Prudhoe Community Band entertained an enthusiastic audience at this years prestigious Northumberland County Show held at its new home in the grounds of Bywell Hall for the second year.

The previous two days of torrential rain made access tricky with many vehicles getting stuck in the mud early in the day. Luckily the majority of farmers in Northumberland, some with very large tractors indeed were on site to pull everyone out.

We were situated between the funfair and the Cumberland Wrestling ring on a small oasis of dry ground surrounded by mud, and the weather held fair for the day.

Thanks to Gaynor Shotton, Secretary of Tynedale Agricultural Society for inviting us, we had a lovely day.
