Cracking work guys. Love the discus tank's scape though I'm going to contradict everyone here as I don't like the fish! Give me wild Tefe Greens any day rather than the line bred strains! Loving the business cards too guys, very nice! :wink: :D Great publicity too, those are the tanks...

When is it Dan? I seem to have missed this as I've not been looking on all the subforums!!!!

The guy who organises this, Tim Addis, is a long term member of the BKA and I always want to get down to it but am always busy. Meant to be a class opportunity to pick up some amazing fish for very realistic prices. Look here for a list of some of the things that will be up for auction.

Dan I've just realised that I will be not too far from you at Silverstone that weekend mate! Sorry!

Thought that was what you meant Dan! Didn't want anyone getting the wrong idea! :D

I think Dan means he ACCEPTS newbies, not excepts or excludes them!!! :? Right Dan?

I'm off to Uganda at some point in June but if it doesn't clash with this I'll be there. Always up for a beer or two!

Date permitting I'll be there, but there's a fair bit going on in May/June for me I'm afraid.

Actually thinking about Dan yes please! Can I have 2? Good thinking!

I'm picking Gratts up on the way so at least 5! I hope there's more of you guys; there's loads of us near Nottingham! If not it will be a select gathering! lol!

No worries mate. I'm amazed you haven't converted them yet!!! :lol:

Everybody's welcome Andy! Hope you can make it! Glad looks like a decent turnout guys!

I'm sure I can detour via that area. I'm coming from the other side of Nottingham so have got to get across the city some way!

For everyone in the Nottingham/Newark area come along to Maidenhead Aquatics @ East Bridgford (In the Bridgford Garden Centre, Fosse Road, East Bridgford, Nottinghamshire, NG13 8LA) Sunday 22nd February at 11am come along and have a good chat and get a look at Saintly's newly set up scape in the...

I'm hoping to make it down, but like LD I'll only be able to make one day.

What's the actual date Matt? I can then get it in the diary early so I can hopefully make it this year!

Well good luck with the move Clark, and I'll certainly help you celebrate if I can make it!

I'm afraid it looks like a do at mine in a fortnight is a no-go. Real-life is interrupting... I can do a few beers in town but can't put anyone up I'm afraid. I will be hosting a do in the summer though, promise.

Nothing like the Green Machine! :lol: There's Wharf Aquatics which has a good tropical section (which is about to be re-done according to Ivan and Richard), decent coldwater/pond and marine sections and a great reptile house upstairs. They have put a new plant sales tank in the fish-house...

I'll double check dates everyone and we'll sort something out! I'll let you know when I do!

You know you're always welcome mate. Be good to meet up before October... :mrgreen:

Well I may have the house to myself on a weekend coming up in May so this might be an option as some of you will then be able to crash downstairs. Would rather wait and have you over for a huge bbq and drinking session in the summer though as we can then enjoy the pond which is far more...

I was thinking we need one around Nottingham as well as there seem to be a few of us around here and it's very local. The only problem is I haven't got anywhere people can stay here and the kitchen (and possibly other bits too) is on the verge of being re-done. I'll definitely host a bbq in...

I'm definitely up for a trip to AT! Been years since I've been. If there's a ticket still spare of course!!!

Sam, that's fatal! It'll be arriving on your doorstep as we speak....

I'm still a maybe Dave, depending on the koi do.

Ha ha! Max, we'll go and drink lots of beers somewhere when you're off holiday!!! Unfortunately the Koi farm weekend is a then or never type of thing! All the new spring harvest is on sale for the first time and if you want some great fish then you have to be there that weekend. I'm after a...

I'm up for the trip, but 5th April I'm at a koi breeder's open day! Maybe another date? If that's the only one anyone can make no probs but the koi farm's only a twice a year thing and the only chance to buy some nice new 'little' koi freshly overwintered!

Really like that Sumatra driftwood! Do they have a list of stockists on their website?

Sam I'm really sorry but I'm not even going to be able to make it down for a part of the day. I was hoping that I could come down for the shops bit and then dash off, but it ain't happening! Hopefully I'll get along for the next one...

Cheers Sam. As soon as I 'know' I'll let you know!

I still can't 100% confirm Sam, I'm really sorry. I might have been commited to do something already, sure you know how that goes.... I'm trying to wiggle my way out of it to come to yours but can't say either way yet - if this is a problem then you may have to count me out. :cry:

Yep, that's it! Got some giant ones in there too, like E.'Rose' and E.osiris rubra, but the 'Oriental is very small with lovely pinky-red new leaves. The 'Red Diamond' is a bit bigger with long and thin red leaves and very nice! I'll bring some along and you guys can have a look!

If you fancy a bit of colour I could bring some small red swords down. I could spare a E.'Red Diamond' and/or a E.'Oriental' which in my tank have topped out at about 4" for the latter and 5-6" for the former. They might be hard to fit into a scape though... But then if we can't come up with...

Me too Sam. It's not too far from Notts!!!

Great work guys, looks very professional. I wish I'd been able to get down and join you, well done. You all deserve a few beers for all the effort! :lol:
