I still have my badge that Libs made.  Unfortunately I didn't get to go that year, so never had chance to wear it, but it has been pinned up alongside my 'special' rosettes ever since.
Strangely enough, I was reading my old posts the other night, and came across the thread Libs made about the name badges. :-)

If I go this year, I'll be wearing mine :-)

although not showing, its my first time visting and i have always wanted to go.
so i guess you could say im a crufts virgin.

Going on Thursday with poodle.  And definately not going on working day with bernese as we are going to Murrayfield to watch Scotland v England rugby match - and Scotland are sooo going to whoop Englands a**e (just like last year) :) :) :)
- By Bobzee [gb] Date 28.01.08 10:22 UTC
I'm going to be up Crufts over all 4 days, though on the Sat by the BMD ring all day assisting with the stewards (rather exciting that is for me, geting back into stewarding and spending the day with a breed I love :))  So I guess if anyone is around the BMD ring I'll see you, though I probably won't know adam from eve but you know!

Can't believe Crufts is coming round so quickly!
- By Lea Date 28.01.08 22:42 UTC
Ok you lot!!!!!! If you PM me, and give me your email address, I will sort it, just give me till weekend :) . It is an Excel file so make sure you have Excel on your computer :) :)
Looks like alot of you will be there!!!! unfortunatly I wont LOL
Lea :) :)

RIP Libs, I hope you are happy where ever you are :) :) :)

I am going this year, hopefully for the first time as an exhibitor! I been a spectator for 7 years! I have a gorgeous St Bernard bitch - who loves showing......
HOWEVER, she is starting to show pre-season behaviour! So i am sitting on the ege of my seat. Keep everything crossed for me!!!
- By lisacur77 [gb] Date 31.01.08 11:45 UTC
fingers are crossed karla !!!!!
- By karlai15 [gb] Date 01.02.08 13:17 UTC
Thanks very much! Lets hope she waits until after Crufts! :)
- By Sam-Jo [gb] Date 01.02.08 19:55 UTC
I have the same problem.  Suki had her 1st season on 1st September.  Her Mum's seasons are exactly 6 months apart, I just hope she hangs on a couple of weeks. :-o

I'll be keeping an eye out on the Saturday for fellow CDer's and might even pluck up the courage to say hello :-)

- By Astarte Date 25.02.08 15:24 UTC

> guess you could say im a crufts virgin


is everyone else who's a first timer as excited as i am???

i've bought comfy shoes, tickets for train and show are packed, shopping for packed lunches is ordered to arrive wednesday evening, camera is ready....

and theres still more than a week to go :(

so who am i to come visit?? where is everyone going to be and about when?
- By LJS Date 25.02.08 15:53 UTC
I would check about taking a camera in as not sure you are allowed to take photos ?

I maybe wrong but that was the impression I got ?
- By satincollie (Moderator) Date 25.02.08 16:19 UTC
:-D a nice thought Lucy but yes people do take photos at Crufts.
- By LJS Date 25.02.08 16:53 UTC
So how come the press have to register and can only take photos if they have the appropriate badges or is that in certain areas that joe public are not allowed ?
- By satincollie (Moderator) Date 25.02.08 16:55 UTC
The press register so they don't pay entrance fees :-D
- By LJS Date 25.02.08 17:00 UTC
Ahh I will have to remember that one next year mmmm now what can my dog magazine be called.............:-D
- By satincollie (Moderator) Date 25.02.08 17:07 UTC
They pay a different fee though Lucy ;-) and they are allowed access to certain restricted areas. However it would be a gargantuan task stopping people taking photographs at Crufts. It is polite to ask permission first of course however when you have spent time around the rings you will see photographs being taken  all the time and  they aren't all official photographers taking them.
- By LJS Date 25.02.08 17:10 UTC
Ah. I thought that people would get a bit peed of just having cameras going off all the time especially with flashes.

Yes I could imagine it is would be difficult to police :-) I might take mine then if that is the case :-)
- By Astarte Date 25.02.08 18:16 UTC

> Ah. I thought that people would get a bit peed of just having cameras going off all the time especially with flashes


video camera and non flashy digital one!

and of course i'd ask the owners first! (hopefully a fair few of you lot!)
- By satincollie (Moderator) Date 25.02.08 18:21 UTC
Videoing erm you are supposed to ask the owner first or only video your own dogs and can be asked to stop otherwise.
- By Astarte Date 25.02.08 18:58 UTC
i did just say of course i'd ask...
- By satincollie (Moderator) Date 25.02.08 21:03 UTC
I was just pointing out they are a little bit more fussy about videoing
- By Astarte Date 25.02.08 21:25 UTC
hmm...why do you think?
- By Paula20380 [gb] Date 25.02.08 21:47 UTC
That is a point, I must remember to put the camera in the dog bag between now and then!! I am really useless at remembering the camera and have hardly any photos of the dogs showing.
- By Lea Date 27.02.08 20:46 UTC
Just to let the people who have pmd me in the last few days, I will do your badges at the weekend. Sorry I havnt been able to do them before
Lea.
- By Lea Date 02.03.08 12:24 UTC
All SentI have just sent out the last few.
Really sorry for the delay, it has been a caotic week LOL
If I have missed anyone can you please PM me again, but I think I have managed to send them all out ok :) :)
Hope you have a great time :)
Lea :)
