This weekend at Thames will be sooooo funny...& hugely embarrassing!!

Hinkley Show:

I managed to make silly errors in the Championship course, and the Olympia qualifier, but did get a 2^nd, 3^rd, 9^th (Crufts qualifier) and 20^th place with Scott & Jack over the weekend, so it was handling mistakes again.. I need to concentrate better I think!

The show was good, it always is an enjoyable show. Today I had a really good training session with Scott, and tomorrow night I have classes again.

I need some help...

As a fund raiser for the up coming EO trip where I am part of a fantastic GB team, some of us are going to bow down to the public vote and run our dogs all day Sunday in fancy dress..

The vote is on Facebook and I also believe will be featured on agilitynet.co.uk this week. If your on facebook get involved with some ideas.

GET INVOLVED - Get a chance to see the following GB team members in Fancy Dress on Sunday of the Thames Show.

Ant Clarke
Lee Gibson
Dave Leach
Shawn Young
Sian Illingworth
Jo Tristram
Lucy Osborne
Candice Robinson

How to 'Get Involved'. Comment below with your ideas (keep it reasonably clean) The idea with the most likes is what we will do. We will be collecting all weekend at thames, don't worry if you're not there you can donate by following the link that I will post below shortly. GET INVOLVED - help fund the above team members!

We are not asking for a lot, if everyone at the show & who reads this here and on facebook donated just 50p, we would have enough for all the fuel costs, Eurotunnel costs and travel to and from Austria.

Any help is really appreciated.

Thank you.

Lee

Update

Hello,

This weekend I am off to Hinkley show. Its a big show with plenty of qualifier classes and a Champ class also.

Last Tuesday the indoor classes went well, it was a good start but for the first few weeks it will be seeing how everything pans out, but i was happy at the end of the first night.

Will try and take some video's this weekend as only managed to video the bad runs last weekend, and didn't film the better runs Sunday!

Nottingham Show & LGT this week

Hello,



I am back from Nottingham show now. It was a good weekend although took me a while to get back into the swing of things with handling and timing. I may have been away teaching others some agility handling, but missing nearly 3 weeks with my own dogs meant Saturday my timing was all over the place.


Jack made the Champ final, that was about as good as it got Saturday!


However Sunday improved and I qualified Scott for the Olympia semi finals in September which is great. I also had a 6th and was part of a team that did well in the team event also.


This week is the start of my indoor classes at my new venue. At the moment it is only for people who train with me, but once established I am looking to expand to offer a whole range of classes, themed days, evenings and even competitions maybe!


WANTED: A pipe tunnel, if you have a good one to sell then please let me know. Also a heavy weave base is also wanted. Let me know if you have one to sell at a reasonable fair price.


Many Thanks.


Next up is Hinckley show at the weekend, looking forward to it already!

Back in the UK & Course Plans from Beacon Championship Show

Hello,

I am back from my trip to Finland, and what a super trip it was too. Lovely people who made me feel so welcome and enjoyed what I had to offer them. From Oulu to Lapland, Tornio and Helsinki, a great time indeed.

Now I am uploading my courses that I used at Oulu show Sunday. These are also the courses from Beacon Championship Show that I judged a couple of weekends ago.

I am loading them onto my LGT - Lee Gibson Training Facebook page. So please, if you have not already, please search LGT - Lee Gibson Training, click 'Like' and then enjoy the courses. For anyone who does not have Facebook and would like to see the course plans, please email me!

Had a little training with Scotty today, we have a important show - Nottingham at the weekend. Looking forward to it a lot!

An Update From Finland

Well touring Finland has been great so far. Ive been to Lapland, met Santa, seen husky's and reindeers. I have also been in sauna's, swam in outdoor pools, been drunk with the natives.. (or rather tried and failed to keep up) and even witnessed the country go mad when the won the ice hockey world cup.


I have of course been working hard doing seminars all week in various locations. Now I am back in Oulu judging a two day show. I have tried to help handlers get the best out of their dogs at all levels, and have met some great people along the way!


Today someone took a video of their dog and youtubed it, so here is the link. The dog had 10f but it shows the course and the competition itself.


Tomorrow is the last day of work, will be my 10th day of seminars or judging, so the legs are a bit weary at the moment!


Please 'like' my LGT Facebook page :)


Here is the video:

Seminars & Judging in Northern Finland:

This is where I am now, about to start day two of my 8 days of seminars. I am in Oulu until Sunday evening, then I move to Rovaniemi until Wednesday, and then on to Tornio until Friday. Then I head back to Oulu to judge for two days, before flying to Helsinki for 3 days. It is a busy week or so!
