American Pharoah Resin

Completely forgot to blog this (bad Cat)

Anyway a better picture has emerged of the American Pharoah gallery piece:

I KNOW! STUNNING!

O and whilst we are on the subject this article has a picture of American Pharoah in box (although it also has horrible nasty pop ups):

Introducing Zeus

I will admit this RubberNedz obsession is getting a bit out of hand now...

So meet number four in the collection, the incredible, the wonderful, the mighty, Zeus

Donna has seriously outdone herself with him, he is absolutely STUNNING! He is huge and rubbery and has a fluffy mane and a horn and he is AMAZING

As you can probably tell he doesn't actually have a stand yet, so had to use a disguised box to make him stand up!

Look at his adorable face!

O and apparently coffee works quite well to make him stand also

Lah Di Dah Live

Wow....I'm definitely still recovering from this show, it was intense, but totally worth it.

To put this into context, Laura and I filled an entire show, with 265 classes with only British & Irish breeds of models. These models normally go into just a few classes at each show, so this was amazing, and don't be fooled into thinking we had loads of empty classes, our judges will testify to how strong the competition was!

Unfortunately I spent the entire day running around like a complete crazy person and therefore failed to get loads of pictures, I did manage to photograph all the champions though.

So for the pictures I did take please visit: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10153574203645155.1073741968.689360154&type=1&l=ca8de3906f

And here are the section and overall champions:
