Planning, organisation and team work… “Having just completed 5 shows in 8 days I am glad to be back at home for a breather before setting off again. I am lucky to have a hard-working team who are always cheery no matter how hectic things get and such understanding owners who support us come rain … Read more
“Team Ross has been a hive of activity in recent weeks, and I feel we have gone from one extreme to the other. The slower pace of life is behind us with 3 shows under our belts in as many weeks and another next week. We are delighted to be back out again, but I … Read more
“We are full steam ahead at Team Ross, with fingers crossed, to go to our first competition in just 3 weeks’ time.
