BittyMooPeeb Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 My entries for Coolamon Ganmain were returned despite a message from the cataloguer that entries were still open. They were posted four weeks before the show, and returned three weeks before the show. Entries for Ganmain (posted at the same time) have not been returned. Just wondering if anyone else has had the same?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarakay Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Thats a strange thing your in at 1 show but not the others, will be interesting to see how many this has happened too.I didn't think the cataloguer was taking the entries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceilidh Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 You didn't accidently put them in your return envelope did you? It has been done before by others (not me YET!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BittyMooPeeb Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 You didn't accidently put them in your return envelope did you? It has been done before by others (not me YET!) LOL no. They had a note saying they were too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandalay Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I far as I know the entries were NOT taken by the cataloguer So IF one place got them quicker than the other this would be why, as entries were closed some time ago! Once they have been sent to the cataloguer, then it is common practice for entries to be returned.... I always get mine in before the closing date stated in the journal and then you can not be sure they have got them !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yarrowfell Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I heard at the ACT shows on the weekend of at least 4 people getting entries returned, now I have no idea when these entries were send or arrived but at least one lot there were two envelopes posted the same day from the same Post office with different breeds entered. One lot was accepted, the other sent back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done that I was thinking about how fast I got a receipt back. Nothing returned here.. but I entered ages ago. There were two different addresses/show secretaries for these shows.

Yarrowfell Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Interesting .... Which breeds were accepted and which were rejected? I will tell you privately later as I don't want to post details on a public forum. I know at least one person who's entries were rejected has taken the matter furthur so will leave it until I hear an outcome. Not sure how accurate it is but also heard Toy entries are around the 30 mark so it looks like being a small show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandalay Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I am not entered this time, but looked at the weather, Rain, Storms , Wind and freezing temps..... I have no shows untill September, hope it is warmer then, but did hear the rain is going to continue for a while.......all dams are filling up well in this area.. You had better pack your winter woolies......gum boots etc.... Heard on the grape vine ,I think the entry is nearly 400 which is usual for these shows........ Good Luck to all who are showing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poodlefan Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 (edited) Just checked the forecast. Friday looks OK. Saturday "mostly sunny". Sunday Ok. The cyclone proof pink and purple palace will be there, tied down with the most elaborate pegging system known to man (got "engineer approved" at Wagga ) .. we'll be OK. Will pack the gumboots though. Edited August 16, 2010 by poodlefan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not forget Ceilidh these entries went to 2 different places, not everyone gets the mail on the same day..... Wonder what part of LATE these people do not understand !!! 16th of July was the closing date !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
