Jim and Morag kept their lives - just - What would have happened if Catriona had not had so many nice dogs to judge I do not even want to think about. Peter once again had everything organised for a really good party. The weather was so nice that we all sat out in the garden and had a few drinks. The dogs all joined in, Peter's six and Joan's two and as with the Canouan Barbecue not a grumble or a grizzle was heard. Except or course from Catriona who was insisting that Jim and Morag were dead! I should watch your backs J & M if I were you! Advice to all UK Exhibitors who may show under Catriona in the future, wear your baseball cap and thick glasses!!!

Morag catches up on news from home,
or hides from Catriona?

Excellent supper once again, and we all retire.

Monday morning and Catriona's flight is 7am! Only Peter sees her to the airport! Then a walk with Peter's dogs in a beautiful Swedish Forest before it is well over time for us to leave.

Thanks to Peter for a wonderful weekend. To Catriona, Jim, Morag, Mia, and Joan for some excellent company. To Jim and Morag for bringing our luggage home! To Bertha for giving us a reason to go, and to the English Bred List for bringing us all together. We look forward to doing it all again next year, and hope to get the rest of the Canouan Clan's jabs up to date so that we can take them too. I for one would love to try and get a Swedish Field Trial qualification for Poppet, and perhaps even Pip in the future.
