Small Grade 7 handlers were spotted dancing while walking one of their courses on Saturday. It all started with Adele demonstrating Oliver's "dance" seesaw moves, Amanda Hampson showing off her new handling system of stick your leg out and butt spins and Brian insisting that everyone should have a go at ketchup turns. One thing just led to another and they quickly got out of hand! I tell you what, it was very amusing from my viewpoint.
The small pairs was a great competition with Lou & Deb taking 1st, Adele & Avril 3rd and Sarah & Hannah 4th!
Lou only had Twiggy to run as Poppy is recovering from an injury and they had two more wins throughout the day! Poor Poppy will not be happy.
Deb & Bert had a great weekend with a couple of placements and some clear rounds.
As it went dark on Saturday a very bright, tall, pink thing was seen floating around the caravans. It turned out to be Sarah in a onsie! I said I'd give her £10 if she wore it all day on Sunday.
Oswestry Sunday and the heavens opened. Sue and Rosie appeared for the day and just missed out on a placement after a cracking Agility run. They finished off early and made it home for lunch!
Lou judged all day and her boots were still soggy the following Friday! However amazing Mandy cheered her and the ring party up with some "seriously yummy millionaire shortbread chocolate things with orange buttons on".
Sarah got a 2nd in G1-7 Jumping despite nearly loosing her hat half way round.
Avril's Ellie had a few unplaced clears and Adele & Oliver got 4th and 7th.
As for me.. Well Guinness managed 7 out of 7 Eliminations, but we did a nice handling Jumping course on Saturday and a storming agility round on Sunday morning, with only the weaves letting us down.
A lovely weekend with some great friends.
