Humberside Cat Club

4th May 2002

My thanks to Judy, Penny and the Committee for inviting me once again to judge at this show. As always the show was well attended, though the entry was a little down. My thanks as always to Mark for accompanying me and acting as my steward.

Whilst I am always happy to discuss exhibits with their owners I am not prepared to be engaged in vitriolic barracking from by-standers who attempt to side track a conversation in which they are not included. My apologies to the exhibitor to whom I was talking for my abrupt termination of the conversation.
