We had a great day at Mapplewell Show. There was a large entry and some gorgeous hams on the bench. It was also our AGM and we were thrilled to welcome our President, Mr Dickie Bird (of the Cricketing fame) to the meeting. I acted as Pen Steward for both Syrians and Dwarfs and was lucky to receive some useful information from both judges. Well done to all who entered and received a prize.
We only took our Syrian Red to the show as Sonni has retired now and Paws was looking 'tired' and 'tatty' as he is moulting! She is a bit past it now though and didn't get anything. We also took our two new Dwarfies Kipton and Bingley. We were very pleased when they scored very well for babies against a big class. Bingley took BIS Junior and Kipton came second so we were very pleased with them!!!
We hope everyone who attended had a good time and hope to see some of you at the next show in Lymm!
We didn't take many pics but here are a few:
