:sweating: not long now folks i'm getting more excited!!!!!!!!!!!!! (w00t)

 

[Strike Whippets]

We're excited too ..........and will be even more so if Miya decides to firstly come out of season and secondly let the whopping scab fall off her nose :blink: .......but apart from this we're ready :thumbsup:

This time next week we'll be driving down through Scotland enroute to the NEC. Get the boat next Friday at 7.40am, hope to stay somewhere along the M6 so that we can have a quick call at the show on Saturday morning before heading into Coventry and our hotel. Of course Isaac, aka Rushden Moody Blue, has now decided to lose a little weight, his idea of getting reading for Crufts!! so he'll have to be fed extra rations all next week. He's normally a bit, well, fat's not the exact word, but we have to be careful not to feed him the evening or morning before a show as his tuck up disappears But the thought of seeing all his whippy friends has made him a bit vain :wub:

Hope to see all the K9'ers around the benches, might even have some of the old irish mist with me if anyone needs some before or after they go in the ring :cheers:

Good luck everyone :luck: :luck: :luck:

Brilliant, I might manage to stagger over to the whips then,from hall 3 or wherever the M.T.'s are being judged (w00t) ,just for some of your Irish mist..... :- "

Really pleased you're excited Daledogs,hope you're not dissapointed :wacko: (from someone who hates Crufts dog show......)

As Nigel has not been able/too busy to organise a meeting. I strongly suggest, 8.00 a.m.,at the M.T. ring.They start judging at 8.30 a.m.,so we could dash in the ring for the photo ,then guzzle Dukies Irish mist :luck: ,then collapse in a heap (w00t) .

Which part of "OFF" don't you understand Lydia!! LOL I shall be there as late as I possibly can, dogs don't start until 10.00 HURRAH!!! Oh damn, Millie's coming with me with a bitch GROAN!!

 

[janfiers]

:cheers: Like the sound of the Irish mist, some Scotch mist wouldn't be bad either. See you all there. Mind you that's if they let me in as Fosse Data have cocked up my entry passes and according to them I'm showing my Italian on Whippet day!!!!!

 

[Millie]

Sorry Dessie.........not really LOL but hopefully I'll have a dog next year, fingers crossed :b

Dessie, judging how late you sometimes arrive at shows,it's amazing you ever make the classes (w00t) .I wrongly assumed, that you were going to make an effort for Crufts......

So when at 10.00 a.m., you haven't arrived,'cos you're stuck in the Crufts traffic,we'll just leave a space in the photo were you would have been stood shall we???? (w00t)

Only joking,I see Wendy's got a bitch to be judged,so you'll be there earlier....wont you! :- "

I realise that some of you,thought I might be stuck at the M.T. ring,and not show my ugly mug around the Whip benches...... Well tough luck .I've been asked to handle somebodies whippet for them.I'm dead chuffed,and will be around.

It's an art I've perfected over the years but I frighten even myself sometimes arriving in the nick of time!!! I don't do mornings!!!

You have perfected it really well.Me, I'm either early and miss the class 'cos I'm distracted , or I run in, late and all hot and bothered.

Luckily, our judges are very understanding.

I've never been crufts yet. we got free tickets for hound day about 6 yrs ago (a patient of ours does P R for the kennel club) and typically we overslept so didnt bother :b .

 

[Lydia]

Maybe I'd enjoy Crufts more if I wasn't exhibiting.

I'd like to say "why don't you come along Michelle,you'd really enjoy it." But, I don't enjoy ther crowds at Crufts......and don't recomend it to peeps....

If you were coming,it would be good to meet up with you though,check out the bars and talent etc.
