We set out early on Saturday to go to the Games trial. The Strategic Pairs was a great time, it was only marred by us having a play for about 30 seconds in the middle of it, otherwise we went well even if we were over time. In the Gamblers we did not do very well, but in Snooker Excellent I got a pass in 5th place overall. Hannah was doing well until she jumped off the dog walk.
On Sunday we got up even earlier to get to Monarto by 7 AM to do our Track 2. Hannah went first, found Keith and a sock, ( the other sock disappeared, that's 2 socks we have lost). Then it was my turn, I found Kathy and both socks on the track. I was doing very well until near the end I had a bit of trouble finding the scent in the trees. Kathy said there had been some rabbits and a kangaroo running about near that point. I got a Good rating,
Somebody did not turn up for their trial, so there was a track prepared with no one to use it. The organisers then put everybody's name eligible for that track in a hat and Hannah got picked out to use the spare track. She had to track an unknown person for Track 3 which she had never done before. She had a bit of trouble at the start, but once she worked out what to do she followed the track, found the track layer and the articles and was rated as Very Good. The pic shows Hannah on the closing stage of the track with about 50 metres to go as she qualified for her Tracking Dog Title. Keith took the pic with his telephoto lens on his camera from about 100 metres away..
All in all, we had a good weekend.
