Unfortunately, looks like I will not be attending now, as they are requesting $95 for the workshop only. As apparently although not stated on the registration forms you must pay for a full days attendance as well, even if you can not attend (so not $30 for a workshop). This is very disappointing and I would encourage your club to reflect this in communications and your registration forms. It is disappointing as well that you can not honour your own registration forms, I would have very much liked to attend and joined in to reinvigorate my bonsai hobby, however $95 is a little rich, plus cost in the travel to get there. I will have to catch up with Don Deluca another time then.
cheers, I hope you can feed this information back you your club.

As requested this should be reflected on the registration forms.

Keep an eye out for Marg Fenn flogging pots out of the boot of her car at the car boot sale... ;)

I gave Naoki one of your mums pots to take back to Japan. He loved it!

Cheers Reece, that was generous of you! Taiga Urushibata was given one as well when he was here so that's a couple of Aussie pots exported back to Japan to replace the ones we've been pinching from them! :yes: :lol:
