YORKSHIRE COUNTY CAT CLUB
25 October 2008
Judge: Perri Hutchison
I would like to thank Lynda & the Committee for the kind invitation to judge at this friendly well run show and for the super Northern hospitality. I was thrilled to have Mark Pearman as my steward. I have known Mark for years, and was delighted that he offered to “do” for me. He handled the cats with confidence and great care, kept an eye on my paperwork and was great company. Thanks a million Mark, I hope you enjoyed your day with the Wrigglers! I hope we can do it again sometime!
