Busy busy

Life seems very busy at the moment and with the pending trip to Australia very shortly it is only going to get busier. Last week saw myself and Pogo on the beach at The Witterings demonstrating frisbee freestyle for a piece on ITV's This Morning. The presenter Jodie Kidd was really nice and it all went pretty well. Having done quite a few programmes now you know it is all going to edited into a tiny bit and this was the case when i saw it this week. As always these things seem to come in pairs and we might have another piece for a TV programme to film this coming week.

Little Betty has been in the wars a bit as this week she went into the vets to have her baby teeth removed and be neutered. I didn't really want to have her neutered yet but it makes sense to only put her under one anesthetic being so small. Her mouth was full of teeth both adult and baby, some were going a funny colour so something had to be done.

This coming week is again very busy as i only have a few days to fit in some of my grooming clients before i leave for Oz. Just before i go though i will be making my way up to Worcester for another sheepdog lesson and then staying up there for the two day HTM show. I am judging both Crufts qualifying classes which should be interesting as last weekend i was judging starters/novice classes at Findon downs HTM show. The new judging marking scheme certainly seemed to help me, so it will be good to try it out on classes at the other end of the spectrum.

Then i will be off to Australia to Melbourne first and then Brisbane. I have been to Melbourne before so it will be good to catch up with some handlers from last time and see how the sport has progressed. Both workshops are going to be very busy as i beleive there is thirty handlers on each so i think i will be consuming lots of cola and chocolate to keep my energy up !!
