Charge on Bring the puppy!!

I’ve got puppy training class first thing, but I can pop down afterwards (around 11ish).

Hoping to make it. Could be three of us! What time does it start? Last year we remember coming about 10ish. Is it the same this year?

Two pairs of hands available from Essex ?

DEAF GEOFF!!

8 fold on a sunny afternoon
5 dogs including Deaf Geoff… an Old English Sheepdog was a star but a bit of a leaner!!! He is in his fourth home but finally found his forever rescue home.

Widespread geography of visitors from Axminster, Holsworthy, Christchurch and Tom and Marcie from Napa Valley.
They kept me on my toes as they were vineyard owners from California ….

Thank you for visiting

Good spirits, great banter with lovely chat The background murmurings we’re wonderful to hear!
Thank you for the refreshment teams
