Burry Port delivery firm Celtic Couriers is helping to sponsor a prestigious vintage show in Carmarthen.

The Orllwyn Teifi 24th Vintage Show is taking place at the United Counties Showground in Nantyci, Carmarthen, between August 24 and 27.
Celtic Couriers general manager Gareth Jenkins said: "We are delighted to be lending our support to the show. It is a major attraction in South West Wales and should pull in bumper crowds over the Bank Holiday weekend."
Orllwyn Teifi Vintage Show started in 1989.
At first, it was held on the Kings Meadow at Henllan, but soon outgrew this 20-acre site.
It then moved to Croesllan, Llandysul and took up nearly 115 acres!
In its 24th year, the show moves to the United Counties Showground in Carmarthen, giving easier access to many supporters who live in South Wales.
The show attracts exhibitors from all over the country and many famous "names" have attended over the last 18 years.
The late Fred Dibnah, of Television fame, and the "Iron Maiden", the engine that starred in the film of the same name, to name but two.
The show is organised and run purely by volunteers and it is due to their hard work and enthusiasm that this show has been such a great success.
It has raised more than 111,000 for local deserving causes, which is a demonstration of the support it has had from many thousands of people who come to see it each year from all over the country.
