Already have this in my diary. Not especially into guppies-have only just started fishkeeping at all, but it's on my doorstep, so I'll be there

 

[helterskelter]

Well your have to introduce our self.

and show us the cheap places to eat around there as it's expensive in the hotel and would be good to get out of there.

 

[Duck and Dive]

Ugh still no chance of getting any down to the south east region? Sorry to keep pestering you but I would really like to go to one.

 

[helterskelter]

well next year we may get one in either Reading or Basingstoke way. Still to be discussed.

 

[Alimak]

Reading or basingstoke will be great I know people that would go. It's just so far to travel!!!

 

[helterskelter]

Tell me about it. i live in Dorset and travel up north for the shows.

 

[Alimak]

That's outrageous but deadication. I think we should push for one to be down in the south area

 

[helterskelter]

thats my job. I'm at the show all weekend so will be discussing this alot.

 

[Alimak]

Keep us posted as to if we can get one down this way as its to far for me to travel

 

[Lamp]

I hope to make it to this show, as I've been meaning to go to one of these for a few years now.

Is it free entry to the public? and can you buy guppies while you're there?

 

[helterskelter]

Not sure of door fee's depends if we get the entry fee's sponsored.
and yes on the Sunday their is the livebearer auction and shop guppy auction

However only valid members can buy in the auction.

e-membership is £12

Maybe a guppy show in Coventry or birmingham or meridan. Plus, meriden is the middle of england so nobody has an excuse not to go
