Congratulations to the Pointernuts crew on Best Baby in Show with little Olivia - Turnix Sin City!!

What horrible weather!! Freezing! Still had fun though Group 2 BIG - Australian Terrier RUBIG - Welsh Terrier Baby - Cairn Minor - Staffy Puppy - Fox Terrier Junior - RUBIG Inter - BIG Aus Bred - ? Open - Fox Terrier I think.... was busy watching Gundogs Group 3 BIG - English Setter RUBIG - Golden Retriever Baby - Weimaraner ~ Silvasheen Oska Dlarenta, at his very first show BIS - Silky RUBIS - Puli

Life members - without being rude, I cannot remember the first man's name, I know him from group 4 and I think he has Borzoi's, hopefully someone will remember. The second one was Ray Ashman. I think a lot of changes need to be made, a lot of things were discussed on the night I only hope that they are taken seriously by Management and they do try and sort some things out. I'm not sure if centers throughout the state would be a good option though. Would we need more employees to work in these centers? Looking at the balance sheet, I'm not sure we could afford it. One thing that was brought up several times was doing judges training by correspondence, a few people though you could do this and aparently you cannot. Maybe this needs to be seriously looked into? I mean, they need to go over the dogs, thats a given, but could this be done at shows, or could they hold days on weekends when there are no shows for this to be done? For people who work and live 4hrs+ away from Bulla, it would be the only way possible for them to do so. If we want to keep this sport going, we need to give everyone the oppertunity to follow their dreams, I for one would love to start training, but for me to get to Bulla that time of night if just about impossible with animals to feed and work etc.

I'm sorry, I don't have answers to your other questions, but to be fair, should we not then have centers set up for our members in Morwell, Sale, Bairnsdale?? I think the only way to make it fair for all is to share it around in the two locations. It wasn't passed as the resolution was invalid. The votes and comments will be sent to the Management Committee to take on board, thats all that happend, it's possible that nothing will be changed.

With thunderstorms and hail predicted?? I like beng outside too, but with weather like this, I can see why they move them inside, I'm sure the judges appreciate it too

Yay!!!! Thank you

You had me worried, I thought, shit, haven't washed the dogs!!

Isn't that show next weekend??

The way I heard it was, they couldn't vote on them properly, everyone was given a say and we voted and the results would go back to the Management Committee for them to take on board. Shame they didn't tell us they were invalid resolutions at the start of the meeting For a lot of people, they were the only reason they showed up. It was in interesting night, it's a shame Len Goffin never got his say on his concerns, they cut him off saying it would be discussed later, but it never was. The photocopier costs and website costs for next year also made me

Just got home

Look forward to seeing some JRT results
