Congratulations AQHA UK would like to congratulate the newly married Teresa and Mark Luffman.  Well known faces at all of the AQHA shows with their western store, and sponsors of classes at many of the AQHA shows, they celebrated their nuptials with a whole host of AQHA UK members at Spains Hall, Finchingfield, Essex. On hand to capture the day on film was AQHA UK member Ashley Watts who has kindly supplied these photos (www.wedfoto.co.uk) (and not a cowboy hat in sight!)   Sellers Beware Would all sellers advertising the AQHA UK website be aware that there appears to be a reappearance of the scam whereby a buyer offers to buy from the seller and passes on a cheque of a larger amount than is required.  The buyer then requests that the seller refunds the extra and cancels the cheque leaving the seller with nothing.  AQHA UK would like to make everyone aware so that they do not fall prey to this scam.    Thanks to our Sponsors AQHA UK Council would like to thank the generous sponsors that helped make the Breed Show, Championships and Futurities such a success. Rambo for sponsoring the Championship classes and supplying baseball caps to all competitors, Velour Rugs to the Champions, Show Sheets to the Reserve Champions and headcollars to the 2nd Reserve Champions. Wayne Kenward and Fiona Leask of Blue Profile for sponsoring the Futurities - thank you for your generosity.

If you weren't there, you missed a great weekend.   Breed Show Success The 2008 AQHA UK Breed Show, Rambo Quarter Horse Championship and Blue Profile Futurities were a nice place to be on the weekend 25-28th September.  With glorious weather - imagine, the sun actually shone at a horse show! - Sarah Nutt and her show team along with AQHA UK council members and volunteers pulled out all the stops to put on a great show.   With nearly 100 horses competing and a great schedule allowing the show to have a relaxed atmosphere, there were a lot of happy smiling faces. Due to the increase in interest in the Breed and western, With advertisements and editorial running in local newspapers and local horse magazines Horse Creek Farm in March saw a significant number of visiting spectators watching the classes and our versatile quarter horses.  Saturday evening saw the presentation of All Around Awards and the huge amount of silverware that is on offer at this show - Rosemary Darwell-Smith had been busy with her silver polishing cloth to get them all to sparkle.  Reading some of the names on those trophies is like reading the who's who of Quarter Horses over the last quarter of a century.  After the presentations, the gallery at Horse Creek Farm was filled with the amazing Jazz music of Ralph Titmuss and his friends who had kindly offered to play during the evening as a thank you for all the help the Association and members had given to the AQHA UK Youth World Team.  It was a great evening to sit down, relax and chat with other competitors and just catch up.  Meanwhile down in the Cafe  repeat showings of Rodney Carrington's Live at the Majestic kept everyone in stitches. It was a great show, great atmosphere and a great finish to the season for the majority of AQHA UK members. Full results and photos will be available soon.
