    That's exactly how the timers work. They break a beam at the beginning, thus starting the clock, and then break the beam at the end, thus stopping the clock. All linked to a timer via radio.

    Excellent statement Terryorr. I haven't worked with dogs for over 25 years but still have 4 Lurchers, 3 of which are rescues. Because they are not worked my open season is your closed and so they chase the plastic bag and sometimes trot around the ring. Every now and again we go home with a rossette and am justly proud of my hounds. I help out at events and regularly stand out in the pouring rain or under a blistering sun for 10 hours or more (It starts before the punters arrive and finishes long after they have gone)and there is nothing worse than getting home logging onto sites such as th

    We got really lucky with free entry tickets but would have been really p****d off if I'd have had to put my hand in my pocket to get in. £2.50 for a bottle Fanta from a stall next to a Double Glazing company and a Timeshare dealer?????????? Needless to say, not impressed and wont bother again.
