Does anyone on here live in the edinburgh area or even drives or works in the area? Is it raining heavily there? It's been pretty bad in where I live ( about half way between glasgow and edinburgh) for the past few days and glasgow has been horendous, so I was wondering what edinburgh is like.

Anyone know when they put up the marquees for the rings and benches? If they're not up by now and it has been raining there like it has been here then SKC could just be a mud bath! They'll just put the marquees over the sodden ground and it won't get a chance to dry out. I dread to think what it's going to be like come Sunday after the rings have been used on the saturday and my girl is a pure white lhasa so her coat will soak up the mud - urgh!

I am roughly in your area I think. I am unsure what the weather has been like on the East side, but will have been like here I think. The Tents should be up by now and hopefully the rings will be okay, but surrounding area will be rather muddy

I am so glad we don't show our Newfies anymore, the stress of trying to keep them clean in this weather!!

Well are you back yet? Was it a mud bath? How did you all do?

Come on we need to know

Back as well. 4th in PGB due to overheard conversation at the Welsh show but hey another day My breed was supposed to be in after the Peke's but Peke judge was not well and replacement judge was still doing Standard Poodles SO we were changed to outside ring Was bright and dry but very windy for poor Cresteds naked butts

Hi - we're back too - Baggio came second in Open Dog but was called back in the challenge and got reserve dog, Calli won Open Bitch but was beaten in the challenge - and Neo (the little star!) got Best Puppy Dog! Thoroughly enjoyed the show and the weather, and it was great to meet Clueless, who spotted Calli and asked if I was from this forum - I could never remain anonymous walking round with the bergies even if I wanted!

But .......... when we got back to our bench some b-----d had stolen our grooming table/trolley on wheels and so the Show Manager arranged for our car to be escorted inside the showground so that we could load everything up instead of me and Emma making a dozen trips to the car park and back. Took the shine off the day a bit

As you said I spotted the dogfelt a pratt asking if you were on Petforum, but soo glad I did. It was lovely meeting you, your daughter and lovely dogs. What a bummer, I cannot believe someone would steal your trolley I hope the bloody wheels fall off it Barstewards that they are

Val sorry hear about your trolley , and well done with the bergies and Neo was wonderful did you get him a rosette ?
