Firstly, thank you to the hard-working committee for getting this show up and
running after so many months of planning and protocol regarding restrictions
and precautions. It can’t have been easy to organise in these trying times,
around the ring everyone appeared happy and content in their tents or
gazebos and we are a hardy bunch of exhibitors and enthusiasts, in fact I prefer
it to benching in the summer months.
It was so nice to finally leave Wales after 18 months of lockdown. I hope I didn’t
disappoint too many exhibitors, as I was a replacement Judge at such short
notice. It was like a mini break for us, wonderful hospitality, and a very
comfortable Hotel.
I would also like to apologise for my delay in posting my critique. Due to tragic
personal circumstances, and the passing of my brother. I have had lots of other
paperwork and legal issues to deal with due to him passing so suddenly. I hope
you accept my apologises at this time.
