Going to be a cracker

I'll go - it's not too far from me - so looking forward to shows where you don't come home with chilblains

They aren`t another one of Tim`s experiments are they?

[peeblespoultryclub]

oh no.. that sounds awful.. but sometimes, the weather at the summer shows ain't much better.

remember the year at the summer show at Peebles with the torrential rain, I spend all day walking in mud. At the end of the day, I had to throw away my ruined shoes and when I took my socks off, I discovered my toenails looked the same as my fingers nails after I have been gardening - black and full of mud around the nails!! Not a good look in toes!!

The moral of my story is... always take wellies and wax jackets in Scotland! Summer is a misnomer.

As Hazel says Summer and Scotland cannot always be mentioned in the same sentence. One thing is certain, you won't trade chilblains for sunstroke, not in the UK.

Janice has kindly forwarded on loads of information/ schedules for this new show for you all to collect at Peebles. I have to confess I have already had a detailed swatch at the schedule.. and this really really really is going to be a cracker of a show.

[Rhode Runner]

Picked up a schedule at Peebles For this one. so have now added a little to the details. There was a lot of interest shown at Peebles and this will fefinitely be a show to attend.
