Shipley Staffords 2 0 Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 Looking forward to the show & watching many new dogs run the lure & take part in the long jump etc,cheers all Terry. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mooshka 22 Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 I think I will pop along to this show as there will be some racing.. Does anyone know what the distance might be? And is the racing after the showing or before? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ghostlyease 17 Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Im pretty sure we are starting the running after the showing, this way you wont get all the show dogs concentrating on the lure, we are also doing long jump, that we will be running all day. The racing will be a minimum of 100 meters, but once we have pegged out the course and made sure we have enough netting we may get a longer run in, we do have to make sure we have enough stopping distance for the long dogs too of course so until we actually get there and put the netting up its really hard to say but it will be a minimum of 100 meters.

Lucy 0 Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Ghostlyease is spot on - the racing will start after the terrier and lurcher championships. (The terrier & lurcher classes start at midday). There may still be some "fun" classes going on in the fun show (waggy tail and all that stuff), but hopefully that'll be far enough away not to be disturbed by the racing. It's a pretty big field, so there's plenty of room to spread out! (You can google it too see - CM3 4HL) And as Ghostlyease says, the Long Jump will be going on all day. Cheers all Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lurcher lass 9 Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 So many kind people have rung me today... but for anyone who hasn't rung up about the advert in the paper - the show is on 18TH JULY. That is the 18TH JULY So sorry about the mis-print. It is the 18th July though, so please make sure that's the day you come to the... WOODHAM FERRERS & BICKNACRE TERRIER, LURCHER & FERRET SHOW 18TH JULY 2009 (SATURDAY) Terrier & Lurcher judging starts at noon. (Ferrets at 2pm) Loads of qualifiers, including Chatsworth, Countryman's, East Anglain, Heart of Wales, Welsh Valleys, Scottish, Pride of The Peaks, Bull Cross qualifers and more! Fun classes (best condition, waggiest tail, handsome this and pretty that etc) start at 11am in case you want a "warm-up". All the usual terrier & lurcher classes and we may include some obedience (yes, I've been reading other topics in this forum!) Excellent judges too. ACES are coming too - it's well known what a brilliant job they do, so I don't need say anymore about the racing and agility! Then there'll be ferret racing too - got a lad coming from Derbyshire to do that with all the stuff (I was going to say "kit" but that would be an obvious pun!) Plenty of prizes (as always), but bring a bottle - sorry, no beer tent after all. For us, it's about supporting working dogs and countryside activities - no frills. One final message - it's on the 18th July!! Cheers 07703 170512 hi mate, whats the adress that will be held at, nearest train station etc and also is the an enterece fee? soory for the spot light interveiw lol all the best lurcher lass Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Make sure you don't go to South Woodham Ferrers though because it's in the village of Woodham Ferrers! No entrance fee, but small charge for schedules instead (docking law and all that!) Nearest train station - South Woodham Ferrers, then a number 36 bus to Lodge Road in Woodham Ferrers. It is only a mile or so from the train station, but it's not a good walk - no pavement and busy road. Hope you can make it. Cheers L Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ghostlyease 17 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 ACES had a great day the day was in aid of charity so ACES donated the money taken at both the long jump and the running to the charities that were being supported by the show, once the running got off to a start it went really well, we had some really good times as well as some very entertaining group races, funny how competative people can be one they get going, lol. I enjoyed handing some lovely dogs on the day although my fave had to be the little white pup that ran near the end of the day, could have taken that home quite happily! Hope everyone had fun.
