Is there anyone out there who will be attending?

I have quite a few fish to show this sunday. Hopefully I have my conditioning timed right so they all look their best. Just hope i win a few of the classes and there are plenty of people to see some of the unusual fish I have.

I cant wait for the auction too to pick up some of the bargains!

I take my digital camera anyway to get pics of other peoples fish. I have quite a few pictures from last years shows. Exhibitors do not like photos being taken of their fish with flashes on the cameras, so be carefull. If in doubt ask first.

The last few years the show has not been all that well turned out. This year however I think it will be better as I know of two people who will have quite a few enteries who dont normally show at this one. The reason for this is because in previous years this show has either clashed with Northamptons show or has been the week after. This year Northampton is not holding a show.
I, like some other people, do not like taking fish to shows week after week after week. I feel this has too much inpact on the fish, and at the end of the day I am not prepared to put my fish at risk.
I try to get the fishes condition to peak on the day of the show.

In the past I have mainly gone just for the auction as it is a good one.

Hi, have you got a list of the judges names, I used to show years ago when I lived in Yorkshire, I'm only curious to see if theres anyone I recognise who are still on the circuit.

Did anyone else attend?
If so, what did you think?
