The sat nav is working hard !

Its been a hectic few weeks with the sat nav being used a lot to navigate us to various venues around the country. We had a brilliant weekend at the Garlic Festival on the Isle of Wight where there was huge crowds. When i did the displays the crowd were four or five deep around the ring and i don't think i ever have had so many children in the ring for the "disco dancing" competition.
A busy week in the grooming salon followed and then a trip to Norfolk to see my good friend Helen and teach two one day freestyle workshops. Helen breeds Novia Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers so the first day was just for this breed which meant i couldn't exactly ask the person with a toller to step forward. Both groups were very enthusiastic in the morning but i think by the afternoon what with the heat and the amount of work i do with the groups they were all needing a bit of rest.
Its no rest for the wicked as over the bank holiday weekend i will be attending the PNM HTM show at Stoneleigh where i will work Whizzy. I don't really need to as she has already gone into advanced but i have had my arm twisted to compete with her for a TV programme, more of that later! Then we will be going on up to Eye in Suffolk for the Eye country show. I have performed displays there many times so i know it will mean a lot of running around as the ring is very large so i have to try and cover as much of it as i can.
A apology to anyone asking me to teach workshops for the rest of this year, I'm afraid i think i don't have that much more time available at weekends, so make sure you get your date for early next year.
