A MOST successful Championship show was held on Sunday November 12 at the Royal Bath & Western Showground with Val West judging dogs and Sue Kemp bitches, referee Clari Cross.

It was to be Mike Lancashire’s day when his youngest Drishaun Declan JW went BIS on referee’s decision. The BCC went to the Busbys’ Ch Tulak Risky Business at Wilbus JW. The Reserve DCC was awarded to Chris Pascoe’s Ch Sarakhan Sterling and RBCC to Sandra Ellis’s Renza Paint The Town Red among Mogell. BPIS was Roberta Hall’s bitch Saxonmill Sun Spot and RBPIS to Wendy Bastow with Cloudside Warlord at Karandikar (BPD).

Nice to meet Pat and Steve Fillis-Moon who travelled from their new home in France to be at this Championship show and Arthur Fisher who, as Patron, has been associated with the Western for many many years.
