Paula Hynes: The Royal Highland, a field evening and a farmyard loss

It is always great to experience overseas shows, but the days are long so the trips are far from a holiday, writes Paula Hynes

Georgie Hynes competing in the Jersey classes at the Royal Highland Show in Edinburgh.

The Royal Highland was such an amazing show although quite tiring. We had the late flight out of Cork Airport on Thursday night, which was delayed, so we arrived weary at our hotel at 2am, with an early start on Friday morning. 

We had to arrive at the show at 6am as Georgie was toplining the Jerseys for Katherine Jenkinson, who Georgie is in partnership with.
