Well done to the show committee for all their hard work that is shared by all members
Clarkston members would like to thank all who attended the shows and have a merry festive period, without your attendance there wouldn't be a show.
Disappointment for us to miss the all winners show as this was the first show we have missed since we started running the shows in the eighties, unfortunately Old Tom wasn't feeling well and I was on holiday. Well done to all the winners top showing lads.
Sorry no photos of the All Winners the Muir brothers were snowed under with the workload on the night.
See you all next year for the Clarkston shows.
I took the time to visit fellow club member John Murphy’s new loft set up, which is a credit to himself and the sport, all the best John, photos included in article. Thanks John for the lovely lunch and old Tom enjoyed a wee dram.
