From a list that I'm on.

Peter Mann has resigned as chairman of Crufts.

The KC is said to have issued a statement to the dog papers.

What does this mean - trouble in Paradise?

BJ is this information reliable? If so - major upset, it must be serious for Peter Mann to resign just before Crufts. I wonder whether it will maek the dog papers this week?

Here's what's going on from the Times. Tis all nastiness. What a surprise!

The Times Article

So its all over Joyce Manns breeding record in the sixties & sevenities. And we were only saying the other day (Beejay & I) how things that were quite normal & acceptable a number of years ago are now frowned upon.

Still it seems a bit harsh to judge what somebody did 40-30 years ago through todays eyes and against todays moral code.

More victims of hate campaigns and the anonymous letters. Personally I think that anonymous letters should be dumped in a bin. If anyone is cowardly enough not to sign their names then that's all their spite deserves.
