Camrose Vintage Working Day promises something for everyone
Running from 10am to 6pm the show will be set across three fields and the committee is promising a packed programme aimed at all the family.
Chairman Andrew James said the Gentle Giants and Friends Horses would be demonstrating and giving rides at the show for the first time.
And Towy Valley Axe Racing Team would also be demonstrating how to carve wood with axes.
Other attractions include a falconry display, steam engines and tractor and trailer rides.
There will be vintage vehicles on show, sheep shearing demonstrations and a farrier will be showing how to change shoes on horses.
The show will also host a novelty dog show.
Mr James said: "There really is something for everyone, of all ages – we'll have the bespoke tent 'Educating Pembrokeshire children' (food story) to learn where their food comes from, where parents can sit with their children in a safe zone. There will also be a bouncy castle for children, too.
"Across the field, there will be lots of interesting and different stalls, as well as a bespoke craft tent.
"Throughout the day, the main show ring will have lots of activities – including the popular vintage parade of all the vehicles and the parade of the winners of the dog show.
"This year we plan to have two children's tug-o-war contests – one in the morning and one in the afternoon. This is always a focal part of the day watching the fun that children have pulling against either a steam engine or an old tractor."
If that wasn't enough there will be silage/grass demonstrations, an auto-jumble stalls, ploughing, land dressing preparations and seeding demonstrations predominantly using vintage tractors and machinery but there will also be Shire Horses to do some ploughing too.
Mr James said: "It's incredible to think this show was started by a small group of people wanting to raise money for charities and, at the same time, wanting to demonstrate how the farming community had to make crops for the winter months to feed all the animals.
"All of the money, made on the day, gets shared out to local charities and, to date, the committee has raised and donated more than £265,000."
This year the main show sponsored is Prichard Holdings Ltd.

Famous Sheffield club has been gutted in act of ‘wanton destruction', says owner
The owners of the building which housed Sheffield's famous Leadmill music venue say they have found a scene of 'wanton destruction' as they took possession after a bitter eviction battle. Electric Group said it moved in to the premises on Wednesday evening, weeks after it was successful in its long legal battle against the operators of The Leadmill. In a statement, the firm said: 'The Leadmill, one of Sheffield's most iconic music venues, has been returned to its owners in a wrecked state – stripped of fixtures, vandalised, and left wide open to the elements. 'Electric Group, which took possession of the building late on Wednesday evening, were met with a scene of destruction, even the front doors had been taken.' It said: 'The stage where world-famous bands once performed has been ripped out, the sprung dancefloor torn up, bars and lighting removed, and the venue stripped back to bare brickwork.' It said the reusable materials have been 'all dumped rather than being recycled, reused, or donated to community projects'. The firm also criticised attempts which have been made to remove a well-known Mike Disley frieze sculpture from the frontage of the building – which has been halted by Sheffield City Council. Electric Group co-founder Dominic Madden said: 'It's devastating to see the building like this. It's so important to people.' He said: 'Stepping into this building and seeing the wanton destruction that has taken place is the sum of all my fears. 'What has happened these last few weeks behind closed doors is devastating, how anybody can do so much damage is beyond belief. 'We knew they'd take their belongings, but we also thought they valued this place. Their treatment of it proves otherwise.' Mr Madden said he was now 'even more determined to do whatever it takes' to re-open the building as the Electric Sheffield music venue in February 2026. The existing Leadmill venue closed at the end of June, with a final gig by indie favourite Miles Kane, after losing a long-running eviction battle with Electric Group. After it lost an appeal in May, The Leadmill described the decision as a 'heartbreaking moment not just for our team but for the entire Sheffield community' which 'feels like a betrayal of the cultural fabric of our city'. The appeal ruling came three months after a judge ruled in favour of Electric Group, which owns the building and runs Electric Brixton in London plus venues in Bristol and Newcastle. The Leadmill opened its doors 45 years ago and played host to countless bands including Pulp, Coldplay, Arcade Fire, Muse, Oasis, Stone Roses, The White Stripes, Jorja Smith and Michael Kiwanuka. A plaque on the building marked Pulp's first gig, which was at the venue in August 1980. Ian Lawlor, general manager of the Leadmill Ltd, told the Sheffield Star they had been open with Electric Group about their plans to remove their belongings, adding that 'any claims by them on the contrary is just fiction to make us look like the bad guys'.

Wayne Rooney says he was 'very disappointed' after Tom Brady questioned work ethic: 'It was very unfair'
Former Birmingham City manager Wayne Rooney isn't pleased with Tom Brady after the former New England Patriots great questioned Rooney's work ethic in a documentary. Rooney said he was "very disappointed" by Brady's comments, which Rooney called "very unfair," according to The Athletic. The whole controversy started after Brady expressed concerns about Rooney during the "Built in Birmingham: Brady & the Blues" docuseries on Amazon Prime. The program, which aired Aug. 1, followed the Birmingham City Football Club after Brady joined the club as a minority owner in 2023. During an episode of the series, Brady called out Rooney's work ethic, saying, "'I'm a little worried about our head coach's work ethic,." He later added, 'I mean, I don't know, I don't have great instincts on that.' Rooney pushed back on that criticism on his podcast, saying Brady's comments were "unfair," per The Athletic. 'I saw that last week from Tom Brady. I think it was a very unfair comment. 'I think Tom came in once, which was the day before a game where the days are a little bit lighter anyway, and I don't think he really understood football that well. But what he does understand is, he's a hard worker, we know that.' 'Football is not the NFL. NFL works for three months a year. Players do need rest as well, so I think it was very unfair, the way he's come out and portrayed that.' Brady won out in the end. Rooney was fired after just 15 matches. Birmingham City turned in one of its worst seasons, and was relegated to League One. While Rooney was upset about the comments, he was careful not to rip Brady. In addition to calling Brady a "hard worker," Rooney said he has "respect" for Brady. Rooney also called Brady "one of the greatest, if not the greatest athlete of all time." Rooney also delivered an all-time out-of-context quote about Brady, saying, "I don't think he really understood football that well." Rooney was obviously using the term "football" to mean soccer, but it's still a funny thing to read about Brady. Birmingham City bounced back quickly after showing Rooney the door. The team broke the record for most points scored in League One the following season and earned a promotion. Rooney was hired by Plymouth Argyle in May of 2024. His tenure with the club lasted just a few months. With the team in last place, Rooney and Plymouth Argyle agreed to mutually split in December. Rooney, considered one of the greatest soccer players of his era, has not been hired by another club since leaving Plymouth Argyle.

Second MasterChef contestant edited out of new series after presenters sacked
A second MasterChef contestant has been edited out of the current BBC One series, which has faced controversy and seen both presenters dropped from their roles. It was previously announced that Sarah Shafi had been removed from the show after asking for it not to be broadcast, following a report that upheld claims against hosts Gregg Wallace and John Torode. A spokesperson for the show's production company, Banijay UK, said: 'One other contributor decided that, given recent events, they would like not to be included. We have, of course, accepted their wishes and edited them out of the show.' Both Wallace and Torode remain in the series, which began last week on BBC One and on iPlayer. In November 2024, it was announced that Wallace would step away from his role on the BBC cooking show while historical allegations of misconduct were investigated, and last month a statement from Banijay UK and the BBC said they had agreed 'Mr Wallace's return to MasterChef is untenable'. Wallace, 60, issued an apology saying he was 'deeply sorry for any distress caused' and that he 'never set out to harm or humiliate' in the wake of the Lewis Silkin review, which saw 45 out of 83 allegations made against him upheld. Torode, 60, was the subject of an allegation about using racist language that was upheld as part of the review, but the TV star said he had 'no recollection of the incident' and was 'shocked and saddened' by the claim. The PA news agency understands the second contestant to be edited out of the show has asked not to be identified and will not feature in the show. The episode which would have featured the individual was broadcast on BBC One on Wednesday night, but the programme featured only five chefs rather than the usual six. Last month, the BBC confirmed the series, which was filmed last year before allegations against Wallace and Torode were upheld, would be broadcast in August, adding that it had 'not been an easy decision in the circumstances.' It added: 'In showing the series, which was filmed last year, it in no way diminishes our view of the seriousness of the upheld findings against both presenters. We have been very clear on the standards of behaviour that we expect of those who work at the BBC or on shows made for the BBC. 'However, we believe that broadcasting this series is the right thing to do for these cooks who have given so much to the process. We want them to be properly recognised and give the audience the choice to watch the series. 'At this stage, we have not taken a decision on the celebrity series and Christmas special, which was filmed earlier this year, and we will confirm our plans later in the year.' In an interview with The Sun last month, Wallace apologised to anyone hurt by his behaviour but insisted he is 'not a groper, a sex pest or a flasher'. Torode and Wallace became MasterChef co-hosts in 2005 and celebrated the shows 20th anniversary at a dinner in 2024, which Wallace said was 'one of the most emotional evenings' of his life. MasterChef series 21 next airs at 8pm on BBC One.
