Off to Working and Pastoral Breeds on Saturday, need to leave about 5.30 so have to be up an hour earlier. Just to prove how completely mad showing dogs is can anyone beat that for a start time?
Cup of tea for the winner!

How about having to go the night before, Newcastle to Builth & back in one day is just toooooooooo much

Kay

when I go to shows in Newark I have to leave at 4:30am

IF I had gone to our Scottish club show I would have been up and out the door at 2am - can you tell why I didnt bother in the end

Sorry Kay, have checked the rules (the special rules in my head) and whilst strictly speaking you are winning I imagine you will get a lie in compared to some. Good luck for the show though.

was picked up at 4, so got up at 3, only to find people picking me up running late by an hour!!!!!!!!! ARGH!

left at 9 previous day for scotland!

er, left 9pm for Scotland (from Devon)   arrived SKC at 6am then drove home in the afternoon

Sorry Jeff same show on Saturday will be leaving  when your just getting out of bed ;)

No need to apologise, I get tea whatever happens You are in pole position at the moment. Sugar?

Well my breed is often later on so I take it easy when possible, BUT my mate arrived at Crufts at -5.30 am!!
