:toast: Congratulations to all winners :toast:

On behalf of the N.I.L.R.C. I would like to thank Albert Titterington and everyone involved with the running of Shanes Castle Game Fair for inviting us to run the Racing and Showing, and for all the support that has been given to them in this their 1st year.

The N.I.L.R.C. would also like to thank everyone who turned up and took part, not only at shanes castle but at all events held by them this year.

Again thank you for your support and hope this will continue.

perhaps its because they support and attend most shows Graham, personally i don't enjoy them, so don't go but i've never understand why people get hot under the collar regarding showing or racing, its only a bit of summer craic , certainly not to be taken too serious.

Congratulations to all the winners!!!! and the dogs that were placed :toast: .

 

Looks like a lot of the top prizes for the racing lurcher dogs went down the M1, must be something to do with the water down that part of the world :D:D .

 

Working whippets....who is Nicky Robinson?.....must be a mistake, Graham Fyffe or is it Savage owns Bolt :boogy:

 

A big WELL DONE!!! to Brian Crothers with Nell on winning the Best In Show in the Lurchers :toast: .

I must be at the wrong show, because I got 3 rosettes and it says on them Dublin working terrier club. Should it not say shanes castle or game fair ?

 

Funny Facts, I had the same, thought it was just me had got a rogue one lol

Lawrence totally u agree with show same faces but surely dogs should be picked on what class there in for. I've seen veterian terrier class been giving to terriers that should never be winning it because there owned by someone who goes to every show same as lurcher some of them an judges to a very poor standard

      A Tribute to the late John Shaw who passed away  last Thursday 6th November 25
       
      I Am Free
      Do not grieve for me now my  friends and family, I am free
      I am following the path God Laid for me
      I took his hand when I heard him call
      I turned my back and left it all
      I could not stay another day
      To Love, to live, to hunt, to show my treasured Whippets, or play. 
      I found a peace at close of day.
      Be not burdened with the times of sorrow
      I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow
      Perhaps my time seemed all to brief
      Do not lengthen it now with undue grief
      Lift up your hearts my friends and share with me
      God wanted me now,  
      He set me free.
      John, we will love you forever and you will be sadly missed by your loving family and all your Country Sporting Fraternity and in the show ring.
      May the Angels above give you the best seat in Heaven and may your gentle soul rest in peace.
      For Country Sports Fraternity
      Margaret Mc Stay
