Lansdown

Well I only entered one day as I was only originally going for one day to do the teams... Well to cut a long story short I ended up going up Friday and coming back Sunday. Andrew and Carol Dicker, once again kindly offered for me to stay with them :)

Anyway, on the way up on Friday, I realised I had no coat... but also no shorts... oops! So I wasn't really prepared for the weather apart from maybe overcast. Well it obviously wasn't and was BOILING all weekend.

Agility wise... I was really looking forward to running. Never good, because always means i'll do rubbish. The only clear I got all weekend was the team, where 2 the last 2 dogs went clear and the first 2 dogs missed dogwalk contact. Bummer. Pie over-shot his position on the aframe and stoped half way to the jump!! Oh dear! I just did a 'ah ah'' and you can see him stop, knowing that he has done something wrong. On the other hand I was REALLY pleased with the speed of his dogwalk in the team too. Although his position at the end was a little long, the speed was good. Progress!!

Out of 3 runs.... 2 E's and a clear in the team. Next show is Rugby, and I just hope we can get the clear that i've been longing for for half of the season!!

Thames

Well I finished the weekend with 6 E's, severe sunburn on my neck and arms, and feeling very tired!

As I'm a member of Thames, I was ring partying all weekend, and this may be a reason why Pie and I's peformance wasn't quite on form haha. Despite the 6 E's I had a good weekend, and I've come away with some things to work on.

I feel that Pie's dogwalk down plank has slowed down a tad. After having spoken to Laura and Lee about it, hoepfully this will be sorted in the next few shows. So thank you to you both for having input in this... and especially to Lee who is helping me out of the habit of using dummy reverses when I shouldn't. Damn them!!

So didnt manage any videos as was too busy working, but next show is team day of Lansdown, and then Rugby where I'll also be busy again... as Laura has demanded I video her puppy Rodney, aka Plodney Rodney. Sorry Laura ;)
