OK Sydney-siders Who has been??

The rodeo was AWESOME! Main arena, its about time! And the Xtreme Korruption show wasn't bad, loved the Stormrider/Roughrider standoff

Took oodles of grand parade piccies This is the better of them


The 6-Bar (I think thats Vicki Roycroft, she bombed out in round 2)


The Carlton Clydesdales... or their vehicle anyhoo. I thought they'd sold up, but here they are!


So c'mon, anyone else go? Share your piccies!

You went to the show? Good for you Calla. That is SO your type of outing. Livestock and arts and crafts. Hope you had a good old rest up before going and an easy day the next day to recover.

I can see the lights of the ferris wheel from my neighbourhood. But didn't get any closer than that.

Have any of the requisite show foods?

fairy floss
dagwood dogs
cheese on a stick
fresh orange juice
burgers (Aussie style! pineapple, beetroot, egg!)

We had two MEGA freshly squeezed lemonades

There was large and mega.... They are obviously a bit dense in regard to the whole sequencing of food sizes. 2 sizes, one big, one small, surely thats small and large??

I was looking for corn on the cob, slathered in butter and salt, but I couldn't find the stand. We ended up with fresh chicken burgers for dinner. By fresh, i think they meant 'not decaying' or something, as they were in little plastic bags that had been microwaved

I went on the showbag run, and got the Madura Tea showbag (great value, but can anyone say housewife? ) and the A little luxury bag I wanted feathered wings, but where would I wear them?

Oh, and a bag of lavendar boiled lollies they are yummy! I have to find a recipe for lavendar coconut ice too, that looked delish!

mmmm ... Lavender boiled lollies ... does that mean lavender as in colour or in flavour ... either way, sounds delightful.

Here in Perth our show is at the beginning of Spring ... better start saving now, its soooooo expensive!

Thanks for sharing those great pics BTW.

Cheers
