It rained all day long without stopping even for a second, the ground has turned into a giant swamp with so many people walking on it, that its just awful!

lappiemum Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 That was just appalling today! People going tomorrow, be very careful moving around in the carpark and grounds - the mud in places is very slippery, and the grass is all churned up elsewhere. My advice would be to stuff the rules and bring your gazebo - everyone was crowded in the undercover areas when there was free space in where they usually have ring 1 (they only had 3 rings running today).

Entourage Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Even though we got drowned today, our Chinese Crested bitch Zena, 'Sasujea Zephyr' gained points for her championship title today :-) :laugh: :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entourage Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Some shots of the grounds today around lunchtime, and it just got worse from there on... Even though everyone was crammed into the sheds like sardines, which the viewing public couldnt see anyway, there was plenty of room for gazebos. The viewing public would of been able to still see the dogs in the rings and viewed them in the gazebos if they wished. This clubs mindset is in the darkages.

Cheers :-) yeah i didnt realise that Zena had got her title when i was in breed judging (thought i was a point short :-p) So i thought id thank the judge for the BOB and tell her that she was titled after inter was judged :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpikesPuppy Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Oh, if you are a DOL person, HUGE THANK YOU again to the lady with the GSPs for blocking the traffic while we backed the trailer out great to know there are kind people out there happy to help out instead of just thinking 'not my problem'.

Owned by Shelties Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Where are we allowed to park trailers?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpikesPuppy Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 On Carr St, the wide grass verge-y bit. Very tricky though to get out unless you know how to reverse well (preferably reverse in in the morning lol). However we didn't do that so had to reverse onto the road during peak hour. Not fun. So very grateful for the lady helping us out!! It's unfortunate but unless the regulations regarding gazebos changes as well as improved trailer parking (even if they had an attendant on hand to help block traffic etc) we probably won't do the Geelong Royal again. I know they can't help the weather but it gets to a point where enough is enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpikesPuppy Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 It was the trailer parking arrangements and the lack of assistance to leave that did it for me. Up until that point, I was quite happy to deal with everything else. Hmph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
