We await further information on this event.

Kay Perkins has phoned with further information on the Limited Show which is being held on 19th March, at Weeks Drive Community Centre in Slough, Berkshire. The menu will be limited this year as the Committee have the AGM after the judging and we need to finish the show in a timely fashon. There will be two kinds of soup, rolls, bacon baps plus tea and coffee. The Committee would appreciate donations of cakes and don't forget to bring something for the welfare stall. Everyone is welcomed at the Show but The AGM is for paid up members of The Saluki or Gazelle Hound Club.
