A day at a show is always a boost. It was lovely to be amongst like-minded people, talking mice at the recent Manchester show. Harlow is now on the horizon. Always a good buzz due to a combination of rodent fancies. I would encourage all who can get to a show to come along and view the rainbow of varieties in person. The more we can support shows, the more we can grow and spread nationwide and hopefully gather new recruits. Taking a leaf out of Phil Hall’s book, I would like to do a one-off presidents show before my term is over. I am considering a change of venue for this one off because as they say, a change is as good as a rest.
