Massive Thanks!!

Paul & I would like to give massive thanks to everyone who made this years show a success! 

Not even a rainy day could stand in the way of Wiccs Magic and we were absolutely overwhelmed by the fact that almost everyone visitors, guests and volunteers stuck with us during the day and had a fantastic time, damp or not!   Wiccs folks are a hardy bunch!!    

It was wonderful to see so many of our beloved dogs again, and Paul & I were over the moon to see some of the dogs that we rehomed right at the start of Wiccs, 8,9 10 years ago - including a couple of dogs and families that had not been able to make the shows before - so lots of tears of joy there - especially as the dogs remembered us!!   I remember homing those dogs like it was yesterday, even down to what happened on the homechecks!  LOL!

Thank you to everyone that gave up their time to keep everyone fed and watered, man stalls, run the ring, take photos/vids, keep things running and generally just muck in where needed. 

A very special Massive thanks must got  to our 'Hero of the Year' winner, Julia, for holding the fort back at Wiccs so everyone else could be at the show, although we did manage to get her to the show under false pretenses for a little while so we could give her her award......................

It was a brilliant day.  Once again the Wiccs family have shown they are second to none!!   Thank you one and all - and SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!!!!
