NORTHERN BUDGERIGAR SOCIETY

Colin Wright
It is with great sadness the we report the death of Colin Wright, a long-time fancier and supporter of the NBS and all the local societies. We pass our condolences onto all his friends and family at this sad time.
HANDBOOK and Open Show details
All members should have now received the NBS handbook and schedules for both the Area and SRV shows. If any have not been received please contact the secretary Kevin Batey.
Enteries for the Area show on the 12th of July will be taken either before Gateshead and Newcastle show or after, but please bare in mind I've got to run Gateshead show on the day and time might well be pressing to deal with NBS entries at the show.
Labels for the NBS Open Show can be collected from myself in person at the Gateshead and Newcastle meeting on the Wednesday 8th July at Swalwell Comminity Centre which will also host their ring number 4, 6 and/or 8 show.
