MARLOW 25.1.2004


A first for us - a joint show with another club, the heart of England Hamster Club. It was also another first for me, an afternoon show only which meant it kept us all on our toes!
Thanks to the judges, book stewards, pen stewards, sales team, the kitchen team and on my own behalf many thanks to Jean Tye who waded in and helped when I most needed it - writing out the Prize Cards etc. Being 3 people on the same day (Show Manager, Kitchen Manager and the Show Sec) wasn't always easy as I was not always sure which I was at the time.
There was a great deal of interest from the public (of which there were many) so all in all it was a very busy show. Congratulations to Sue Broadley for winning B.I.S. Syrian with a cream bred by Sylvia Smith and to Esther Hornett for B.I.S. in Dwarfs.
It should be remembered that only points gained in SYRIANS will count in the Exhibitor of the Year Competition as the Dwarf section was judged under BHA Rules - hence the joint show.
I must thank everyone who came along to support a very tentative venture into working with another club to hold shows.
