Show Congratulations

Congratulations to [log in to see names] BIS at Sowood with a cinnamon and [log in to see names] BIS at Harlow with a siamese. Both shows had good entries.

Swinford and Show Calendar

It is the eve of Swinford as I write, and it’s an excellent entry, thanks to all who entered and everyone who has rallied with help and support. The show calendar is not only full for this year but is nicely shaping up for the next mousing season. There are welcome returns for Sheffield, Meldreth, and Swannington. It makes planning breeding and travel easier knowing so far in advance. I have already booked several hotels, mainly for the difficult winter months.

Call for Volunteers

We always need volunteers to help show secretary, judge, steward, run a kitchen, or even a show. So please consider learning the ropes if you are able. Help make the NMC secure in the hands of all rather than reliant on a few. Eggs in one basket is inherently risky. Getting judges for the bigger multi-fancy events is particularly challenging, putting them at risk of cancellation. Looking forward to seeing those who are able to attend shows through the summer months. May the best mouse win!
