It was lovely to meet so many well behaved dogs and their equally well behaved owners yesterday. :D

Massive appreciation to Murphy's Minder and her son for their wonderful hospitality (and cooking skills). Thank you very much.

Harvey and myself had a wonderful time, I'm so pleased I came along.

Hopefully the link will work and take you to the photobucket album of pictures.

Did you spot the hand of Henry's mummy coming in for the save?

There are no people pictures at present, as I will be allowing those involved to censor anything they would rather not have shown. That said, there are very few people pics really....it would appear I was more interested in the four legged friends! Oooops. I should've taken a group shot of us all.
 
I did notice the hand appearing!! :D

Y'know I didn't actually notice there weren't any people shots :o I was too busy going "Oooh there's Dax...and there's Max....and there's Isabel...and Hector" etc etc :D

Definitely got my priorities sorted :p
 
Yay - thank you for the photos, Patches, ogling now. :)

Also must extend my thanks to MM and chef son for their generosity in hosting and to everyone else for a lovely time. Madam was spark out in the car on the way home and, apart from chucking up a piece of chamois leather at 6am this morning (don't ask... :rolleyes:) has remained in bed all morning. :D

You must come to the next one, only poor Paddy could withstand the husky onslaught - as you see, Evie retreated to the bath in the hopes of putting her off. :p She carried on going even after the spangles had retired for barbecue food... :eek:
 
Fab photos! I am jealous - I must come to the next one, all the dogs look like they are having the best time ever!
 
Absolutely brilliant pictures Patches, you have got some lovely ones of Amy and Flick including Amy in full flight :D I cannot believe that Islay managed to avoid every single picture - she was there folks, I promise :D

A huge huge thank you to MurphysMinder and her lovely son for hosting us, and it was wonderful to meet everyone :)

Favourite comment of the meet-up: "you look much younger (in RL) than you do on your Facebook photos" - thank you, thank you, thank you Patches, you are my favourite HHOer now :D

Dogs (apart from mine of course) who I would have liked to take home: Mollichop's Hector (SUCH a good boy!), Patches' Harvey (how could you not love a puppy who comes to sit on your knee? :p) and Evie, Buffy and Saffy (but only if they promise not to moult :D) as all three were beautiful and have totally converted me to GSDs :D

Thanks everyone for a lovely time, and for three exhausted greyhounds who slept solidly all the way home and who have now gone straight back to sleep as soon as they got in :D
 
What fabby pictures!!:D

A big thanks again to MM and her son (and Saffy, Buffy and Evie;)) for letting us and all our mutts invade!!:D The dogs were all incredibly well beahved considering the number involved and they didn't know each other. Was lots of hooning and good natured playing going on - except Max who insisted on humping the boys:eek::eek::eek: - sorry!!:rolleyes: It was also lovely to meet you all and your dogs - I am so pleased I made the effort.:cool::D:D

The Horizontal Dog award goes to Hector:D
The Funniest Moment to Evie and Max when they realised how fast skinny dogs go......:eek::eek::D
The Biggest Sulk to Sweep - sat in a tent on his own!!:rolleyes::D

As predicted there was way more food than we could manage:rolleyes: - and surprisingly little stealing despite some covert stealth attacks going on!!:D:D:D

Thanks again to MM and was great to meet you all:D - we will have to do it again sometime!!:D

Sweep, Max and Henry were all asleep in the car from the moment they got in to when they got back here :D- they managed a mini hoon round the garden (with a dalmation!:rolleyes:) while we unpacked the car and now Sweep and Max are asleep on the sofa/armchair!!:D:D:D
 
You will note I refrained from uploading the copious amount of pictures of Max and Paddington's shenanigans! :eek:

Gazey...there are pictures of Islay but you're in those pictures with them. I'll have to have your email address and send them to you so that you can "vet" them for posting purposes. I especially like the picture of you with all the greyhounds and a few others trying to steal your burger whilst you ate it. :D

I also have a picture of Harvey-pups sat in his favourite place....your knee.

I was thinking on the way home, I do hope we didn't miss any pooping by the doggies whilst we were all busy chatting. I apologise if any of us did MM.

I think you should, his enthusiasm and persistence should not go unrecognised! :D :p

Would you mind terribly if I put a couple of the photos of Daxy-dog on her facebook album? :) Might leave out the ones of her mauling dogs by the neck... :eek:
 
Of course not. Go right ahead. I could upload the originals to your profile but I'm not sure if we're "friends" on there or not.

I forget who is who when I try to tally forum names with real names. :o
 
It was great to meet everyone, thanks MM for having us all over.

Patches, the photos are brilliant! There are some really, really good shots in there. I love the one of Pookie looking like a misery-guts it really captured his mood!!!
 
Pookie is such a character. Didn't take the other dogs long to realise (with the exception perhaps of the less brainy spangle I own) to give him a wider birth.

He reminded me of myself on a Monday morning! :D
 
Thank you MM and your son for haveing us, :D me and peawit had a great time:D
Patches the pictures are great,:D
It was lovely to meet every one and all your dogs.:D:D
 
Patches those pictures are brilliant! Can I copy some of them please? It was great to meet everyone, and the dogs were so good. Cats are still slightly traumatised, I had to forcibly extract them from my bedroom later in the day.:D Having had another busy afternoon watching all the posh dogs at the show today Evie is now absolutely zonked and snoring loudly. I still have some plastic containers here, one of Booboos and couple of BCs, and an unidentified one without a lid. I will try and get them back to you both at some time as you aren't a million miles away.
 
Feel free to copy any pictures. That applies to everyone.

I have some more of Evie, all very similar. If you want any emailing (same applies to everyone else) in a bigger file size, pm me your email addresses and I'll be happy to do so.

You live in a wonderful part of the Shropshire countryside MM. Was a pleasure to meet you, Saffy and your son. Glad you had fun at the show today.

Evie was SOOOOO funny when she dared the greyhounds to a sprint! :D

Oh go on, just post them, I am just so concious I always look horrendous in photos :o You have been warned unsuspecting viewers :D

Guess what I am having for tea now.... yes, BBQ sausages and BBQ beer! :D
 
I just got back to Naaaarfolk - I had a lovely time, thank you guys:) Especially the hostess with the mostest!;) It was great to meet everyone at last!

I loved how within two minutes of our arrival, everyone had accepted that I'm really not exaggerating about the Ninja Spaniel Raids...:D
 
Lovely! The pics obviously don't look right without a vizz in them though! :p
Glad you all had a great time. :)
 
I do think this is my favourite picture - it's so....... illustrative:D
