Durham Cat Club Silver (25th) anniversary show
Thanks to Elaine and her show team for my great day judging Household Pets --- its so good to be able to enjoy the cats and not worry about standards and all that!
A few weeks back Val Westerman and I had bumped into each other by the steak in Morrisons --- as a result Val came along for her first experience as a steward and did very well ---Thanks Val for a good days companionship
Personal high light was Wee Georgie (a.k.a. Gowlaren Iamgarfield) who gained his 1st British PC and the BOB --- thank you to Gwen Waugh. He also won the Crystal Clear class and another and was placed quite well in the others.
We then got on with the full show report and photos for Our Cats before a calm drive home --- stopping of for refreshing drinks for humans and Hetty who made her first trip to Durham.
