Sutherland County Show

 
The sun was shining, the birds singing, the burgers sizzling on Saturday at the Sutherland County Show. Jennifer Irvine and I set up shop in the Industrial Tent and barely had time to slope off for a coffee in between meeting clients old and new. 

We did manage to spend a few enjoyable moments watching Mike Ellis from Helmsdale Coppicing and Charcoal offload his brand new charcoal burner.  Also, in our marquee, there was Lyn Wells from Artful Creatures, the much-travelled jewellers,  David & Tess Wilson (look out for their new website soon), and Judi Sutherland from Dornoch Leisure.


Sian Curley, (with cute daughter Florence),  of Sugar & Spice bakery, Elphin  was one of the attractions in the Taste of Sutherland tent along with a fantastic selection of North Highland Food producers.

The event was brilliantly organised and thanks to the Committee for helping make our first Sutherland Show such a successful one.
