So we will see you there
If anyone wants some diatomite or 2 to 5 mm scoria at $20 a bag I can chuck some of that on as well

I've been thinking I might go for a drive this weekend. Haven't been out on the road for a while now, so maybe a change of scenery would be good. :reading:

Only a few days to go now! We have over 20 people registered and confirmed as sellers for the day. A lot of which have many years of experience in Bonsai.

To name just a few, we have Carole Waller, Lindsay Bebb, Rod Lovett, Bob and Averil Stanley, Brad Barlow with his imported pots and some great artificial bonsai, a few potters with hand made pots. Apart from the day being a good opportunity to get some great material, it will be really good to catch up with like minded people to talk about our shared passion.

Gates will be open at 9 am with only sellers let in before that. For the early birds, there are some great little cafe's at Moffat beach, only a few minutes away from the venue. Really looking forward to it now.

Location again: Corners of Lyon and Grigor streets Moffat beach.

Peter.

Happy to have the Men's Shed onboard doing their thing on the BBQ. The coffee vans good to go with coffee and cakes. The weather is looking favourable. Shaping up to be a great day!

I hope to be there if I wake up feeling OK (damn arthritis).
I'm just up the road at Gympie & hoping to take cruise to Moffat Beach. It's my old stomping ground, used to work just around the corner at Moffat Beach Fuel & Mechanical.

Hey Steve,
If it's not too late, could I grab a couple of bags of diatomite off you?
Cheers,
Mal.

Well the day has been and gone - I bought one tree and some scoria so still have a few dollars in my wallet. It looked like a good turnout - thanks to Peter for organising the event :clap:
