Monday Posting

Ok, so I don't know why I always end up just posting on Mondays but there you go!


Had a good week and weekend.


Thursday Hoax had Agility at MAD we did a short agility course which I really enjoyed running. It was big and fast and Hoax really flew round, including nailing some nice independant contacts. I was very pleased with her this evening- although our turns seem to have been sacrificed for speed right now!

Martyn also dropped Eddy off Thurs night as we are dogsitting him whilst Becky has her babies!

Friday Becky had the twins by C-Section. Mum and babies are doing well and Martyn is now Dad to two little girls, Mia and Niamh (Neeve). Both babies are around 7lbs- how on earth did Becky do it!?!

Saturday: myself, Heather and Sophie had a lesson with my mum. We began with some jumping sections which Hoax did very nicely, she felt a bit steadier today which allowed me to get much neater turns. We then went onto weave excersises, I have posted some of these below. I was really pleased with Hoaxeys entries- she got them nicely and without me intefering. She still doesnt like me getting ahead too much though so this is something I must work on. She got really tired at the end and started to get distracted- it's annoying when that happens as I wished I had ended the session 10 mins earlier whilst I was still happy. In the end- the final excersise went pretty badly- but she was tired and there was no point in pushing her so we quit then- it felt we ended on a downer :(


Sunday was obviously Mothers day, so we went over to Walton On Thames and took Mum and Stu out to dinner. My brother came too and we went to a GBK (Gourmet Burger Kitchen) they do the BEST and BIGGEST burgers there! Afterwards we went back to Mums and had a play with Kandi- Stus new pup. She is so fantastic- full of play and no fear at all, def my kinda pup- Oh and shes cute too!
