chartpolski 20,568 Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 Skycat, have you a post code for the show ? Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skycat 6,172 Posted October 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 (edited) No, but if you look on the Showground's website: http://www.eastofengland.org.uk/ it should give you directions etc. then click on Autumn Show: I've just sent them a sh*tty email cos they haven't mentioned the lurcher show in their programme!!

skycat 6,172 Posted October 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 BIG BUMP for this Sunday...........it famously pours with rain a few days before this show, but only once in 21 years have I known it actually rain on the day of the show: that was about 17 years ago! The sun usually shines on this showground LOL. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

skycat 6,172 Posted October 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 What classes are you after: or just wanting to know? Unfortunately I don't have one on my computer as I'm not involved with the main show: I'll see if I can get something sent over to me from the printers and I'll put it up.

Guest shaheen Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 Who went today then?,number's down on previous year's i thought? Shaheen Quote Link to post Share on other sites
countrylass 0 Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 I went today, really enjoyed it great atmosphere. Was really pleased with my 15 month old bitch who had her first ever race in the unders and came second in her heat. A good friend of mine was also reserve champion in the overs straight racing. Well done Tanya and Sas, and to all other competitors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
