Tim and Sheila packed up the Green Machine again without Gary.  They headed to Christchurch and to a small dot of a place called Kirwee.  The Southern Alps were covered in snow and Sheila complained bitterly of the cold.  Tim thought it was great and he also had fun sloshing around in the sheep poop.  Sheila moaned about poop getting on her skirt and that it was stuck between her paws.  "I wish Gary was here" sighed Timothy, "he would love it here, her complaining is getting annoying".

Poppie Perfect was not having a perfect time but she won the Gamblers Starter dog event which made up for it.
Stiff Kollar Kola got her first AD and pulled a 2nd in the Nov/Int Gamblers event.
Teesh Tha Terror got a 5th in the last Intermediate and also an AD.
Casino Vino got his AD
Manic Misty was - well Manic, but we found out later that Sheila was hiding in her fur to keep warm and Misty probably thought it was a flea driving her crazy.
Kliff tha Klown pulled a Novice 2nd, an Intermediate 3rd and got the AD.  Unfortunately he gazed adoring at Teresa the judge in the last Novice and forgot he was in the weaves.
Tornado Taya wouldn't wait for her owner.  "Gary would of known what to do" said Tim.
