Hi everyone
I managed to get to the Dog Show on Sunday and I am so pleased that I made it in the end. What a fab weekend I had all I can say is to everyone involved in organising this event.
Sue and her family are amazing they are all so committed to the Rescue. Sue's daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren were a pleasure to meet and so welcoming. When I arived I asked Sue if there was anything I could do to help (they were all so well organised) and thought for a second and asked me to look after "Mad Max" well that was what I thought she said. She actually said Mad Madge as that is her affectionate name for female dogs, and it was little Gigi that I had - Sue's grandson kept me right. What a lovely little dog I was more than happy to look after her for as long as I could.
Val, Gordon & Frazer- what can I say. Words can not thank you enough for everything you did for me over the weekend. Frazer was my personal chauffeur and went above and beyond the call of duty to get me to and from places. so much. I had arranged with Frazer and Gordon to surprise Val as she thought I wasn't going to be able to manage and it was a picture that I will never forget when her "special delivery" Harry and myself walked into her living room. You are all truly special people. so much Gordon for our packed lunch for the train - Harry loved the sandwiches!!!
Marion my Hotel buddy - I enjoyed your company so much - even when the fire alarm went off at 3.30 in the morning.Harry got back to normal as soon as we got home and your dogs are so lovely again it was so lovely to meet you.
Forum Members It was great to finally put faces to names and what lovely peeps you all are. I am not going to try and name everyone I met for fear of forgetting someone as I do not want to offend. Most of the people I recognised through their dogs pics being on the forum, apart from the lady I accosted and asked if she was Rosalie - I did eventually track Rosalie down with the help of a couple of forum members.
I was Harry's 6th birthday on Sunday and I can't thank the rescue and his former mummy, AnnMarie, enough for letting me adopt him and to share that special day with all who were there. The only problem I had that day was with another dog called Fraggle Rock but that's a story for another day.
for a wonderful weekend and I look forward to next years event!!
PS Henry is an "Angel" - sorry Lesley I just had to say that Ha ha I know it was an imposter that was there on Sunday
