Attended this lovely show with Manchela Paco Rabanne JW at Malvern, weather was good. Zorro won his Junior class under Martin Saunders – well pleased!
Bath Championship Show
Attended this lovely show (should be used as a benchmark for all championship shows in my opinion) with just Zorro (Manchela Paco Rabanne JW) who did us proud by winning 1st in his Junior class and then won the res cc under gundog specialist judge: Ray Strudwick (Burpham)

Devon County Show – Open Show
Super day at the first of these lovely County shows and the rain stayed off! Zorro (Manchela Paco Rabanne) won his Junior class, declared BOB under Mrs C Harris (Ilexwood) and then 2nd in a very strong gundog group under Julie Williams (Trebettyn) – not bad for a young man of just 16 months!
Devon & Cornwall Cocker Spaniel Club – Open Show
Attended this very friendly show with a good entry for specialist judge: Lucy Reader (Kaniboo)
Zorro (Manchela Paco Rabanne JW) won his Junior class and was awarded Reserve Best in Show and Best Opposite Sex in Show!
Ramona (Manchela Ramona JW) won her Open Bitch class and did one better and won BEST IN SHOW!

We came home with a nice addition to the Manchela household: Gilcar Crystal Blue (Pheobe) has come to stay with us for a while to try to learn some showmanship skills and how to eat properly. Pheobe is out of Manchela Crystal Maze, by Sh Ch Glowhill Silver Spur. Our thanks to Gill and Charlotte for letting Pheobe come to stay
South Western Gundog Club – Open Show
Went to the Matford Centre at Exeter for this well run friendly show. We had a fantastic day all round – Zorro won his junior class and best dog under Mrs Liz Harper (Pitswarren), whilst Ramona won her open class, best bitch, best of breed and RBIS under Mr Peter Harper (Pitswarren). Our Pointer, Fleur (Dalens Icicle at Manchela) was entered in Junior under Mrs Liz Harper where there were four entries and delighted us be enjoying herself (she has been very spooky and this is the first time she decided to enjoy herself). She won 2nd in her class, beaten only by her sister who also won BOB – sooooo pleased with our girl
