Hi Mark

Great Photos! Katie loves the action shots of Smudge!

Lovely to meet you.

Quite an interesting day, conditions very variable, with gusting winds that made Lynne W send out an SOS to Lynne M ''Please can you bring your Gazebo? ours is threatening to take off'' So a strategic swop was made that saved the day.

Caz DD and I would like to thank Lynne ( Gutsymum ) and Holly, Lynne ( Daffysmum ), Alan, Katie, Amy, without whose help we would never have managed. Rachel who found us after searching the boot sale ( just can't keep away from them ).

Dogs on duty today;- Abs, Bails, Gutsey, Stella, Smudge, Sam and Baz.

Sam won Best Puppy and Best in Show handled superbly by Amy. photos by Mark ( Bruin ) on separate thread.

Once more our attendance generated interest in the Home and possible leads for project help.
Baglady as usual was about making some very good contacts for future events. To finish she did a very good job of litter picking the field.

Amount raised today £ 94. 53

And a finally ; FCDH now has posh Gazebo courtesy of Lynne M and family ;D Thank you so much.

We were all packed up and home before it started to pour again.
Baglady might be still litter picking ;D

Please stalk away - we can't get enough of you!

Plus a shout out to your your lovely daughter Amy and gutsysmum's daughter Holly who saved my clothes rail from collapsing in the wind a 7th time.

Nice to meet you today Mark. Another great set of photos. That last one of Gutsy is him to a tee. ;D

[Baglady]

It was really lovely to meet you yesterday Mark

Thanks so much for the pics, they're smashing!

[Baglady]

Many thanks to George Thomas for inviting us to this lovely event - it was an absolute winner all round

The weather was a little 'challenging' at the start, but we had a lovely day, and all in support of a very good cause.

Well done to Bern & Caz for facilitating this, and for 'doing the bizniz', sorting & collecting the stock, setting up, manning the stall, and packing, all ably assisted by the Lynne's & Co! Sterling job everyone

And I'm absolutely chuffed to announce that my camera and my handbag are going into retirement ;D Mark took excellent pictures of the day, and the Lynnes were magnificent on the PR side, networking and making some really useful contacts for our future events

As always, it was lovely to have our Young Friends in attendance, as well as a fabulous turn out from our Four Legged Friends, which always help attract peeps to our stall.

I'm so glad we did this event - it was a thoroughly enjoyable day ;D

They didn't have a Doggy Dash, but Katie has warned me that there is a 'Smudge Grudge' thing going on twixt Bas & Smudge Bruin, how are you at photo finish shots Methinks there might be a very interesting 'personal' race at Hailey Park next week
