*WARNING* Totally bike unrelated.
There was a little surprise about the fact that I breed Show Rats... So i thought i should blow my own horn a bit ;)
Yesterday i took my rats to the Sydney Royal Easter Show not expecting too much from my first year of proper pedigree breeding, but hey gotta be in it to win it [8D]
Low and behold my female down under ratty Zephyr took out Grand Champion Rat! For those of you who are unfamiliar with show awards, Grand Champion is the Holy Fucking Grail. The best animal shown on the day, safe to say i was fairly shocked, and incredibly happy.
As people have said to me, "if you're going to win a show, thats the one to win." So i would just like to say how proud i am of my all little winners especially my girl Zephyr of Merlyn's Mayhem :)
