Feels really weird - I'm not showing there for the first time in 17 straight years as the rules have changed at work and I have been refused a day of unpaid leave. Much as I dislike lots of aspects of Crufts (crowds tutting when you try and get through with a dog of all things!) I love the over all feel of it, and as all my dogs are complete social butterflies and lean into the passing crowd from their grooming tables I get to spend a whole day talking about my breed as people find it hard to ignore them. Oh well I will have to just have it all streaming live on the whiteboard in my classroom all day!
