Is that another CD for you too Pam ?
Hope you are enjoying your new home - do you feel well and truly settled in yet?

Good luck all of you showing this week - no more for us till after Christmas just going on Rory's training day on 30 November.   Wendy

Hi Folks!!!!

Oooooo, I LOVE Ceilidh Music!!! I went to a dinner dance in Hampden for Hogmany last year. It was a Ceilidh Band that played there, it was a great night. People just love to get up & have a good dance. If anyone hasn't been to a night before I would thoroughly recommend it!!!!

So, is anyone entered at Waverley on Sunday? I will be there. Doors Open at 10am with the Judging starting at 10.30am. We are class 11 in ring 1.

Pam

Thanks.....  will it be a "signed" copy?
Mo

Looks like my agent is working well :)  I'll bring you a copy of our new CD to the next meeting Mo

 

take care

 

John

Mo - just ask him, either through this site or his email or give him a ring.  I am sure he will be delighted to sell his CD's.  Anybody having a wedding, celebration or whatever they are a good live band to have.  

Wendy no adverts on here  except by the express permission of the administrators of this site?

So where do we get this CD...Johns music is my type+++++  my uncle played the fiddle.and listened to Robbie Sheperard  every Saturday even although he lived in England and could hardly hear it..  He also made fiddles for bands  and children  ..   so it is in my blood

If you want to hear more of John (and his world famous band) playing Scottish folk music  (you're alright he doesn't sing solo) buy his CD - he might even sign your copy for you.
It is a good one to listen to and sing along with while driving.  Don't let him know who told you !!

Hi,

Judge is Des Hodgkinson and we have 3 Classes -

11 - Special Yearling (D/B)

12 - Limit (D/B)

13 - Open (D/B)

Schedule - http://printmatters.info/printmatters3/dogshow/schedules/HPRDC8/classes.pdf

Entry Form - http://printmatters.info/printmatters3/dogshow/schedules/HPRDC8/entryform.pdf

I don't usually make it to this show as it normally falls right on my birthday but it's a bit later this year so I will definitely be going.

Why don't we ALL enter & make a day of it - a mini Xmas Celebration perhaps with a Munster Mingle afterwards?????

Pam & Elvis

Wendy,

 I'm afraid its our house. The strange looking filled in door/window was uncovered when the plasterboard was removed. It must have been done a long time ago as the gap filled in with stone using a lime mortar.

Gill,  love to see Elie and Kizzie.   Will see you guys at show on 8th Nov where we can arrange a date or two.

 

Hi Vicky
Isla is looking  good  were you at Midlands Counties?  if you were how did you do?
Mo

 

Couple of Videos at Logie land taken today at scottishmunsters

Mo

Is that a house or prison - once you get in you can't get out !!
Carol is that your new place or Pam's  ?
Someone's going to be busy.  Don' forget to post pictures when it's finished.
We've done several houses in our time  looking very similar to your picture - a real messy one was when we took out the whole chimney breast  - the smell of soot and muck for weeks.
Mo you didn't answer my question was it a special occasion or a special birthday -
cos even I don't have 25 for lunch.  You must acquire and wicker shopping basket like the ladies of Ilkley have who go out to lunch at Betty's Tea Rooms at least once a week !!

Pam,

  Hope the house move has gone okay.  What ever you do dont look behind the skirting board.  Our skirting crumbled to dust because of woodworm which was spread toallthe battening behind the plasterboard. We were lucky! in that only one wall was plaster boarded and the floor is concrete.

 

 

Hi Not fully retired..still on holiday till 11 November   then we will see?
I wanted to go to that sminar  it sounds really good  as usuall did
not get organized..never mind Gill can tell all

Mo

Good Luck to all those going to Midland Counties, I wont be there as I am away at a training seminar all weekend in Edinburgh.

Gill

Come on you guys you haven't kept me informed ...  Mo has 25 for lunch ?? why,
was it something special - are you fully 'retired' now?  Have you had a special birthday ??
Pam moved into a new flat - hope it soon feels like home Pam and as for Elvis it's the walks that more important than the house - and they do curl up fairly small  !!
Nice to hear you have new members joining your munster mingles. 
I'm setting off in a little while for Midland Counties.   Also have Yorkshire Gun on Sunday.
Ruby's neck hair still a little short and spiky and some days she eats ok others it down to bribery and corruption.
Hope you and your dogs are all well.   Cheers  Wendy

Wow lot going on today.

Pam congratulations on the new flat is it close to where you lived before?

Mo, does that make you a lady that lunches?

Carole your girls must think xmas has come early, Ellie and kizzie would love to come visit.

Gill

Hi Pam
thanks for the invite for wine and Nibbles.. can I bring puppies with me they are good at nibbles.
Dell site 3 weeks at least waiting time(It is a customised build)
but they sent me an email  ETA on or before 7/11/2008 great....

Mo

Hi,

I started moving some of my stuff last night, so hopefully with the help of my mum, sister & brother in law we will get the rest shifted this afternoon & I will be all done in time for my friends coming round for wine & nibbles!!!LOL

Mo, sounds like you had a lovely day yesterday. Can't wait to see your new laptop, when will it be delivered?

A girls only day sounds like a good plan Carole, less hassle that way. Maybe all "The Boys" can meet up for some fun of their own??!!! Game of Pool & a couple of pints anyone??!!!LOL

Pam

Pam,  for your new flat. We hope the flitting goes well.

Mo glad you enjoyed your lunch.

I,m looking forward to inviting you guys for a visit as some agility equipment has arrived.  I have a dilemma though as Skye is due to come into season soon (6.5 months sincs last one) so dont wont to be inviting all you boy dogs in case you get the wrong idea.

I could arrange a girlies only day first. 

 

 

Yesterday went well..about 25 people came to lunch ..ate till we bust..lovely present  so ordered on Dell site.....all singing  danceing laptop..cannot wait for it to arrive...so now on holiday till 11/11/2008?/  then??

Mo

Ooh, I just love moving house (that's why I keep moving lol!) It gives me an excuse to throw out things I would normally keep. The first couple of nights are the strangest. You start to think that you really don't like it there as all the sounds are different, but you get over that very soon.

 

I might be getting visitors this weekend (definately getting Jenni and Elise next weekend - Jenni's birthday!) The people that took Krishna might be visiting for a chat about munsters. Looking forward to it. I'd go there but the part hasn't arrived for my car yet. It has to ordered specially. Next car will be a run of the mill common car.............

 

 

Morning,

Happy Belated Birthday to Seska & all the littermates!!! Can't believe she's 4 already, time just flies by!!!

Mo, how did ysterday go?

Well, I got the keys to my new flat last night, should be all moved in by tonight!!! Very Excited, I have NEVER lived on my own before. I can't wait to get in & settled. It's going to be great to have my own space. Don't know how Elvis will like not being able to run in & out of the garden but I'm sure he'll get used to it!!!

What does everyone have planned for the weekend, anything exciting?

Good Luck to everyone going to Midland Counties tomorrow. I am entered but I won't make it because I am moving!!!

Pam

Big thank you to Erin for providing the wonderful entertainment last night a star as always.

Gill

....to Seska and all her litter mates. 4 years old today. Doesn't time fly???

I'd love to see the videos but don't have broadband, so I hope they are good?!?!?!?!?

Sometimes the photos don't even load up. Time for a new computer maybe? And broadband?!? Birthday coming up soon (well, a couple of months yet, leaving time for kids to save up....LOL!)

The complete video taken at Logie Land and Zoo is now on at scottishmunsters
it is a big file  so only watch if you have fast Broadband
Mo

Good Morning Folks,

Had a Brilliant time yesterday, it was great to see everyone & the dogs certainly enjoyed themselves. It was a shame that the weather wasn't great (well, actually that's an understatement - it was HORRIBLE!!LOL ) but I think it was still a succesful meet & the bacon butties & cakes after the walk certainly helped keep everyone smiling!!!hee hee

Elvis was knacked last night, he toddled off to bed at 9pm & slept right through til 6 this morning.

Love the video Mo. Can't wait to see some more pics too.

Hope everyone else enjoyed it as much as I did & I look forward to our next meet.

Will need to sort out some dates & find out when suits everyone (or of not, as many as possible) for our next gathering. Hopefully we can make it a regular thing.

Pam

Thanks Mo and munster minglers - appreciate being able to see 'my' boy out at play and enjoying himself with all your lovely munsters.  We had a little re-union ourselves this weekend, Milo from Beverley and Grace from North Wales came to visit.  Charlie from Liverpool was also joining us but we had a mix up over the date.  Remi coming up from London in November.  I really do love seeing Lila's babies all grown up,  to hear and see how happy both owners and dogs are, it is what having a litter is all about for me.  Attached some pics we took.  Milo doing his 'stand', Grace in the stream, and the family line up.  I certainly think we achieved a 'type'.  

Munster bash today..weather horrible+++  company good..food even beter??

Wee video at of these three Gillie, Smiler,and ?

Mo

we were

at agility this morning as we hadnt entered tay valley but did go later to borrow ellie for juniors . [erin and ellie came 2nd which is great seens how she has never handled her before and she can be kai like!!!] ellie won 1st class followed by gayle young boy brodie then gayles ruffle won other lass and best of breed. so well done gayle. this was the sight in the tay today. my firends hubby is in charge of this rig which has been in port for a month or so now and i asked him to tell us when it was leaving so jason could see it as he loves things like that and today was the day so eric took some pics of it.

I didn't make it today. I would only have had one dog with me anyway as Pepsi is on day 15....... don't think anyone would have thanked me for turning up with her. Well maybe Chance would have ....... I hope you did well Gill. Were there any other munsters there?

 

Anyway, I went out to my car on Thursday to find a huge oil puddle underneath it. The sump has gone so the car is going nowhere. Looks like I'm stuck with the bus again for a while.

 

Jenni is coming down for a day or two soon, bringing the little monster (2 legged variety...) and will then be back down for New Year for a few more days so I'm busy trying to clear the spare room. Not easy when it is full of boxes and, well I can only describe some of the stuff and junk. Claire will be back at her dads next week so I might be able to get more done without her 'help'

 

Glad to hear that all the pups are sold, Mo. I did wonder how the credit crunch would affect things.

Four new pics of pups I still have here  @

so hit "previous" to see all
Mo

All puppies have found new families   Still have 4  here   although 1 to go today
so  3 for a wee while  all good fun
Good luck Gill at Tay valley
Mo

Heading up to Tay Valley , hope to see some of you there. Gill
