year. I am particularly looking forward to seeing the Knights of Middle England perform in the grand arena. We have more trade stands this year, approaching 300 and I hope to get round to see as many as I can, The Moreton Show has a team of dedicated trustees and volunteers and I am very happy to be part of this amazing team and I know this years show will be bigger and better than ever.
AM very much looking forward to the show this year. In the past I have been involved with the show through my connections with past chairman Nickki Eden and through my work

ISTENERS to North Cotswold Community Radio will be treated to a live broadcast during the show this year. The station will be broadcasting live on 87.7FM until Saturday and listeners will be able to listen live between 8am and 10pm each day. The broadcasts will feature all the latest news about the people and businesses taking part in the show and on the day NCCR presenters will be speaking to show-goers and exhibitors. The latest traffic information will be available and show-goers can visit the presenters on their battle bus. Robb Eden, NCCR chairman, is looking forward to the broadcast after the success of the first live broadcast during the show last year. He said: Its always good to broadcast to a bigger audience, especially on FM. We have lots of listeners overseas including ex-pats. The Moreton Show is an important event. It gives us the opportunity to promote the Cotswolds and to become involved in this wonderful event.
Chairmans message
society chairman. I would like to thank all of you who are attending the show this year. Your enjoyment of the day makes all the time and effort that so many put into the event worthwhile. My thanks also extend
to all of my fellow committee members, volunteers, stewards and judges for all of the time and effort they also invest. It is hard to believe how few paid staff we have without our volunteers we could not exist. I look forward to seeing you at Moreton Show and I also look forward to the 2012 show which will be our 60th. During the present economic climate we all have to spend our money wisely. This is a wise investment, it is incredible how much fun can be fitted into one day here at Moreton Show. Come to the show and go home with happy memories.

Moreton-in-Marsh Show
This years show president is Simon Keswick, of Stow, who told Gerry Barnett how he got involved
Presidents message
He is full of praise for the society and Moreton
Show. I personally think they are wonderful institutions and a very important focal point for the rural population and to help people from the towns to understand much of what is involved in the agricultural industry. And, of course, it is very educational. Mr Keswick said he was pleased that show officials were this year making a big effort to get more youngsters involved on show day. Looking to the future, Mr Keswick said he did not believe in revolution
but rather in evolution. So we should be looking towards what our stakeholders want and adapt without being too radical. He said: I hope Moreton Show continues for many years to come. I personally believe farming has got some good years ahead of it and so hopefully people will want to go on supporting it. I am very much looking forward to the show and seeing the best of what all our exhibitors have to offer.

of which are registered as pedigree with a view to sales of breeding stock. Winter wheat, winter oil seed rape and spring linseed are grown on the arable area. Conservation is an important feature of the
farm, which is in Natural Englands Entry Level and Higher Level Stewardship Schemes. There are long-established beetle banks, conservation margins and hundreds of trees have been planted since they took on the tenancy on All Fools Day, 1996, the day the BSE crisis broke. The farm is home to six rare breeds of birds and the source of the River Leach. Commenting on the family success, Mr Fisher said: These competitions sharpen the edge of progressive farming and keep us all on our toes. Guiting Manor Farms Ltd is managed by Nick Bumford and farms as arms length tenants of Guiting Manor Amenity Trust. The estate comprises some 1.600 acres of which 1,200 are arable and the remainder sheep maintained, species rich, limestone grassland and
both newly created and seminatural woods. Cropping is about one third each of winter wheat, oil seed rape and barley, the barley split between winter and spring varieties. The farm is also in the Higher Level Stewardship Scheme and is heavily involved with the Farming and Wildlife Advisory Group. Pollen and nectar boundaries have been created round most of the woodlands, together with wild grass field corners and birds are important here, too, the farm being monitored by the RSPB and the British Trust for Ornithology. Moreton Shows Champion Farm Competition puts the winners of the first three size groups in the first round against the size group winners from the previous year to produce an overall champion and reserve.

months of preparation to get each sheep to look at its best, said Angela Reid, of the Cotswold Sheep Society. The champion will be the product of not only months of nurturing but also of generations of careful breeding. In a rare breed such as the Cotswold, the number of bloodlines are limited. The result is it takes years of experience and many hours of studying the Society Flock Book to find that perfect combination of ewe and ram. The Cotswold Sheep Society stand will be alongside the Cotswold sheep show ring. There will be experts on hand all day to answer any questions. There will be merchandise, too, a range of beautiful postcards and notelets, sold to raise funds to help secure the future of this historic, but endangered, breed. Please do come and see for yourself, said Mrs Reid.

RIGIT Strawbridge is running the Education Centre in Moreton Shows new Green Area. Gerry Barnett met up with her judging allotments at Bourton when she was looking forward to the show. I am so excited to have been invited by the Moreton Show to run the Education Centre in their new Green Area this year not least because Ill be based in a beautiful Bedouin Tent complete with rugs and cushions
LLOTMENT sites were praised by judges who spent a day in the rain looking at town and village sites. We saw some very good examples of community spirit and they were all worthy of commendation, said Brigit Strawbridge, who was joined on the judging panel by Rachel Harwood, of Harwood Horticulture, and Gerry Barnett, of the Journal. When we came to tot up our marks at the end of the tour it was all very close. Piece Hedge, Bourton, came out on top, with Little Rissington second and Evenlode Lane, Moreton, third.

Worcestershire. The last of these no longer extends much beyond Fish Hill in Broadway, but before local authorities were reorganised in the last century there was a small island of Worcestershire just outside town. The point at which these four counties met can be seen at the Four Shires Stone, which stands by the A44 a few miles out of town towards Chipping Norton. This monument for many years graced the front page of this newspapers earlier incarnation The Four Shires Advertiser. The town also sits on the crossroads of two major routes, the A44 and the Fosseway. This unique position enjoyed by the town has guaranteed that it has always been a major hub of trade of commerce. To this day, every Tuesday, it hosts one of the biggest street markets for miles around, and its picturesque High Street maintains an enviable range of independent shops. In fact, some say that if you cant find it in Moreton, then it aint worth having.
eveshamjournal.co.uk
Moretons bustling High Street is always worth a visit. Within a few yards its possible to find everything from a cheese shop to an art gallery, with much more in between. There are also many places to eat, drink and relax.

Rents continue to rise to 705 per month
AFTER the sixth consecutive month of rent rises, private sector tenants have seen rents increase by 4.2% in the past year and now pay an average 705 per month, says a survey. But the latest buy-to-let index from LSL Property Services, which owns the UKs largest lettings agent network including Your Move and Reeds Rains, says many landlords are seeing the capital value of their homes fall, as rental income rises. In July, the average private sector rent in England and Wales rose 0.6% to 705 per month, surpassing the previous high of 701 in June. With annual inflation at 4.2%, the average rent is now 29 per month higher than July 2010. London hit a new high of 1,009 per month in July, an annual increase of 7.1%. T he next biggest rises were in the North East (5.5%), followed by East and West Midlands (4.8%). David Newnes, estate agency managing director of LSL Property Services, said: Demand from frustrated buyers each month is underpinning buoyant competition for rental homes, enabling landlords to increase prices.
