The Irish show season for dairy cattle kicked off last weekend in Virginia, Co Cavan, for the Emerald Expo. Pete had taken the girls there showing last year, and they had a really successful show, so we decided to enter a few again this year.

Although the show wasn’t on until Saturday, we left early on Thursday. Rathard Kasey was part of our team, and it was her first show as a milker, so we wanted to allow her ample time to settle in and relax.
