News from Augustus
It are late messages from Bremen/GER. This has two reasons: On the Sunday show already, I had problems due to gastrointestinal infection. This knocked me out and I was sick for 3 days. Afterwards we found out that our computer had also been “infected” and was not cured until yesterday, Sunday.
We where looking forward to the fact of meeting good friends again, as Lenka Klimova and her son Lukas, the Hellwig family was also present and the Zimmermann family also wanted to come.
Sunday morning the alarmclock was set again at 05.00 hrs. Let the dogs out, quickly drink a cup of tea, pack everything and in the direction of the Hall. As the day before, the Hall opened at 07.00 and this time everything was in the same ring, which made a lot of things easier. Breakfast was used in the Hall and there was a good catering service with delightful sandwiches. I took a bun with scrambled eggs and coffee. This I shouldn’t have done….. Shortly after I had the first stomach cramps. 🙁 Inspite this, it was another succesive day. Our OES Bitch “Senta” became German Youth Champion and won Youth Group 1. “Prada” also became Best Of Breed on both days and was selected amongst the last 5 to 6 of FCI Group 1.
