1st time to a Game Fair but definitely not the last.
I had a superb time & managed to get everything on my list and more 
It was so lovely to meet so many of you at last & put a face to your names but also, more importantly!, to meet your fur babies, who are even more adorable in the fur than they are on the forum    :luv:

Sorry to of missed others but seeing as it was such a great event, no doubt we'll be back next year & hopefully get to meet up then   ;)

A special thank you to Jayne (Pearly) for the superb accommodation recommendation  :luv: :-* - can highly recommend Odfellows of Shifnal which met our needs perfectly .... the additional wine bar/restaurant that adjoins the accommodation, had nothing to do with swaying us to give this recommendations a trial   :005:

to top such a perfect day, the weather was just perfect & hope you all enjoyed it as much as i did

Couldn't put it better Lindsey... was a lovely lovely day and was really nice to meet some new folk face to face and their lovely dogs  :luv: Think Pearl may have pinched a little bit of my heart too, she is just  :luv: :luv: :luv:  And just to add my thanks to Jayne - your recommendation was fab! Really perfect after a long days driving/walking  ;)

One reason a dog can be such a comfort when you're feeling blue is that he doesn't try to find out why.  ~Author Unknown

I had a photo of Jinley taken (when she was in a better mood) at the Game Fair on Saturday.

Was a lovely photo of Jingley  :luv:  but I have to say she did make me laugh later  :005: she was soooooo tired.   Wish I'd got a picture of her grumpy face watching the scurries in a very "why on earth would you want to do that...." fashion later on  :005: bless her... she's gorgeous and a real character :luv: ... I love cockers so much!!!!

Looks like you all had an amazing time.

Pat, Jinley is so  :005:, she is a little darling, some of her faces she pulls  :luv:
I can imagine her actually saying that if she could speak  :005: xx

Ha ha!  What you cant see is that on the staged picture on the left there were a brace of pheasants which other dogs were taking a great deal of notice of!  Jinley sat as far away as possible - like they were potentially covered in fleas!!! :005: :005:

As soon as the camera had clicked - she was off!!

We had a lovely day too, Ro had a whale of a time being the only dog between 4 people and all the attention and food that that entailed :005:  The weather was fantastic and it was great to meet some new people, I was very taken with Pearl too, she's gorgeous :luv:  I only bought 2 more slip leads and got a bargain on a fleece shooting jacket, there was a lot of nice stuff there though; I hadn't been to this particular game fair before but I would definitely go back again next year.

I think that puts Pearl in the fluesy category since she was anyones who'd give her a bit of attention :005:

As ever the Game Fair at WP didn't disappoint, I do think it was quite a bit bigger than last year with more shopping to be had :shades:  it was fab to get to meet so many COL's and your dogs - Bo was beautiful and so well behaved, as was Willlow, Amber and Muswell but young Sydney stole the day for me :luv: :luv: 

Ozzie and George seemed to be enjoying their day out, too......Miss J and Miss P spent the day together and if Jinley was anything like Pearl she slept the whole way to Devon!  AND was still dopey on Sunday :banana: 

As if I hadn't shopped enough......I'm now off to purchase a rather fabulous handbag thank you Helen :D :005:

See you all next year - or at Cannock Chase in a couple of weeks :D

Ozzie and George had a lovely day their favourite was the food alley I think as they spent a good time hoovering up chips  :005:. Ozzie went all of a quiver ( more like a jelly really) when she met a ferret wasn't sure of it all and George sat with his head cocked to one side for a good two minutes looking at realistic crow that cawed which was on one of the stands. They did have a lie in, they had breakfast and a trot around the garden at 7 then went back to bed till 9 :D
It cost me a bit more than I expected the Pork Scratchings being the culprit as I managed to lose half a molar yesterday OUCH eating one. So off to the dentist I go. :'(
