Letter: County Show is on wrong day

I want to convey my disappointment that again the County Show is being held on just a Saturday. This after, what I've heard, is the worry about the number of people attending last year when it moved to a Saturday only.

Before this myself, wife and a number of friends who had come over to visit especially to go to the show when it happened on a Sunday. I own a shop in Shrewsbury and have to open on a Saturday so can't now go.

A number of friends and people who I've spoken to also find Saturday inconvenient and don't now attend.

A lot of people find that a Saturday doesn't fit in with their lives today and Sunday is always a great day to go out, spend the day enjoying yourself and relaxing.

This is a real shame. I feel if this Saturday only is the way they are going to go then it will be the end of the County Show in the coming years.
