Karen - a minor point - it wasn't an Open show!!!!!
It was a Limited show - and boy, were the classes big compared to the Opens!
There was only AV each Group so the same as being in the Group really, so well done to Colonel for effectively winning what would be the group at an Open!
AND AV Junior!
We had a bad day, I left my show jacket at home
that'll teach me to iron it, Deccy was DYING to empty himself but didn't let me know until we were in the ring for AV Utility, he crossed his legs and managed 4th out of 8, we then dashed outside where it had started to rain and was freezing, he then took a full five minutes to decide precisely where to empty himself, we then dashed back in for AV handled by a lady (yes they let me in too!
) 14 in that, managed 3rd. Really good prizes for everyone placed, I got a set of hairbrushes & mirror for the 3rd and a set of 4 scented candles for the 4th, both very acceptable. We stayed on for AV not bred by exhibitor, got chucked out, ditto AV Open
but he went well. His highlight was trying to play with Colonel who was towering above him and batting his head with a huge paw! I asked Colonel for a kiss, got a very restrained one, then he jumped up and he is BIG
let's just say I got more of a close up of his crown jewels than is usual in polite company!
Didn't get back until gone 8pm, lots to do before I go to bed so better get on with it .......
