Rock Band Party

Alan's birthday party. As usual it was Rock Band, as usual we drank too much and before we knew it it was nearly 3am!!! What a brilliant evening though - even if not everyone turned up so we now have three very large pizzas to eat!!

Keith Hills leaving do....the end of a very long era!

What a mistake it is going out on a school night - especially a work do on a school night!!!

Tonight saw yet another leaving do of yet another great friend and colleague. This time it was Keith Hill who I've worked with for the last seven years and in fact worked for at one point - he was one of the best managers I've had.

The end of an era - he has worked at 'the company' for nearly forty years. The office wont be the same without him!


Cheers Keith!

Bailey's son Pelle wins RBIG in Amsterdam

Pelle, who lives in the Netherlands has again made me the very proud co-owner of Bailey - his father.

Pelle won Reserve best in Group at the Dog of the Year Show, Amersfoort, Amsterdam.

Pelle is now seven years old but can still show like a veteran and looks fantastic! Well done Pelle and his handler Daphne.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Within just 24 hours more snow than most southerners have seen in their lifetime fell in Guildford!

Anything from 15 to 18 inches of beautiful, powdery snow bringing the whole of the South of England to a halt.

Only 20 people managed to make it into the office from a usual 300. I only live three miles away but couldnt even get out of the lane due to abandoned vehicles left at the bottom of the road!!




London came to a halt, no buses, no tubes, no trains......it was like a disaster area but in a lot of ways a whole lot of fun!!

Happy Birthday Pelle!

Today marks the seventh birthday of an incredibly successful litter. Bred by Karen Marsh by Karens boy Bailey(Hernwood Dream Mirage of Kilnrae) who lives with me and another of Karen's bitches the 'wind' litter were born.

Pelle is Netherlands Champion Kilnrae Whirlwind and such a handsome lad - and so like his dad!

His sister Sh Ch Kilnrae Zephyr is also an incredibly successful show dog in the UK and has produced the wonderful French litter of which one of them I am proud to live with - Harvey - Kilnrae French Toast of Billingham.


This photo shows Beejay (Harvey's son), Pelle (Baileys son), and Skip (Harvey's brother and Bailey's grandson) - they all live in the Netherlands.


...and this is Zephyr, Harvey's mum!
