I’d like to thank the officers and committee for their kind invitations to judge their breed clubs open show. The hospitality received was much appreciated and the day was one I enjoyed very much. Thank you to my two very efficient stewards Sian McKay and Margaret Davies who kept me on track and the ring running smoothly through out the day. My day was very rewarding seeing such quality dogs presented for me to judge, and in some classes especially LB and Veteran I would of liked more 1st places such was the quality of the exhibits.
