doxhope 2 Posted September 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Yip people most of you are right, he was into Bedlingtons, also ferrets, he did a lot of judging at one time too..I remember him doing an article about mesh sizes, two inch compared to two and a quarter inch, Ive never seen so much argument over a quarter of an inch in my life, I was spoaching through some adult learning courses tonight, looking for a decent digital photography course, and low and behold, Les was there, taking courses in various things. Have a look at this link, and follow it down to the course types and dates, old Les seems to be doing well for himself. http://pscm.northumberland.gov.uk/pls/portal92/docs/13585 Come on you two and a quarter inch mesh lads Quote Link to post Share on other sites
