These are my last notes as President of the NMC, a role that I have very much enjoyed. My only regret was the Covid pandemic, and family illness, which made it difficult for me to attend shows.
Congratulations to [log in to see names] on his BIS double, Meldreth and Swinford. Maybe a treble coming up. I understand the entry was very good at Swinford.
I watched some of the England Ladies winning the European Cup, which reminded me of Percy Ashley taking a ladies’ football team to the Middle East and Europe in the 1960s. Percy was a top mouse exhibitor and specialised in Black Eyed Whites. In 1933 he had a Triple Champion with one.
I hope everyone is coping with the second batch of hot weather. I moved my stock into the garage with a couple of blowers on.
Finally, I would like to wish all exhibitors every success for the rest of the year and for 2023.
