#### The Three Counties Autumn Agricultural Show 2006

Called the three counties because it primarily serves the English counties of Worcestershire, Gloucestershire and Herefordshire.

The very large agricultural show is held at Malvern in Worcestershire on the border with the other two counties.

### The Annual Competition of Cheese Rolling

Held at various places, the most famous being at Cooper's Hill, Brockworth, which is just off the A46 Cheltenham to Stroud road.

Competitors sit on the edge of a steep slope, waiting for the guest roller to release a 7lb Double Gloucester cheese on the count of the Master of Ceremonies. They then race down the hill chasing after it - the first person down the hill wins it. The hill in parts approaches a one-in-one gradient guaranteeing a 'topsy-turvy' descent.
