at the show contact Mike Paice on 01665 578 809

Have a go - enter something for the show!
• There’s something for everyone in Glanton show, so have a look
through and see which classes you would like to enter. Everyone takes
photos - so why not enter one? And remember, all entries are free!
• Fill in the entry form on page 23 with the classes you want to enter
and your details, then cut it out and post it to the secretary, drop it
in through her letterbox, or put in the box in Glanton Post Office.
Make sure its there by August 5th!
• Get ready for show day by sorting out your entries and putting class
number labels on each one. Children’s entries need their age as well -
but no names (see page 13).
• Show day is here! Get to the show ground early (it is open at 8.00
am) and look for the secretary’s caravan, where you can collect your
personal entry numbers.
• Put one of your I.D. numbers on each of your exhibits - it doesn’t
matter which goes on which.
• Put each exhibit in the right class area in the marquee.
• Prize money has to be claimed after the presentation of the main
prizes from the secretary’s office (i.e. the caravan!)
• And finally . . . .
GOOD LUCK!

FLOWERS
Aim for flowers that are fresh and in peak condition, with no dam-age or blemishes. Groups need to be as uniform as possible in size, shape and colour. And don’t forget, arrangement is always important in flower displays.
With roses you want strong stems that are in proportion to the blooms, and flower heads that are not touching.
Pansies, buttonholes and sprays look much better if presented on a dis-play board.

TOP TIPS - COOKERY SECTION ♦ Read the schedule carefully. If a number of items or size is specified then stick to it. ♦ Bread should be made 24 hours before judging. ♦ Don’t use commercial tin liners - show more skill by lining your own
tins. ♦ There should not be any cooling tray marks on the top of the cakes. ♦ Savoury scones should be cut out using a plain cutter and can be
glazed with egg or milk. A fluted cutter is used for sweet scones. These are not glazed.
♦ A biscuit is normally rolled and cut out. ♦ A cake or round of shortbread should be approx. 12mm (1/2 inch
thick). ♦ Pieces of tray bake should be of an even size and shape with all four
sides being cut sides. ♦ Pastry should be of an even thickness, evenly baked and if it is a tart
or flan then the underneath should not be underdone. ♦ Jars and lids used for preserves should be plain, with no trademarks
or names on them, as these contravene the Trade Description Act. ♦ If cellophane covers are used they also need a well fitting wax disc on
top of the preserve. ♦ If twist tops are used these they should be new and do not need a wax
disc.

VEGETABLES
They need to be clean, and to be fresh and tender. They should be unblemished, and have a good colour. Size isn’t the most important thing - quality comes first. Groups need to be uniform in size, shape and colour.
Peas and beans are better if presented on a background like a doily. Leave the bloom on the peas, and choose ones that are full and deep green. With beans look for straight, tender pods with no outward sign of the seeds.
With onions go for firm, mature bulbs with thin necks.
The best tomatoes are firm, ripe and richly coloured. Choose round medium-sized fruits with their calyces attached.
Cabbages should be nice and fresh with a good shape and a solid heart. Trim them to one outside leaf.
Collections of vegetables look better against a black background.
