Thanks to Steve Inch for sending this to Our Dogs. I don't think anyone will have missed the coverage for as well as this it was covered in the breed notes and also in Sally Pointon's collumn.
I think this weeks Our Dogs is the ETT Club specail edition.
I believe the headline says it all, well done everyone
Received a lovely letter from our Patron - Shirley Ellis-Jones this morning.
To The Officers and Committee
Congratulations to you all for the most excellent show last Saurday.
We were so pleased that we could attend, the atmosphere was what it should be, so much so that we hope the be at the next one.
Having in the past catered at many shows I appreciate the hard work put in by those in the kitchen to poduce quality meals and thank you for our lunch.
It was great meeting up once again with familiar faces and sharing stories of yesteryear.
I only hope that this letter of appreciation of all the hard work you all put in makes you realise that the effort was worth while.
Give yourselves a big pat on the back.
Best wishes for the future.
Shirley Ellis-Jones
Patron.

It was lovely seeing Ted and Shirley again in the middle of the action .....with the breed they are devoted to. I know they both thoroughly enjoyed it.
Great !Hope to see them again!
Great guys.sorry to miss them
Great photo. Nice to see the club patron -Shirley Ellis-Jones - taking centre stage. I gather she really enjoyed the day.
They certainly did. I had a phone call from one of their friends yesterday and she told me that they had rung her and told her how much they had enjoyed the day.
I spoke to Ted yesterday and he was buzzing
Thank you all so much for making their day out so memorable. Xxxx
I don't suppose you have one where my eyes are open do you? lol
And yours truly managed not to be in it. Good result and photo!

BEST IN SHOW : Ch Witchstone Minnehaha Judge: Derfel OwenIf you are attending the club show on Saturday please take a few minutes to look at the designs for the proposed new club logo. The talented ladies who produced this at their own expense will be there to answer any questions you may have.
It's the Clubs 80th Anniversary Championship Show this week end and with an entry of 76 dogs making 111 entries over the whole show it is promising to be a good one. Ryan Ross judging the Special Award Classes has an entry of 29 and the remaining 82 being judged by Breed Specialist Derfel Owen I think this must be one of the biggest entries in a long time. I hope you will all join us in a glass of Prosecco to celebrate. A piece of what has become Nessie Love's celebratory cake will be given to you to take home - please collect a piece as you leave. Looking forward to seeing you all and have a safe journey.
Good luck to everyone attending! So sorry that I cannot be there with you to celebrate x
Excuses, excuses, excuses, tut tut! 😯😯 we will miss you.
Brill!!
Great entry. Will need to find a bigger hall if the numbers keep growing !

Many newcomers and even those who have been in the club a while do not know the background of Johnny Richardson’s singing career and how the decision was made for the ‘Candleflame’ CD’s in the raffle at the club show. I am one of those people so I thought I would do a bit of delving
Before there was ETTs, there was Music.
Our JR, John or Johnny, whichever name you prefer, in the years 1972- 1976, was a full time professional lead singer in a Cabaret trio.
Based in London, where he was living, The Brothers Love extensively toured London and the Home Counties, appearing in Supper Clubs.
They also had residency tours in Paris, Stockholm, Berlin and in Italy and Spain.
It was the glam rock era and high platform boots, long hair, heavy eye makeup, satin suits, sequins, feathers and bugle beads were the order of the day.
Their act, with intricately choreographed dance moves featured the music of Rodgers & Hart/ Hammerstein, Sondheim, Motown, Lennon/McCartney, popular songs of the day, and from the British and American Songbooks.
The group disbanded in 1976 with the upsurge of Disco.
Producer, Paul Macey has pulled together songs from JR's previous album to create this one off project with ONLY 5 copies available to us to celebrate 80 years of the ETT club's existence.
If you won't be at the show but wish to be in the raffle, message me please, and I'll allocate you a ticket.
Here's a teaser of what's on the album.
18 tracks, including, The Impossible Dream, I'm The Urban Spaceman, if We Hold On Together, A House Is Not A Home, Somewhere, National Express, I'd Rather Leave While I'm In love etc.
Johnny says, 'please buy a ticket to assist Club funds, all proceeds from this raffle will go towards the smooth running of the club and shows and ETT welfare.
I am even sneakily going to print one of his album covers.
The next big club event is the club Championship Show. We have had a super entry (numbers to follow). A big thank you to everyone who has sponsored some of the events. We are hoping for a great day. I would like to appeal once again for raffle prizes - we had a great one last year. Also raffle tickets are now on sale for the chance to win one of 5 CD's kindly donated by Johnny Richardson - a compilation of his songs in a specially designed cover to commemorate the clubs 80th Anniversary. If you are not coming to the show tickets can be purchased by contacting myself (Patricia Newton) - £5 per ticket. All monies raised from these events go towards the smooth running of the club and shows.
A huge thank you from the committee for everyone who has helped on the ETT booth at Excel this week end. Your help is very much appreciated. A tiring but rewarding time. Another successful week-end.
Message from Kim Ross.
We had another fantastic day today at Discover Dogs at The Excel London, unbelievably the crowds were bigger than yesterday but I’m sure everyone went away totally in love with the ETTs, massive thank you to Jonny N, Charlotte & Sid and Susan B, brilliant help, very very special thanks to the babies too the lovely Twiggy (Lucinda Pelugias hi), Vivienne, Dexter and Milo and last but by no means least our beautiful princess Pepsi xx
A good time was had by all on the ETT booth at Excel today/ Well done everyone. If you missed it today there will be a re run tomorrow.
Remember this week-end 20th and 21st it's Discover Dogs at Excel in London. Kim and Ryan Ross are overseeing the booth with helpers Paul and Vicky Williams, Charlotte Ramsden and Sid, Mal Hennessey and Susan Bassett who are all becoming stalwarts in the promotion of the breed. They hope to see as many people as possible there.
Could someone do me a report for The Our Dogs breed notes please ? Thank you. Kim Ross Charlotte
Entries for the club show have now closed. Hope everyone is looking forward to it. Could I please once again ask you to bring a raffle prize. We had a brilliant raffle last year and it would be lovely to do the same this year. As is usual at the shows we usually have another form of fundraising (remember Johnnie's shirt reveal). This year we have gone for something different in the form of a second raffle to run alongside the normal raffle. Tickets for this raffle will cost £5 per ticket and we will have 4 prizes and every prize is the same. Johnny has come to the rescue again and donated 4 CD's with a compilation of his songs (yes he sings as well). We have decided to call the CD 'Candleflame' Anyone attending the show will be able to buy a ticket there but if you would like a chance to win one you can buy a raffle ticket on line. Just message me. All raffle tickets sold will go together with the ones sold on the day. As you can see it has been specially dedicated to 80 years of the club. A sample of some of the songs A house is not a home, I'm the urban Spaceman, Getting ready for love In the winter, The beginning of the end , I'd rather leave while I'm in love, Learn to say goodbye.
