all the hard work that goes in to put on these show only to be ruined by the weather i trust all those who got hurt are ok including the animals.

with what we have had this winter especially down west and it chucks it down again and ruins the show. whats next locusts still have a job to find anything to eat as was under water.

lets hope other county shows go on ok without the weather ruining it.

Only info I have seen was here BBC News - Safety concerns cancel Devon County Show's final day

 

Key bit's at the end

 

" Earlier in the day, five vehicles and a pedestrian were involved in a collision which was unrelated to the show's rain problems, a show spokesperson said.

 

The collision occurred in a car park by the Westpoint showground's Blue Gate at about 14:05 BST.

 

The pedestrian, believed to be a man in his 70s, was taken to the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital with what police initially said were serious injuries, but they turned out not to be so.

 

One male driver who sustained facial injuries in the collision was also taken to hospital and one other person was described as walking wounded.

 

Two horseboxes were damaged, leaving two animals trapped. One horse had to be sedated while it was rescued, police said."
