Congratulations on your novice title Jason - well done. Now you can boost the restricted ranks up there.

Well done Jason!

Congratulations Jason on your dog's NRD.
Congratulations also to our former next door neighbour, Anne O'Connor, on such a great start to retrieving trials.
I am sorry that I missed the weekend but I'm looking forward to the Society's next trials at Hartley in July.
Hope to see you all there.
