The strangest thing happened to me today. I was walking at lunchtime along the usual path where I very rarely see anyone and this lady came towards me without a dog (which is even more unusual) as she approaches she points at my boys and says 'Gordon Setters, my mother breeds those' . It turns out that her mother is Yvonne Hunt who breeds the Gaidheal Gordons Setters and even more of a coincidence is that my Harvey is the very lines of Boyers and Yennadons that Yvonne uses. I was amazed to discover that she is now 88 and still drives herself around to all the shows. It just goes to show how these active, lively dogs keep you forever young!
I still cant get over such a coincidence. Yvonne lives in Gloucester so for her daughter to live a few hundred yards away from me almost freaky - there are barely more than 4000 Gordons in this country at any one time so the chances of meeting someone whose mother not only breeds them but someone I know is quite incredible.
