These trials went off without a drenching, just some light drizzle on Sunday. The entry was very good and the Society thanks everyone who entered. You may recall that we had to cancel these trials last year for lack of entries. Thank you to our judges Joe Law, Graeme Parkinson and Ron Cooper.

I've taken these results from my catalogue. Please feel free to correct them if I have placings or points wrong.
Congratulations to all the winners, placegetters and finishers. And particular congratulations to Joe Vella and Blackie who were awarded a perfect score on the last run in All Age on Sunday.
It was good to see the Gundog Society's newest Life Member and Vice President Maureen Cooper running 2 dogs in All Age and a dog in Novice after a long bout of medical treatment.
Thank you to our Trials Secretary, Flo Tidswell, for another trial well planned and executed and to the property owners who were (as always) helpful and supportive. Must be the GSPs they own !!!
