We had a lovely day, and really needed to get out for the day and see friends, a bit tough once or twice when people asked after Leah but then they asked because they cared about her which was also nice if you know what I mean.
Kearen it was lovely to see you Maggie and Frank and I am sorry I didn't get to say goodbye, we were taking things back to the car when James got tripped up by a GWP who fancied Prima, he went flying and twisted his knee so coming back in was not possible as it hurt to walk on. I did ring Elle and explain, so sorry I didn't see you again. You are right Mathilde is Summer's daughter and Sella's sister, Ann did so well with her as it was her first show and she was rather naughty but she came second and qualified for Crufts so WELL DONE to them both. Sharon and Elspeth did really well too especially as little Genna was spooked by the low flying planes overhead. The judge has given Logi Best of Breed before so he couldn't go but Diva did and showed her socks off, we only managed a 3rd but then if you saw the results and knew the dogs you would see that any of the clear back and whites like Diva and Prima were chucked or down the end of the line, you get judges like that that have a dislike for certain colours and wont place them, either to white or too black!!!!
We got stuck in holiday traffic on the A303 so it took hours to get home but it was good to get in and see the others. Karen we must try and meet up at a show again and this time Summer will come, how about Richmond which is held at Guildford?
Thanks to Arlene and Katie for you lovely words and yes we miss Leah terribly it is so quiet and empty without her.
Love all the puppy pictures especially the alien one!!!!! Thanks Sharon for you lovely card and what fantastic writing you have. We are having a quiet weekend as James goes away for a week with his old school in Overton, he is so excited they are off to PGL camp at the Isle of Wight, so need to get his clothes washed and packed and he needs to re charge his batteries before he goes.
Looking forward to more pictures, thank you everyone.
