running late...

It seems time has caught up with me after a busy week at work doing my day job then having the monthly accounts to do for BW, I am running behind in posting my latest update.
The fitbit wars have fizzled out, Clare C had another emphatic victory over Claire B, Suzanne  - who could be excused with a sick note early on last week and myself, who frankly would never be able to keep up with the rest of the pack with the majority of my day spent at a desk.
I did suggest a weekend challenge, but got no takers which is somewhat disappointing to say the least, therefore, I will plod on with my own challenges trying to improve on my step rate each week. Maybe we peaked too soon, oh dear that does not bode well!

The Best Shopping Weekend of the Year - (according to Claire B)
So another Crufts weekend has been and gone and Beagle Welfare had their usual stand with lots of information about our rehoming centre and the work we do along with some of our merchandise for sale. I did not make it this year, but our team consisting of Clare C, Claire B, Lesley, Emily, Joan, Karen and Nigel did a cracking job for us giving out advice and selling merchandise, not forgetting the all important shopping and catching up with friends from the beagle world.
I enjoyed Crufts when I went last year to help out on the BW stand, but  even with all those thousands of dogs (particularly the beagles) I still think mine are clearly the best!

Sadly the news of the death by poisoning of poor Jagger a beautiful Irish Setter has left a dark cloud over the show, I can only imagine what Jagger's poor owners are going through after such a malicious and nasty act!

Everyone has been pretty quiet this week so far I suspect Claire C and Claire B have probably lost their voices from all that chatting at Crufts, at least their tongues and wallets got some exercise if their feet and legs didn't!
need to come up with an incentive to kick start the competition again............
