Blackpool abandoned

Blackpool champ show has now been abandoned as the winds were that bad as i heard the catering tent blew in setting a chef's clothes on fire, the ambulance and fire brigade are on site and all exhibitors asked to leave so dont know what will happen now but thought our benching tent was going to take off Now am home safe and well so is Leoti she did manage to see the judge who gave her a reserve but the wind was putting so many dogs off

Re: Blackpool abandoned

Highampress are putting info on as we speak about here's the link
Higham Press Ltd - Championship Dog Show Results and Information

Hope everyone else got home safe and sound, I'm quite glad we stayed at home this year, by the looks of the results from yesterday it wasn't a huge turn out.

Take care
Sarah

Re: Blackpool abandoned

Have not long got back - tents were flying over head and onto roads there were many injuries - I stayed to help a friend get her trade stand packed away - the fire brigade were telling us all to get the hell off the showground and as we were stood another tent took off - it was bedlam - .
Anyone heard from Jo P??? I didnt get to meet up with her and dont know if she has got home ok?????
It was very scarey - a friend was an inch from being belted by a huge steel frame from one of the tents.
We didnt get judged along with many other breeds. The site look like a war had taken place!!!!!
