It was a girlie weekend, as it was myself, Tasha & Eleanor along with the munsters which started off on Friday afternoon in Monmouth. We camped Friday and Saturday night, competing in the agility on the Saturday. Beautiful sunny days but still quite cold overnight, I think we all could have done with a few extra layers!
The agility was held on Vauxhall Fields, next to the river Wye and only a short walk in to the historic town of Monmouth, a fabulous venue.
An early start on Saturday where Maddie and Trio competed in the Jumping, Maddie having a clear round and Trio collecting a few time faults. Maddie ended up just outside the placings, but did come home with a clear round rosette.

Two agility classes later in the day, Trio sadly missed the entry for the seesaw, as Tasha slipped on the approach and so picked up 5 faults which would otherwise have been a good clear round. Maddie also picked up 5 faults on the weave, but was very pleased with how the dogs had run. The last class, we also both picked up some faults as did quite a few dogs - I think there was a BBQ going on in that cormer of the ring and the dogs went around with noses in the air for half of the course!
We had to be organised Saturday evening as we were going to be travelling up to the LMC Champ show on the Sunday morning. A quick pack up of the tent, early Sunday morning and driving off as many were driving on for the day felt a bit strange.
We had quite a good journey and arrived not long after they had started judging the dogs, again the sun was shinning so we were able to put a blanket down and sit ringside to watch and prepare. It was lovely to catch up with friends again and put some names to faces!

A lovely relaxed day where we came home with a lovely collection of rosettes. Best of all Eleanor & Tasha won their handling classes, both doing a really good job. Very proud of them all.
The world's a better place when the sun shines! That weekend looked great fun and many congratulations to you all on some great results. That's a lovely last pic particularly - that wall in your conservatory must be filling up fast!
