Pictured below is Eric Croly who took the Best Fife and second Best Fife with a 3pts Buff Green Hen and a Self Yellow Green Hen respectively - 2 very nice birds.

Unfortunately I couldn't show at Haydock this year as I was invited to judge. I then agreed to judge the Borders (as I am also on the Border judges panel) to help out because of circumstances beyond the show organisers control. George Ackersley stood in at the last minute to judge the Fifes. He gave Best Champion and Best Fife to John Sloane with a Lightly Variegated Yellow Hen. The Best Novice award going to Gordon and Chris Vaughn with a Lightly Variegated Buff Hen. 2006 Runcorn CBS (30th September)
John Hughes from Anglesey was the judge for this years show. He gave my Heavily Variegated Fawn Hen the Best Champion award. However he went to the Novice section for the Best Fife and Best Canary award and gave it to Gordon and Chris Vaughn with a very good Self Buff Green Hen. Here's a list of the major special prize winners.

I took this at the 2003 Scottish National CBS where Pat took the award for Best Fife and 2nd best bird in show with a 3pts Dark Blue cock. Pat's main love in the birds was Borders, the Fifes were just for a bit of fun! At this same show he also took the Best Champion Green award in the Border section. Pat was an exceptionally good friend of mine having known him since I was a young lad when he used to visit my father who also had Borders.
