Hi all

Could anyone let me know if there is such a thing for those in the east midlands, particularly Leicestershire  :?:   :?:

Apologies if someone has asked this before, if so could i be pointed in the right direction.

I would love to meet up with other cockers and owners  :!:

Hi Gina & Barkley, Bess & I live in Leicestershire too.

I'm hoping to adopt a new Cocker this weekend & when he's settled in (give me a couple of weeks) I'd be up for a meet with other Cockers & their owners.

I live in Leicester too and have a 6 month old boy called Riley.  An East Mids meeting would be great, perhaps at Bradgate Park?  It would be great to meet you and your cockers!

Go on have an East Midlands meet! In north West and the Southern lot :wink:  we just arrange it on here. No frequency or anything like that - just do it for fun and when others can come along.

Oh one other thing - you must take some piccy's!!!!!!

I did try and get something going for North Midlands/South Yorkshire before but not much response, but as in Derbyshire just up road would love to meet up with you guys... Bradgate sounds good, can you have dogs off lead though as there are/can be lots of deer around?

You can have dogs off lead at Bradgate as there are areas separated off for the deer, Riley loves it there!

I am in Leicestershire too.  

We would love to meet up with you all.  Tilly adores all dogs, but particularly cockers, of course!  She is 10 months old now.  Bradgate Park is just 10 miles away, so would be great.  Another suggestion might be Burbage Woods, just off  the M69, but may not be so central for everyone.  It's very safe for dogs and there is a farmhouse there selling hot chocolate and ice-lollies, great whatever the weather!

Would be very happy to be involved in organising and meeting up.

Wow what a response :D  :D

To be more precise we live in Barwell a village just outside Hinckley, Burbage Woods is within walking distance for me, and also Market Bosworth Park is a only a short drive away.

We have never been over to Bradgate Park yet, but i'm sure Barkley would love it.

not quite sure what happens now though :?:  do we all just say a date and go for it :!:

Gina, you're just down the road from me, I'm in Nailstone, just off the A447 after Market Bosworth.  Have I seen you in Bosworth Park?  We go there regularly.

Anyway, I say suggest a date & we'll all see if we can fit in.  For me it will have to be a weekend because I work full time.  In fact, how about a fortnight on Sunday, which would be 28 March?

I won't be able to attend that weekend as we will be in Spain (well, Riley will be being spoiled to death by his aunty!)

Any chance we could make it the 4th?  Any venue is fine for us :)

Yes, the 4th is fine for me as well, basically i don't do much on Sundays!!

It might be a bit warmer by then as well.
