From Allison
Harris:
The British Geological Society last night reported an earth
tremor measuring 3.4 in the Mansfield area.
It is thought the quake's epicentre emanated around Allison Harris's house at the time
Ashley and Pudsey won BGT.
Experts have said it was probably caused by a lot of jumping around.

Bon Mot |
Give 100% 100% of the time!
When training or
competing in agility make sure you are giving everything 100% all of the time. Dogs will gain
confidence, speed and concentration if you give them it back. When turning up to an agility
class - whether it be a competition or training, no matter how hard or how easy the course is -
give your dog everything they deserve.
Martin Reid -
Start 2 Finish Agility
