Whilst I stayed on the island yesterday Becky took a small team of adult creams to Edenbridge and Oxted show.
The team did us very proud by winning 1st-3rd in the breed class and then 1st & 2nd best self. Our adult sow Malibu sunrise went on to win Best in Show 🥰.

Thank you Greg Jackson for thinking so highly of her and to Sam Richardson for agreeing on the first place.

What a day Saturday was for us. Our adult PE Cream Sow Malibu Sunrise won the ESCC adult stock making her the first PE Cream to do so. Not only that she became our 3rd PE cream ESCC & NCC champion. Thank you so much Melanie David Oulton for thinking so highly of her 🥰 this really was a momento day for us both.

Our team of U/5 selfs did more than make us proud the weekend 🥰. It’s always great to see your exhibits on the table, but even better when the judge appreciates them just as you do!
Winning 1st, 2nd & 3rd best U/5 self and then to eventually be awarded the first ever BIS with a PE Cream at the NCC Young Stock show was amazing.

Thank you so much Andrew McDonnell for thinking so highly of our team😊.

Well done to Carol Payne and Don for Reserve BIS with their beautiful Sheltie. Thank you to Kathy Dudding and the team for putting on a fantastic show.

Got to love a bank holiday 🥰. After a busy few months we finally found some time have a good look at the pigs. Its always good to run through them every now and then not only because its our hobby and we enjoy it but also to see if we have missed something.in these pictures there are a mixer of show pigs and young stock that have yet to be taken to the judging table. 🤞they will continue to make up ready for our next show 😊

Thank you so much Lyndon Nowell and Julie Gallagher for these lovely photographs of our winning PE Golden boar Cheshire Prince at Doncaster and our PE Cream sow Malibu Sunrise from Worthing and Eastergate CC 🥰.

We had a lovely day at Worthing and Eastergate Cavy Club on Saturday, it was great to catch up with a few friends.
We were very pleased with how the team did, winning 1,2,3 best self and eventually 4th BIS and Best In Show with our adult PE Cream sow ‘Malibu Sunrise’.

Thank you Toni Angel for catching our reaction on camera. Bradford Small Live Stock show 2024. BEST IN SHOW Taylor & Longs Adult PE Golden boar Cheshire Prince.

05/02/2024

What an amazing weekend we have had, we still can’t quite believe it. Thank you so much to judges David Oulton and Evelyne Van Vliet for thinking so highly of our PE Golden boar and for also making our weekend a very special one.

This boar named ‘Cheshire Prince’ born early 2023 has only competed on the show table five times. We are amazed at just how well he has performed, winning his first best in show at just 4.5 months under Melanie Oulton. As an intermediate Prince went on to win the ESCC show at Real London 2023 under Greg Jackson, and reserve best intermediate self at Real london behind our own PE Cream Sow, but to win Bradford Championship show 2024 at just 11 months old we are truly speechless.

Thank you so much to everyone who congratulated us yesterday, sharing that moment with friends has made it all the more memorable.

Thank you to Kathy, Megan and the team for putting on an amazing show 👏👏.

Congratulations to all the other contenders, each and every one of you and your cavies deserved to be there, they are a credit to your hard work 🥰.

Gary and his mum Chris Davies are very pleased with the latest team of chocolates they have bred. They would still like a stronger belly colour but are very happy with how these have developed.

After a long day sorting the shed out our new pens are finally in. A good friend of ours built them, putting in a lot of thought on the construction to make our lives so much easier when cleaning out.
Safe to say we are very happy with them ☺️. Thank you Micheal Pope👌
