The end of an era.



Dear all,

It is with great sadness that I share our recent news.

On Friday our treasured old dog Mansell died, aged 19.
To call him a dog hardly does him justice, to those who knew him he was at first a young rogue, and later an old gentleman.
Many of you graciously (and occasionally unwitting or unwillingly) shared your luncheon meat, or lunch with him.
He had a long life full of adventures, and was much loved by all.

We will miss him.

Hi Em, sorry to hear about old mansel, he's been my fishing companion many a time, I bet your dad was inconsolable. He will be missed by all.
Best wishes..
Wally and Lorraine.

Dear Emma,

I am so sorry to hear about Mansell, I will always remember him jumping up on the buggy and sitting in the middle of us as we travelled around the lake and spending many an hour kipping on the seat.
What a gent!
Best wishes
Andy & Fred

Hi Drinkalls

After speaking to Emma & Paul today I had a look at the updated website. It looks good & we can't wait until we're back there in June.

We're so sorry to read that Mansell has headed for the kennel in the sky, we know how much he meant to you all. I'll deicate my next tin of meat to him :-)

I look forward to seeing you next Friday at the show.

Best wishes Chubby & Gina
