Hi folks!
I've been a member here for a while and I've been reading the odd discussion but after taking a trip to Vivarium in Holland and falling in with a rough crowd at the hotel bar, I have to come out of the shadows and introduce myself! :lol:
My name is Rory. I live just outside Dublin and I've been killing... I mean... KEEPING fish for almost 20 years.
My main interest is planted tanks but most of what I saw (especially on the ukaps stand) this weekend would put my past attempts to shame!
This was a great weekend and it was great to meet so many nice people! I'll definately be there next year!
A big hello and thanks to the following people for being so friendly! Hopefully I'll see you again soon!...
Sam (themuleous), Dan (Dan Crawford), Paolo (London dragon), Steve (steve uk), Ed (piece of fish), Matt (a1 matt), Lisa (lisa_perry73), John (john starkey), Mark (saintly).
I think there was somebody else there from the forum but I didn't get to meet him unfortunately.

Anyway now for a few snaps of the weekend. Enjoy...

PS- I'm not a photographer obviously!

All the best!
Rory.

Sorry mate :oops:
Mark used to go under the username Saintly, I forgot he'd changed over to his real name now.
