Fabapocalypse 35 Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 I used to go to this show every year to race my terriers, and it was good fun. Over the last few years entries for the terrier and lurcher showing sections fell away (why, I couldn't possibly comment - I didn't "do" showing) and for the last couple of years they've held a kind of "all dogs together" thing class by class in the main ring, without separate showing for terriers and lurchers. You bought a bunch of raffle tickets ringside and handed them in one at a time when you wanted to enter a class... the atmosphere wasn't the same. The last couple of times I've been, the parking honcho has tried to get me to park my non-4WD ordinary road-going saloon diagonally across the world's biggest tractor ruts, whilst waving the Navarras and so forth onto the nice smooth bits! Hey ho. I didn't bother going last year. That said it does look like they're reverting to the way it used to be - and there's a number to get a schedule: "COUNTRY FAIR TERRIER LURCHER & DOG SHOW Sunday 23rd August 2009 in The Park Brent Pelham 12 noon Parades of Foxhounds & Beagles Ferret racing, Terrier racing Gundog display and scurry Sheepdog Display Display of Owls & Hawks Dog training Traditional games Egg throwing, tug of war etc. Stalls, children’s activities & rides Fairground organs Terrier & Lurcher classes from 12 noon Novelty Dog classes from 1.45 pm TEAS, BAR and BBQ Entrance: Adults £5, under 18years £2.50 and under 5years free Schedules available on: 077 962 73719" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
