I agree, and although it's always nice to come home with a rosette, for me it's not the be-all and I always take something from the experience, whether it's a comment from the judge that will help me improve on in future generations or meeting someone new!

Matthew is still young and there's a chance that Matthew will improve as he gets older, just as James did. There's less hope now that Victoria will improve enough to be in the running for a COM or anything but she still has her merits.

Yeah, Vicky is quite small and Matthew is over 10g bigger than her. She's still not as small as Jess.

Matthew's brother was there too... he did well so I'm very pleased for his owner.
