Alison Shaw skirting fleeces at the Tambo Stock Show wether trial shearing.
Transcript
00:00What is it about the Tambo Weather Trial that you like?
00:02Oh, it's a great event because, well, you get to see and handle some wool.
00:07I mean, I used to be a woolcaster and now this is the only time of the year that I
00:10can handle wool.
00:12But they're beautiful fleeces and the weather tile's really great for the show
00:16because it really underpins the finances of the show.
00:20Does it feel good to get your hands on a few fleeces again?
00:22Absolutely. Absolutely.
00:25And still being able to bend down and pick them up's good too.
00:29What about the wool industry in general here?
00:31Back from the days when I was classing, you know, there were so many properties
00:35and then we had the wool crash and, of course, so many went out and the wild dog.
00:40But there's not many places around here now that actually run sheep,
00:44which is a shame because, personally, I love marine a lot and it's a fabulous fire.
