Hi Rorry,
The show will be a good one, a fantastic display by our members, and lots of bargains to be had in mature and beginner stock for sale.
The Redlands club always put on a very good show.
Cheers
Marie

I enjoyed the time lapse, and I enjoyed the show. Well done Redlands!

Huge thanks also to Marie, myself and many others walked out with a few special pots. :)

The sales area was looking very depleted an hour after the show started, I can only hope that all the people who put their wares up for sale didn't have to pack up too much to take home. :hooray:
