Eek this thread is getting very confusing. Can this one stay on topic (October walk, Outwoods) and if you want to sort a walk out elsewhere start a new thread? Any newbie looking for the October Walk will be like this by now! I might have a tidy up later and remove non related posts.

Thanks Tracy. I've deleted a few Elvaston posts cos it was getting mighty confusing in here. Feel free to start new topics on any events/walks/dog shows you want to do to, much less than having two subjects running in one thread!

We are not running in any marathon on Sunday (or any other day for that matter - too much like healthy ;D).
But we will be at the walk on Sunday - see you all there.

Should be a fun walk and we hope to be there. Jasper hasn't seen Troy for a while so he's due a 'Beast-Fix'. I seem to recollect that Mack is a bit of a Jasper clone so we should get some good B&W greyhound piccys.
Jen - If you're coming from Derby, get off the M1 at jnct 23 towards Loughborough. Turn RIGHT at the first set of lights (Snells Nook Lane). Straight over the next set of lights ( on to Woodhouse Lane). Car park is just over 1mile on your left (at the top of a hill).
For those coming from the opposite direction, Breakback Road is the same road as Woodhouse Lane except it changes name about half way (That's Leicestershire for you!)
Fingers & toes crossed that nothing else crops up for sunday.

What brilliant photos,and what a lovely day again,can't believe we had sunshine again 8-)It was lovely to meet Chris and the Beastly Beasts they are true celebs.So impressed at the cool contolled way he handles them all.Rosie is absolutely gorgous what a star.Suggs as usual got into loco mode and dragged me ahead of everyone,I think he gets a bit stressed if he's surrounded by people and dogs.Thanks to Sholly's mum for swapping dogs for a while to give me a break. :)I feel guilty as I was agitating for a longer walk and chickened out,I've had a really nasty virus and didn't have the energy to by dragged around by Suggs anymore,he's a big strong boy. :oThanks to Jen for collecting me when we embarassingly ran out of petrol again . and all the offers of help. it. ;D By the way for those who missed it the highlights of the day had to be Jen doing stunts with Sol which involved lying on the floor with her legs in the air and Katy returning the lost terrier to its owner,wrong terrier she had practically kidnapped someone elses ;D

Great pics Alison. Can I steal the one with Rosie?
All The Beastly Beasts are crashed out now.
It was great to see people we knew and meet some new faces. Thank you to everyone that bought badges and stickers - nearly £20 for the hounds!!
Also thank you to everyone that said nice things about the BeastBus - if it makes one person look and rehome a hound it's done it's job.
And thank you to everyone for being so good with Rosie. I wasn't totally sure what she was going to be like, but today - just mixing with other dogs - will have done her a lot of good.
BeastBlog will be done later - I think it might be Mack's turn seeing as he had such a lovely time with Jasper. Was it just me or did anyone else think they made a fantastic pair? ;D
Hope to see you all on the November walk.
