The ploughing match
Serious stuff here! I haven't a clue how these things are judged - but after ploughing a length of furrow the ploughmen would dismount and get measures and poles and things out in order to mark out the next line. Most of the machinery seemed to be in the vintage classes - perhaps the modern kit uses satellites or something to ensure perfect accuracy. Fascinating to watch though.
