The demonstrations and special events at the ISDS World Sheep Dog Trials, 2005
Our cameras worked hard to capture all of the different goings on at this
event. It wasn’t just the World Sheep Dog Trials, it was also a country fair with many different
attractions.
Over the 4 days of the World Sheep Dog trial, there were some special events put on by the
World Trails committee for the handlers and the spectators. On the Thursday there was the Ceili
Mor and World Trial BBQ on the Estate. This was a lovely meal and some traditional toe-tapping
music joined by some dancers to cap it all off. It was an eventful evening when Tommy Wilson
started to show us all up on the dance floor, soon afterwards to be then replaced by the local
tap dancers that were also very impressive.
On the second night, we were invited to the Gala dinner where we were introduced to Ireland
at it’s finest. The dinner was held in the beautiful Bridge House Hotel, where we were then
served a 5-course meal, and got to talk with the handlers and other organizers. It was a very
nice evening.
