Chilterns Show
I had the clever idea to go and see the new Harry Potter film (brilliant) on friday night. We went for a chinese and then went to see the film after. This resulted in me finally getting to bed at 2am as I had to quickly pack for the weekend. I then had to get up at 4.30am urgh!! I blearily drove to Katies to pick her up as she was staying with me and then we set off for the show. Made it to the show ground in just over an hour from Katie's house and quickly set the caravan up. We were in the second div on with the Muttleys and did really well although nearly every race went to five legs. We came second and achieved a cracking new seed time of 20 secs dead. This was especially good as Tyler and Lily were not being run by Dave and Kate (they are both now sacked!! :) lol). The Running 4 Mutts also got a stunning new seed time of 17.57 but ended coming seventh!! lol!! Poor Fly was so tired by the end of her racing that she could barely keep her head up to see where she was going bless her! At presentation I was awarded with Fly's Ice Blue Moon award and the team brought me a beautiful engraved glass frame with a picture of Fly in it and a bottle of rose cava (very nice). I will post some photos of her with her goodies soon. We then had a celebratory chinese (diet did not go well this weekend lol). On the sunday the Fun 4 Mutts ran but it was raining most of the day and it was very slippery. They did well and got a third (i think) but the times were not great. It was a lovely show and it was very nice to be back at a country show where there is quite a bit to do. As ever the Barkshire Bandits hosted a very slick and well run show and you would never have guessed that on saturday there was only six of them running it!!
