• @Elscodobermann:

    Im my own worst enemy though - it will take us about 6.5 hrs to drive down(plus stops), but i am NEVER late for anything - always at least an hour early - so i suppose we could have an extra hour in bed - aint going to happen though!

    Will be in a celebratory mood anyway - dont know if you remember i mentioned we were being made redundant - well a london broker we work closely with heard of what was happening, and has asked me and a colleague to open up their first Scottish office for them! So have been busy packing up files today - open up the new office on Monday. Tilly can rest easily now.

    I am exactly the same and end up stringing out journeys with frequent stops so we do not get there ridiculously early.

    Yes I do remember you mentioning your job situation and we were keeping our fingers crossed for you. Congratulations regarding the new job!!! We are so pleased for you,:D it must be a huge weight lifted. I am a Local Government Officer so I expect I will be facing the same in the future. The Government are talking about slashing and burning regarding public finances! It would be terrible to be forced to stop showing because of redundancy.

    See Saturday.

    Steve.

    Glad you are ok on the job front must have been a scary.

    I'm dreading the job hunting thing when I move back to Perth:( I have been offered the chance of working where I did before I moved away but will be in a lower position than I was, so will be working under people that I use to be above, don't think i' can do it.


  • @Elscodobermann:

    Theresa are you mad!!? Any further than a 4 hour drive each way and we always stay over - even with shared driving i find it a bit much. See you down there, and best of luck to everybody.

    yes we are mad, but as Brian drives for a living, he's quite able to cope for a special show. Wouldn't want to do it very often though.

  • @moetmum:

    Theresa you are going to have to come and say hello to me, I must see what this crazy woman looks like!

    If I go to Scotland I stay two nights!

    See you all there!

    Moetmum,

    I will try to get over to say hello to you if someone directs me. Still know very few folk.

    Theresa


  • @Maya:

    Good luck to all at Darlington, we're not doing that one this year.

    We are at BCoGB, though i cant find my schedule! Anyone know where a downloadable one is??

    In addition to Steves info, you will need to bring something to stand your crate on, mat or blanket or something as we are not allowed to put them directly onto the floor!


  • Thanks all!

    Think we're sorted! Hopefully see you all there πŸ™‚


  • How did everyone do yesterday then??


  • We did really badly, last in our two classes. The main placings are on Sally’s web Site.

    I sure the others will let you know how they got on, but well done Theresa re 1st Junior Dog with Milo, Julie 1st Minor Puppy Bitch with Tegan, Jess 1st Junior Bitch & Post Grad with Maya.

    That's a pity Steve:(

    Well done to the others:D


  • Sorry I forgot Scott 1st Limit Bitch with Tilly. Well done!


  • @JISGARD:

    Sorry I forgot Scott 1st Limit Bitch with Tilly. Well done!

    Well done Scott and Tilly:D

    Seems like forum members have had a good day then:D


  • Well done to all the other winners as well. Tilly won 1st Limit bitch and 1st Not Bred By Exh - so we have won enough food for a few months.

    It was a great day i thought, the weather stayed just perfect - and i enjoyed the parade of champions - it was good to see some of the dogs i have only seen in pedigrees. Does anyone know how the elderly gentlemen who took ill (think it was Monty Bowers) was - did he get taken to hospital?


  • Oh no I hope Monty is ok:(


  • @basi:

    Oh no I hope Monty is ok:(

    Monty was taken to hospital, I was told he seemed a little better by the time they got him there, I haven't heard any more since as I have been at work today.


  • We had a lovely day. Managed to speak to some more folks from the forum at last! It was a lovely day. A shame about the gent who took ill, haven't any idea how he got on.
    Thanks to everyone who made us feel welcome. Steve it was nice to say hello, Poppy is lovely no matter what the results were yesterday. Well done to everyone else.

    Theresa

    That's good news then, hopefully he is better now.


  • Well done Theresa and Milo, Julie and Tegan, Jess and Maya, Scott and Tilly.
    Steve sorry you didn't have a good day with Poppy 😞
    Wish we could have gone i feel i haven't seen people for ages and of course not had my Basenji fix.


  • @basi:

    Oh no I hope Monty is ok:(

    Monty is doing OK, will be in hospital for a few days, Em stayed with Bunty all last night, she really is a lovely girl.


  • @moetmum:

    That is good news, poor Bunty and that was nice of Em to stay with her. Do we know why he was taken ill?? I know that he is getting on in years bless him.


  • It was thought to be either a diabetic coma or possibly a stroke. It was very hot and Bunty was trying to persuade him to go into the shade but he kept insisting he was all right but he later just became unresponsive, it must have been scary for her.
