Myra Thomas-Rhodes's Comments

Hi there Myra, mayfredsetters@tiscali.co.uk I hope that will get to me O.K. the setter part is in the plural
All the best Dee and the girls

Thanks for you kind words. I'm happy when my photos are enjoyed!
I hope to get out more of old photos in my albums when time will allow it. I have photos from shows from 1982 and until now... so there's a lot to choose from :-)
See you in Sweden next month!?!
All the best, Kickie & the setters

What a lovely site and your dogs look great. Always a shame just to see them in photos and not in the flesh. I remember you judging here a few years ago, maybe if you return to the UK one day I will get to meet you. Many thanks for making me your friend.

Thank you Myra , I will enjoy using the website.

Great to meet you too Myra!
Its always difficult for me at these shows, working all the time and in a constant rush. And this time it was four days in a trot.
Sorry you missed the stand we had at the show!
But you can check the bookcovers out on my website...at least some of them have setters on the cover! :-)
Hope you have a great time over here in Sweden and lets hope we meet up some other time...when hopefully I am not working constantly...

Oh I do envy you, sounds great, wish I was there......You are going on to judge are you not????
And yes I think that I would have felt the same, great film don't you just know everyone in it, in the real world????? Its a shame you are so close yet so far away.....when are you going to come back to Britain/Scotland?? Did you all get some sought of picture though that can be posted, the ''ES family'' would surely enjoy it....
We are just waiting for Saffy coming into season here, I think that she will be in too soon, I hope not, whatever happens we will hopefully have a great litter.
Dee and the girls...Will speak more later Dee

Im not very much in to showing Myra, so no Halland for me. Im more interested in working with my dogs and will just show them once or twice just to get some showresults as well.
But yes, no problem, I will do a drawing for you if you want.
Just let me know what you have in mind...
You can contact me on my private mail (also on my web-page). May be easier to discuss drawings etc that way.
I did do quite a lot of work for the Dog-world annual some years back before there was a change of editor. So you may have seen the drawings there as well.
Have a super time in Halland!

Perhaps one day we might be able to get over there!!!! I want to buy a motor home (when I get some money) in the future, so will just take off during the summer. It must have been great meeting all the different people from all round the world, how much longer are you staying??? You must still be in the ''air'' must be a big high..... have fun Dee and the girls

Great with all this sunshine over here!
At least that is what we have had since may this year down in the south.
Love it!!!!!!!!!!!
Just send an e-mail regarding drawing...:-)

Oh my heart bleeds for you!!!!I should have such a hard task to do in my life!!!!! Speak soon Dee and the girls, and hope you have a great time.

Hi Sis,
well I survived the party...just! Roxy had 6 puppies the day before and the day before that I had 8 (at least) phone calls for Irish Setters. Children back to school tomorrow. All dogs (bar Brodie) slumped on the floor around me. Madam in season, Brodie banned.

Hi Myra! Nice to see you at the show in Halland! What a strange weather... Have never seen something like that. I hope you will have another great week in Sweden and a safe trip back. All the best Jenny

Good Morning too! The Japanese Akita went Best in Show, after judging had to finished in the Judges tent! It was a terrible storm with lightning, thunder and HAIL! Seemed like the marquee might blow away too, just like Blackpool.The Irish, "Don't Blame Me," won the group, with the Gordon second then the Portuguese Water Dog, Cocker and American Cocker.
Hope you had a good trip home,

Hello Myra ! Hope that you have a nice time in Sweden and we hopefully meet again somtime in the future. / Malin P

Hello Myra

Hope you enjoyed your entry in Sweden. The Open Show was today and had an entry of 202 dogs. I have just got home from the evening barbi! it was good! I'm stewarding for Rita Bryden tomorrow so have a busy day ahead, the total entry is 396 dogs.

The catalogue for the champ show is available for sale on the ISAE website www.isae.co.uk It has the 3 generation pedigree of all the dogs entered for competition, so worth having! The KC exhibition catalogue was free to those visiting the Gallery, I'm not sure if they will send one to you but I'll check. The artist who did the 3 lifesize models is Rosemary Cook.

I'll write again after the show !

Rosie

hello Myra, well, you'll be back soon to far-away australia. hope you had a wonderful time in sweden. how was the show today? good day again for the coppers-clan? :-)

Hi there Myra,
How are you doing? Hope you are not too tired on your 'vacation'. Just thought that you may be able to give me some 'inside info' There is a judge going on the Irish Circuit from Australia he is called Wong....Do you know anything about him??? if you do what sought of setter will he be looking for......hey I know that it is like saying 'my friend is living in Australia his name is Fred, do you know him' I know that it is a long shot but you may have heard of him, and yes I know that it is a big place, but could be somewhat smaller in the dog show world.....hope to chat later even if you haven't heard of him. Dee and the girls

smile... just shows how our minds work;-))

hi myra, thanks for the welcome, i am really enjoying having an irish setter, alfie he is an absolute bundle of fun!
