The Saluki or Gazelle Hound club held their Limited Show last Sunday. The venue was excellent, the catering was delicious and abundant, the welfare stall was well filled and The tombola had its usual goodies. The attendance was poor. There were few hounds entered and spectators were nearly nil. Perhaps the day of our Limited show is passed And the club should look towards two Open Shows and as suggested maybe one could Be in conjunction with the AGM. I hope the new committee, after the AGM will consider the future of this show. A big thank-you to the committee for all the hard work in making the show a pleasant affair.

The judges were Mrs A. Jackson-Main (dogs) and Mr Brian Duggan (bitches). The final results were by the decision of the referee, Mrs E. Gibbins. BIS was Dr J.A. Hudson & Mrs EJ Hudsons' Caryna Kleo of Glenoak. RBIS was Mr S.J. Macro & Mrs J.M. Macro's Nefisa Saariyah. BPIS was Mrs E. Metcalfe & Mr H. Green's Altaya Tasmayah at Tasia. The BVIS was Mr P.J. Yardley's Manarah Tsora. Well done all.

We have just heard that Mrs Pam Higgins is not well. All our thoughts and prayers are with her at this time.
