JSSUK at the Bird Show Of The Year (BSTOY) - October 12th 2008 Staffordshire County Showground _Bingley Hall, Stafford.
|
Our Judge, Tom Broderick, was faced with the task of selecting the best Java from the 124 to grace the show bench that day. Some 4 hours later he chose an adult Normal, which was staged to perfection by Ken Jones, this bird was steady on the perches throughout its time on the judging stand, winning a class of 28. The same exhibitor completed the double with his adult Silver being selected as 2nd best bird in the show. 3rd Best Adult was Billy Hughes’s, White and Stuart Drury’s Normal taking 4th best adult. The C.Y.O.B. Section was won by a great looking Silver staged by Frank Carter, followed by an Opal Isabel from the same stud. Norman Chapman’s White secured 3rd best and Tony Mulford’s Fawn filling the 4th spot. Best C.Y.O.B. Normal was staged by Brent Jackson, Best Adult Fawn by Wayne Brewer, who had made the long trip up to Stafford from Hampshire. Best Adult Pied and C.Y.OB. were staged by Dave Pover. Best Cream was Norman Chapman’s C.Y.O.B., the Adult Cream section winner was taken by Andy Dutton and Tommy Sisson’s Opal Isabel took the Adult award. Billy Hughes had a clean sweep of the Agate classes, the same exhibitor’s C.Y.O.B. pair taking Best Pair, Frank Carter winning the Adult Pair Class. Best Junior Exhibit was shown by Luanna Elliott. The full list of class winners were as follows:
