Post by: winewood on June 20, 2007, 11:18:35 AM

Hi , planning our trip to the UK, we will be travelling for the month of September, we want to see Northern England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Does anyone know of any fairs, scurries, happening in anyone of these areas would love to see some working cockers and cockers doing what they do best. Also is it possible to buy slip leads,and dog things at the fairs?

Thanks for replies, we need to sit down and work out how long in each place and what we want to see. OH family in a town near Blackburn, so that is probably where we will start from. I'll have to see some cockers will be missing mine terribly, might need to cuddle a cocker or two.

:lol: Thanks again for replies, OH is waiting to see if he can get tickets to see Manchester play Chelsea, the deal is he will come to watch dogs and I'll go watch football. HOORAY I'm so oooo  glad I'm going to see cocker's working I was beginning to think I was going to miss out  :'( and go to the football and not see any dogs. Hope to meet some COL I will be the one wanting to pat all the dogs knowing of course that I can't

Thanks Heaps
