Just wondered if anyone else is going to the FoF this year? I'm going down tomorrow and stopping over till Sunday. They'll be a big UKAPS contingency there by the sounds of things!

Should be a great show, I'm really looking forwards to it! Who else is headed down there?

Hey guess what.....no need for tickets at all

The show is on a holiday camp and as a day visitor to the show iiiiiiiiiiits FREE

Don't believe me? ring this guy and mention the Practical Fishkeeping website 0208 847 3586

Now come on.....free entry has got to be worth a bit of fuel (well maybe not THAT much fuel 'shelaghfishface')

It's too far away for me and I can't drive

 

[liz2]

my hubby would hate it, and my car is so old.....

The show was really good. Quite busy on Saturday but a bit quiet on Sunday. Lots of fantastic quality fish. Some amazing discus too. The UKAPS stand was amazing and it was a real pleasure to be able to help out

Anyone else manage to get there?

 

[helterskelter]
