My thanks and admiration to all of you
who braved the appalling weather and appeared at the show,
as you can see absentees were low. I was amazed at the condition and
presentation of many of the Irish, you clearly worked very hard. On the
down side found too many suspect teeth and gay tails. However I was
proud
to judge such a quality entry with some
outstanding dogs.
