Thank you to the officers and committee of the SWKA for inviting me to judge and the exhibitors for their entry.  Thank you also to my able stewards for the day Tessa and Sarah.

I was very pleased with the overall quality of the exhibits presented to me.  They were characterful with friendly temperaments.
