Today was the sale at Stoneleigh there were only 1 dexter cow and calf and 1 incalf cow, and very few other cattle 2 herfords, 2 Gloucester and 2 shorthorns with calfs, what was meant to be the national sale of Red Polls only had 23. This seems to be another case of Stoneleigh being unable to hold any events worth going to. Is it any wonder we dont have a Royal show in England anymore. Scotland can still have a Royal as can wales and Northern Ireland. This sale was not helped by the fact there was very little in the way of adverts, the catalogue was not online till thursday less than 48 hours before the sale.

I went last year and it was poor, this year sounds worse. Organisation is the key to an event and this one seems to be completely lacking.
