James triumphs at wellie throwing comp

A wellie throwing competition staged at Harry McGaffin’s Blackberry Hill Farm in Gilford as part of the Bank of Ireland Open Farm Weekend was won by James Girvan from Moira.

It could be said that James has wellie throwing down to a fine art as his prize for winning was a limited edition print by local artist, Tanja Shields.

James was able to choose from a selection of prints which included line drawings and watercolours of various animals.

For James, who has just recently started keeping Oxford Sandy and Black Pigs, it had to be a limited edition print of a pig.
