I read with interest the letter entitled Hunting: A Way Of Life (February 16) by Carmel Farrugia and his reference to the British Royals and their love of shooting.
The Kennel Club Cocker Spaniel Championship was held on January 9 and 10. By gracious permission of HM the Queen, the championship was held at Sandringham. The numerous prizes, trophies and diplomas were presented by the Queen who is also patron of the Kennel Club.
The championship was recently featured in the Shooting Times (January 24), as shown in this photograph, and makes very interesting reading.
