Poll: Do you go to the A&P show?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A gigantic show-stopping bull called Axle, traditional blacksmithing and farriers, and all creatures large and small entertained thousands at the region’s annual A&P show.

The sights, sounds, and the smells of all things rural returned to Claudelands Showgrounds on the weekend as the Waikato A&P Show celebrated the rural way of life.
