Sadly a poorly little mite meant a disturbed night and so a slightly depleted and tired sales force today
However, the weather was good and there was lots of poeple around. One of the highlights of the day was meeting the wonderful Ben (rehomed earlier this year) who brought his 'sister' Bronwyn and Jackie to visit Ben looked and behaved wonderfully - so much so that Jackie had to answer lots of questions about him and his breed from another interested party So wonderful to see and what a fantastic ambassador It made our day
I learnt alot about sales technique from my son, who managed to sell everything above marked price and my father who kept shouting out 'oih - that dog of yours needs some homemade biscuits' - thank goodness it was people he knew
We had to pack up at about 2pm to rescue the Florence Nightengales but in that time we managed to make GBP203.50
I spoke to lots of lovely people and our poster now has a permenant place outside the town hall, so hopefully something will come of it.
Can't thank my family enough for the time and effort they put in today  |

Well done Karen, that was a truly great effort! You must all be so chuffed! It's lovely when all the family get involved
Hope the poorly little mite is on the mend?
Healing hugs!

She hasn't told the half of it..3 very long conversations with potential staffie owners. One excellent family had the questionnaire in within a hour of getting home; homecheck being organised and hoping to meet them next Sunday! Karen and family thank you sooo much! Smithfield market next I feel. _________________ You can't train the terrier out of a terrier!

That is FANTASTIC Karen and co!!!!! We might have to borrow some of them for our Christmas events!!
I always say that talking to people is just as important as the cash raised!! Every event that RR does, raises their profile just a little bit.
Smashing effort! Healing vibes to the poorly one!! xx |
