[AlbertJ 569]

Thanks folks for all the input. Vermin catcher with his many hidden talents has come up with some great ideas for prizes on the day....more to follow. Hopefully it'll kick start the sunday off for a great day of fun, craic and banter for everyone!!!!

 

 

Well done Dazzam - with being a line judge and now an event organiser you are in danger of becoming part of the establishment - instead of how we first met - by you slagging me off in a post that got some 2,000 views! Seriously thanks for coming forward to bring back a fun event for the fair.

Thanks to Steven McGonigal Deben have out up some prizes for the event which will now be known as the Game Fair Ferret Championship - so bring your ferret to be crowned Game Fair Champion. Ideas have also flooded in as to how this could be grown in future years.

Albert ,have you actually ever see him do anything? he claims to be my hunting partner and he does turn up on cold frosty mornings and goes out with us. But sadly that's all I can really say as to the rest of his input for a days ferreting. Last time we were out he actually lifted the spade when a ferret had killed under ground and my hopes soared then they were knocked back when he asked "was the spade left or right handed?" and put it back!
