Royal Welsh Show 2008
Due to Bluetongue restrictions
there were fewer cattle exhibited than in previous years and it meant
an all Welsh line-up with, unfortunately, several Welsh herds also
unable to compete. This did not affect the high standard however and
the judge, Jim Barber, was happy to compliment everyone on the quality
of the British Blue cattle shown in 2008.
The Supreme and Female Champion was Lukeroyal Bimbo owned and exhibited
by Adrian Williams. This was amazing success for Adrian, who was
showing his heifer for the first time. She is a November 06 daughter
of Twyning Ash Vaughan out of Lukeroyal Valentine.

highest place junior female was Ty Isaf Cointreau. Bred and exhibited
by Wynne & Linda Morgan she is a March 07 daughter of Danseur
D’Embise out of Ty Isaf Rhiwelen . She was shown by Sabrina
Morgan who went on to gain 4th place in the Marks & Spencer Young
Handler competition

Junior Male and Male Champion was Henlli Casanova, a son of Baron
du Bois Bauloye out of Bringlee Sandy. Casanova was also Reserve
Champion Marks & Spencer Junior Elite Bull. This highlighted
a very successful show for Geraint Williams’ Henlli herd

The presentation of the trophies was made at the enjoyable Monday
evening BBQ held at the British Blue stand. This was followed by
Rhys Bellis, Club Vice Chairman presenting a surprised Linda Morgan
with a British Blue cow and calf figurine in recognition of her years
of hard work and dedication as Club Secretary. The prize tickets
were then drawn for the raffle, which had been held during the evening
and finally an auction for two remaining dishes of trifle and a bowl
of cream! We would like to thank everyone who took part in the raffle
and auction and hopefully a good time was had by everybody present.
