    David, think it was 1965.

    Mark, show name Mavroy Monarch won his best in class at Crufts. That picture obviously isn't Crufts, but Dad used to show dogs around the country, and I used to go with him when I was old enough to do as I was told !  Mark was the most successful we kept him and his "mum", others were sold, one even went to Singapore as breeding stock.

    Sad story really, he disappeared from our garden Good Friday 1968, was food time so he wouldn't have run off even if he could have got out. We never found him. Dad was convinced he was stolen.

    Bet you really glad that you asked that simple question  image

    He was very good at head butting anyone who stepped into the house image

  • What a lovely dog Kef and how very sad that someone stole your pet.

  • As they're cheerful, thought I would post these taken from my get well flowers.

    Thanks for sharing your flowers David, they are cheeryimage

    Paid attention, so I won't be asking if the rabbit was one of yours, bonny bunny. Don't know if I should say this, but my paternal Grandfather used to breed / keep rabbits but they were all for the pot. image      I was once sent from the table, no meal and off to my room, for refusing to eat what I knew was not chicken. ( 22 at the time image)

    Lily, another "good looker" in the family, it is a shame you don't know who some of them are. But, you've still got their genes image

  • Thanks, KEF....may have pics somewhere of rabbits I used to show.

    Lily - my guess would be that the ladies hat was from the 1930s.
