Well what can I say, after making my epic drive and setting off real early in the morning, I finally reached the venue after a massive 7 mile drive. I thought I may of needed to stop for a rest on the way but I was OK.

Parking was limited for 'traders' and no idea about visitors but am guessing it was road only?

The show itself was split over two floors so was in effect twice as big as last year. Not sure if the number of vistors was double though??? Only really felt busy for an hour or so.

Either way the show was well worth the drive for me, selling way over half of everything I took, even my best ever crested female sold Sad (hope the price would put people off but it obviously wasn't high enough Crying or Very sad ).

Overall there was a good range of reptiles and amphibians, and the show should of made a good day out for all that attended.

Nice to meet everyone (Jamie S, Jas, Rick, Pete, James, Wendy, Adam, Ian, Tanya & everyone else...sorry to many names Laughing ) and thanks to all those that bought cresteds off me.

I'll post a few photos up Monday.

It was a good show, much better than I was expecting and nice to meet a few of you. I think it's a shame it was on 2 floors as a couple of people I spoke to never realised there was more upstairs.

Got a really nice 05 pair of fairly extreme abberant hypos, and an 05 pair of
Albino hondos's
Luckily for me a trader was getting out of reps and selling off all of his animals Laughing Laughing Laughing
