Wibble

This weekend was agility at Ribble - nice indoor venue and the closest show to home we've ever been to - only 48 minutes away! (I'm not a journey time nerd, just happened to notice we set off bang on 7am ... ) I love having an excuse to go that way as it's a nice drive over t'Tops. On the way there there was mist in the dips:

The show itself was good - small and friendly and the venue in a nice spot. But it was our first indoor show for ages and Maisie was not her usual self, spooked by the environment, and I clumsily misjudged a couple of bits with the courses being more squished together (really they should suit us better) so in both graded classes we got big fat E's!!! Oooops. She also went back a step in confidence over the contacts - getting "stuck" on top of the A-scale both times. She was quite zoomy overall though, and I learnt something when she popped out of the weaves and I put her back through, more relaxed as we were out of the running, and she sped up and did all 12 nicely and happily ... Managed a scrappy clear in the last class but it was 1-3 combined so no place (though not far off one, as it happened - maybe everyone else was having a bad day too?!) So it was a bit of a wibble in the season, but never mind coz it was fun :0)

Then it was pretty again on the way home. (Pics near Stanbury)
