I vote for Bradgate but am not really bothered, in fact, now I come to think of it it might be nice to go somewhere new!  I'm not indicisive, I just can't make my mind up!  Doh! Seriously though, majority rules so I will go with that.

Same here, i'd like to go somewhere different, so Bradgate for me.  Although i'm not really bothered at the end of the day.  Just looking forward to it.

Like all you other indecisive East Midlanders, I am flexible on the location.  Bradgate is fine for me, and a new venue, so looking forward to checking it out.  Does it have an obvious meeting place?  And what time would suit?

Tilly is showing some signs of coming into season at the moment, she does pick her moment, doesn't she?  I will keep an eye on her and let you know if we have problems with the date because of this.

Regards,

Sue

I'm happy with Bradgate if everyone else is. So is that a date then?  And what time are we meeting? About 3 pm would suit me but I can be flexible. I'm really looking forward to meeting all these new Cockers (& their owners of course ) :lol: )

Guess what?  Tilly, with impecable timing, has just come into season.  That puts us out of any meeting for the next three weeks.  So sorry to let everyone down.  Can't now make 4th, but would love to meet you all and your cockers any time afterwards!

Tilly is glum - she can't understand why she's not going on her usual walks.  It will be a long and boring three weeks for all of us....

Just waiting for Sam to post directions now.  I know how to get to Bradgate, but not sure about which car park/meeting place etc. It's a long long time since I last went there. Does the car park still get packed?

Hi
I saw all of your correspondence on an East Midlands meet.
For a future venue you might consider Fosse Meadows at Frolesworth
It is a great place for Dogs . Lots of space, free parking and water!.
Might join you some time with my working cocker
Regards

Wendy, we also walk regularly at Fosse Meadows with Tilly - we all love it.  Would love to meet up there with other cocker owners some time in the future - post Tilly's season.  Just wanted to endorse your comments, Fosse Meadows is a great place to walk with dogs (or without!)

I may have to cry off next week.  Dillon & Bess have both had Kennel Cough.  Dillon is just about over it but Bess has been quite poorly (she's nearly 12 years old). She's on antibiotics from the Vet & I've been out today to get her some Benylin for children which is what most people seem to recommend for KC.  We hardly had a wink of sleep last night with her coughing & she gets so distressed with it.

Anyway, I hope the meet goes ahead & that you all enjoy it, I may make it, if she gets better in the next couple of days, but if not, hope to meet up with you all on the next East Mids Meet.

Poor Dillon and Bess - and poor you!  I hope they are both feeling better soon and you all get some sleep.

I am very keen to arrange another East Midlands meet hot on the heels of the first one as I feel fed-up about not being able to make it because of Tilly's season.  Why don't we tentatively aim for sometime in May?  I will post on the board in a few weeks time to see if we can get East Midlands meet no 2 off the ground.  In the meantime, hope the meet on April 4th goes really well.  We'll be with you in spirit!

woof!

Bess & Dillon are very nearly well again so may be able to make it.  Will look out for meeting instructions anyway & if they're OK, we'll be there.
