If you have seen facebook then you will have seen my maon about lack of time
No excuse for not filling the pages with my rubbish but here is my belated update.
Burghley House was magic great weather magic crowds and helpers from everywhere doing thier bit to keep everyone happy.
The show had a Retriever test run by Lincs gundog club which proved to be a great sucess with the competitors and spectators alike so much so Lincs want to come back next year and make it a bigger event with more teams and more Juniors.

Went off to Chatsworth and helped with Retiever and Spaniel tests not the result most people where expecting but then we were not the judges so what do we know I think I know someone who was just a little miffed at the final placeings in the Spaniel field but then thats working tests and trialing for you.

I am off to Bakewell next weekend running events for agility dogs and flyball nutcases if you want to run against fast and mad dogs with equally fast and mad handlers then pop along and see how fast your dog really is Bakewell show groung middle of Bakewell follow signs for Dogs Unleached.

Osmaston Park Ashbourne is the next Living Heritage Show and that looks to be a great venue sorry to say no working test as promised the club that where trying to put it on do not have the help and time so maybe next year have to give people more notice!!!

Around 60 invites going out tomorrow for the Sandringham finals all the prizes are sorted sponsorship is absolutely fabulous trophies ordered venue second to none and Mr Bill Meldrum as offered the services of himself and his team to help and run the juniors in the Lintan final again and the offer to do something on Saturday and Sunday so get those invites back so that everything can be sorted before the day.

Next year will see a different format to the events with I hope automatic timing gates a different layout and I wish more people being given the opertunity to run the events and be in the front line timing and getting more involved.But that remains to be seen as I really dont know who wants to do what at this moment.

Sledmere House as been cancelled and as such Raby Castle is getting more attention hopefully the Scott Mann of the north is sorting me some helpers for the weekend as most of the regular helpers will need to renew thier passports to go that far north.

Any of you readers that dont already help out at shows and feel that they would like to get into the show and help and get to see the show then drop me a line and will arrange passes for you.
