Barrow


So we got to Barrow after all :o) Went back up Friday morning, arriving about 10.30am, just in time to walk two courses, run them and be done for 11.30! I felt a bit rushed and didn't run Tim (have to be in the right frame of mind, lol!) but that was maybe a blessing as later in the day I took him in the practice ring and he was ACE!!! In the morning's classes Maisie got a 5th in her agility classs - dunno how as it was a dire run - she'd got very spooked en route by some RAF jets so was on go-slow - however, that flukey result made up for the disappointment of a lovely jumping run (on a course with pushy-outy bits that she should've hated!) at the end of which the last pole slowly toppled ...
Maisie did nice runs all weekend actually - just odd poles & whatnot, She's such an angel.
& Tim was much better! He got half a clear round!!!!!! ;o) Going lovely and I was getting a bit shocked when he was still clear by obstacle number 10 - his super weaves have re-appeared, yay! and he was jumping beautifully! But then he spotted his tug on the finish line ... oh well, he came back and finished OK and went on to do some other respectable runs. One day he will be Fabulous!!......
I got the cartoon above of them done - kept meaning to last year but never got round to it. The bloke who does them is fab and such a nice person. I think Maisie looks a bit evil, Billy's pretty cool, but I think he's captured Tim to a T! Can't look at it without chortling :o)
Maisie's Rescue Finals next Saturday ... if I don't explode with excitement first! :-O
