YP Letters: A grand day out at the show made us proud
The Great Yorkshire Show was brilliant this year. We set off at 7.30am and left at 5pm. So you can tell we were not bored.
We so enjoyed the fashion show which showed much more wearable clothes and lots of modern tweed designs. My favorite was a fabulous long mixed tweed ball gown – fabulous.

The main arena showed off prime cattle of a high standard and lots of well behaved small calves, very impressive.
My favorite part, however, was the stunt riders, Atkinson Action Horses of Howden.
I had no idea that these farmers were responsible for training horses and providing stunt doubles for my favorite TV programme, Poldark.

It was definitely the highlight of my day. Atkinson have appeared on many other TV shows such as Victoria as well as films.
The weather was superb on Wednesday the day we went to the show. It was definitely the best one I have experienced and, may I say, it made you proud to be from Yorkshire.
