Thanks, looking forward to seeing you and Bronson too.

Sorry to say cannot make the open day as we go on holiday to greece two days before, trying to get son or son in law to take lucy and snowy, will be thinking of you all and am very dissapointed not to make it ourselves, we usally go away eairly september but will make sure its later next year. Hope you all have a good time and look foward to your posts to tell me what it was like. Hope you have great weather and a fantastic day.

Hi Jan, we are looking forward to the fun day, I cannot think of a better way to spend a day than surrounded by Goldens. Holly is looking forward to it too, she loves company, especially goldens. See you there

Sounds like everyone excited at the prospect of Fun Day.
Don't forget, any unwanted gifts that have found their way into your cupboards, hang on and take them for the stall. Slowly but surely gathering bits and bobs together for Jan, it all helps I'm sure.

I for one am really looking forward to meeting all the people we,ve chatted to.. I'm sure Grumpy will have a field day with the camera

I'm sure it's going to be great again

Does everyone remember the really "wet one"? Everyone in the church hall. I remember walking in to a 'sea' of Goldens, what a site!! Stays in my memory. They were all so well behaved too. Outside for the competions, then in again, dogs and owners wet through, the fragrance of " eau de wet dog" filling the air, wonderfull!!!

Can't wait.

That " wet one " was a day to remember. I never thought anyone would turn up . But they did and the hall was packed to the rafters, Din't know what " Health & Safety" would have said about that. Everyone was talking and laughing. It was likened to the air raid shelters in the Blitz. Not by me I hasten to add. But I have ben told what it was like then !!!!

Yes it was our first fun day as Hubby has to work some weekends and poor Ginnie does not 'do' laminate or non carpeted floors she gets herself in a state. so we had to leave at 1pm ish but I took loads of photographs of the people and more importantly the dogs, some of which were OK,I think Jan said there were in excess of 70 dogs in the village hall, boy, did it smell of 'wet hounds' and there was the occasional bark but NO CROSS WORDS, they all seem to known that they belong to the same breed and must behave themselves as Jan is watching them all !!!
If anyone wants a copy of the photographs let me know.

Hi All,
As we are new to the site, please could you let me know when the fun day is, so as we can book it in our diary. I would love to meet you all and so would Poppy!! Thanks

Unfortunately Chris the Fun day is restricted to our Rescue Goldens and their families two & four legged.

what is the date for this ? and venue

Have sent you a private message and will send you another flyer if you have lost your original. We do not want to publish details as it is a private function.

It is such a shame that only rescue families can attend the funday. It would of been a really nice experience to see all the rescued goldens and how they have fitted in to the families. I would of thought it would have been an ideal opportunity to invite members of the site and for everyone to meet each other, to enable people to put names to faces.

This is how it is and there are many good reasons for it to be held this way. However there is nothing to stop you having a get together of your own.

We will be there, brolly and waterproofs packed just in case
