When THAT television programme came out we all wondered how long other “fancies” would be safe. The Supreme is the cat equivalent of Crufts and this is how it was celebrated. Who will be next?

This was taken just outside the Glen of Imaal Terrier benches at Birmingham National in 1990; isn’t everybody young! Memory is going though and one person isn’t recognised so can anybody help?
Back left (toasting the photographer) is Brenda Jones & opposite her is Gareth ? Next to Gareth is Liz Gay & then comes Ro Whinn-as she was then. Norma Wilkinson, partially concealed by Sue Phillips opening a bottle of wine, is next. Then there is Linda Smith’s mum, Linda herself but who is the person between her and Brenda?

The Autumn edition of the Kennel Club Breed Record Supplement shows twenty Glen of Imaal Terriers being registered, eighteen puppies and two importations. One of the litters has “blue and brindle” as the colour but hopefully this is just a printing error. Sixteen Glens are also listed as having been eye tested and all were found to be unaffected at the date of test.

…and some really interesting things happen!
The Associate Parliamentary Group for Animal Welfare reports and OFCOM doesn’t. APGAW is lengthy so that needs to be read with (at least) two mugs of tea. OFCOM should have reported last Monday but didn’t as the BBC threw a giant flounce and got it stopped. Exactly, how come???? Just why is the BBC so desperate to object to a little programme about dogs? It is no secret now that OFCOM found that three of the Complaints were justified so why the histrionics from the Beeb? Just why is so much tax payer money being used to object again and again? IT gets more fascinating by the hour!! Reports of the non report can be read here and here
