Well the Channel 4 thing was a real disappointment, Noel Fitzpatrick was the only thing of interest, won't be watching any of the other coverage as it was totally stupid all in all.
Kofie not got placed, not sure what the other team members got pointswise, will find out the whole story probably tomorrow. The winners must have had a perfect score I think.

I recorded it and watched it in 2 minutes. Rubbish.

Kofies team didn't get placed, not found out the ins and outs as yet. I would have thought with a score like that she would have been in the running, but I suppose it depends on the rest of them.Still a fantastic thing a Utonagan got to compete at Crufts.
That load of rubbish on Channel 4 was an embarrassment

Just heard Kofie came 6th, when she had her Blonde Moment she turned the wrong way, if she hadn't done that then she would have been 4th. Not heard what the team did as yet, but a good result I think. Never been to Crufts in her life or been in that big a ring, and very proud of her

Yes well done to all concerned. I thought it was a great score but I know nothing of these things

She did extremely well for a first event and I thought her score was brilliant.

Kofie and another dog on the team did really well and their scores were excellent, the rest of them not so good, they reacted badly to the atmosphere and noise. Hence the team wasn't placed, Kofies individual score was good enough for her to be placed individually though.Jackie somehow summoned up the energy to ring me last night whilst Andy went for a takeaway, then it was lo g soak, bed and leisurely trip home today.

Getting to Crufts to compete is an achievement in itself whether or not you win. So well done you and Kofie and her owner for getting there. Brilliant.

I know Brenda, and Jackie was the person to make it happen, and she did. Seen the vid and they are spot on apart from where Koifie got confused and had a Blonde Moment which cost her points.
Radio Manchester interviewed them, no idea if or when it goes out

Yes, as Brenda said, just getting to Crufts is an achievement and I mean all the hassle of driving, parking, getting through the inevitable security on the gate, all the noise and confusion inside. I would be nervous even when I was much younger, now it is a definite no no

As I said before Jackie (and Kofie) are to be congratulated on doing all the above and getting what I consider to be a really good score.
