Unfortunately, the Red Checkers have had to pull out of doing their aerial display for the 2010 Wildfoods Festival.
We wish them all the best and hopefully we can have them carving up the skies above the 2011 Wildfoods Festival.
Check out the picture of the Red Checkers flying overhead on the Festival Images page - check out the link to festival images below to see the magnificent shot taken by David Kerr.

 

Kerry's Beach Boar

Kerry Weston sent us in this great picture of a driftwood Boar that washed up on the beach by her place after some stormy weather.

If you have some interesting 'Boar' like pictures, email them in. Who knows maybe you will see your picture on the website.
