The prestigious (or should that be pretentious??!!) Potton show took place the weekend of the 9th/10th September. The ever diligent people of Potton (and surrounding villages) competing in the various classes and categories from heaviest onion, to most pointed carrot, most delicious rock cakes (men only), to best animal made from fruit and veg . . . and the list continued (150 classes in all!!). The entrance fee was a steep 20p per item, but we pushed all thought of our dwindling bank balance aside and I entered 4 of the photographic classes and Beth 2 of the Under 5 categories.
Well what a result... I got third for my sunset photo (50p prize money!) and Beth not only first place in 'picture any subject/any media' (£1 prize!) but also 'Outstanding Exhibit' out of all the Under 5 classes - we were well proud!!
Beth really had no idea what was going on and wouldn’t even collect her ‘cup’….. the reality sunk in when we used her winnings to purchase a BigCookLittleCook DVD – oh yes now all we hear about is her (watching) her prize!
