London/Essex UKAPS winter get together!

Yes, a big thank you to Mark for organizing the get together, pity the others couldn't make it.

I got home on the last train for the night from Charing Cross and ended up spending a fortune on taxis, first time in many years. :lol:

MA was definitely very impressive, very nicely laid out and presented shop. Mark's local also had a lovely Mbuna tank at 12' long!! Should of bought my digital SLR. Hope we can do this again sometime.
 
Just as i was relaxing after everyone left the electric all blew in the house followed by the sound of gushing water, i ran upstairs to find water pouring through the ceiling :wideyed: a pipe had blown its fitting in the loft and dumped the contents of the header tank thought the ceiling onto the floor and then through the floor onto downstairs :mad: :wideyed: i have just sat down after dealing with the aftermath :arghh:

very sorry to hear that, was this unfortunate incident related to your new boiler being fitted?
 
That's crap, not what you need on a Sunday. Hope its relatively trouble free getting it sorted, although unfortunately these things tend not to be.

PS - have just spent 5 hours redoing the tank, will get some pics up in the journal once the water has settled tomorrow. The wood looks chuffing lovely, soooo glad i decided to get it ;)

Sorry to hear about the water burst that's absolutely awful!
I'll post up a picture of my new wood scape as soon as I get chance.
Thanks again for the hospitality and ensuring everything was as good as possible.

Here's another, the so called "The Ultimate Plant Tank" At Wildwoods :wideyed:




I'm feeling really cynical, Mark: What is on my mind is if Wildwoods would take this video in good jest or ask you to take it down due to libel? :wideyed:

Wildwoods was a great place though.
 
haha, why don't you offer to do a rescape for them? :p

Sam, hows the tank? did you get yourself those poker chips?
I've got my wood in use, I wish I had a light for the 11, I'd have it filled and running now this minute if I had.
 
I'll post up more pictures as soon as I find my camera.

Mark you need to stick up your tank in journals or aquascapes, its beautiful.
