Driffield Champion Show was one of those that we shall remember in so many ways. From starting in the morning for the journey, continual torrential rain ascended in torrents from Oswestry to past Leeds. In places the water lay on the motorway making driving difficult to say the least, especially when some not so awake…
The Welsh Kennel Club held their Championship Show Builth, everything as usual spick and span and the show with the help of their hospitable committee ran as smooth as clockwork. Good array of trade stands giving all the exhibitors plenty of choice. The Papillons had a good size ring with plenty of grooming space.For this…
Bucket and spades at the ready, Bournemouth here everyone goes. This is one journey I do not jump for joy, especially since the move to the newer venue making another 40 minutes travelling time each way. I can fully understand the caravan and motorhomes being out in force managing to combine Paignton, Bournemouth and of…

Windsor is one of most people’s favourite shows. The ground looked impeccable and the layout I am sure was to everyone’s taste. The committee really do put 100% effort into making this the exhibitors show and don’t they all look smart in their jackets. The day was dry, at times sunny, but a biting wind…
The weather was kind to Blackpool Championship Show after the continual wet weather we had experienced the week before. As always every detail for the show had been put in place by the hard working committee with Stevie Hall at the helm. Such a good array of trade stands to browse on all boundaries of…
There was a long journey ahead for many exhibitors making the journey to Border Union in Kelso. A spectacular setting when Mr Sunshine has his hat on but maybe like Malvern increment weather gives a completely different picture. The days prior to Toy Day I have seen from pictures the ground was a mud bath,…
