THE COLOURPOINT CAT CLUB, SATURDAY, 8TH JANUARY, 2011

Many thanks go to Kay and the committee of the Colourpoint Cat Club for their kind invitation to judge. My thanks also go to Suzzanna Heath who kindly stewarded for me; and also to Callum Ellis who is taking part in the youth scheme. Thank you Callum for all your hard work. I hope you enjoyed your day. Suzzanna thank you for coming to steward for me. I really enjoyed our day together and look forward to working with you again soon. Well as soon as your leg is out of plaster! I hope you are soon feeling better and are more mobile. Look after yourself.
