Generally, they are participating in the sheep shearing competition and it is always good to see the enthusiasm and energy they generate among the audience. They are worthy opponents and a good advertisement for the Falkland Island's people. If any readers know of any Islanders that will be attending the show, then please pass on the invitation to register at the International Pavilion where they will enjoy a dedicated lounge with refreshments and free wifi.
