Wow...what a day!!!!

Went to Crufts today. It was fab.
We got there for 9ish and went straight to the Flat Coats where we met up with Cosmo's breeder then saw his sister get 5th in her class and then his brother get first in his, giving him his final point for his junior warrant.

I then abandoned my son and OH to the shops and met Borderdawn and Orey. Both are lovely. just wish the inconsiderate people around hadn't wanted to meet her dogs.....she was in demand!!! Great to finally meet her.

I then tried to see Rachelsetters but she was shopping... how very dare she!!! I hoped to get back to her but didn't....next year Rachel!
I got to meet Allan and Endal and EJ instead! Bonus!

I then tootled back to the FCR rings (after a bit of retail therapy) and had lunch with some friends.

We then went shopping as a family and spent a fortune. Cosmo is very happy!!! Although he is currently squeaking one of his new airkong tennis balls and singing along with it, so don't know how long he'll have it this evening!!!! I then saw Allan and Endal again. His daughter (Allan's) is lovely so sat on the floor chatting to her with my son tickling EJ. Brill. Shame I'd already bought and read the book or I would have got one and got it signed!

It was then back to the FCR rings then more shopping then home.

I am exhausted but it was a lovely day and not a protester in sight.

Sounds like my kind of day.........dogs........shopping........lunch and dogs My idea of heaven

Glad the protestors weren't there to spoil everyones day!

I bet your legs are aching after all that walking

My feet are killing me!!! I walked 6 miles according to my stepometer!!!!

Sounds like a perfect day.

What a fab day Glad you had such a good time.

Thanks guys. We were worried we wouldn't make it as my son has had the flu, but thankfully he rallied and was insistent about going. Don't know where he gets it from.
I wasn't really looking forward to it as much as I did last year...but I had a fab day!

I bet it was very interesting meeting people from Dogsey. I often wonder what people look like when I read their posts

Did you buy any exciting doggy things

I met Rachelsetters last year and hoped to meet her and the handsome Connor again...but I got soooo distracted by the FCR stuff...

I got a FCR book...cuddlies for Cosmo, airkong tennis balls for Cosmo, treats for Cosmo, new orange cloth things for Cosmo...

My son won a cuddly husky and got all sorts of bits and bobs...

Next year for sure

Can't believe we got our timings out and Connor didn't get his cuddle he says next year please that's if we get there!

Glad you had such fun and bet Cosmo is happy with all those goodies !

Managed to also meet Orey and B/Dawn very briefly - Orey is lovely x

Oh what a fantastic day, Ailsa - I'm only slightly jealous, honest........
