Bruce has a lot of good stands Marlene, we will have a good cross section of the bonsai community there.
For Sale, we will have stands, pots, tools, beginner and more avanced trees and lots more........

We also combine our show with the local handcraft and produce market so there are even more things to look at or purchase.

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone come along... it's going to be another great show!!

ATTENTION: STEVE & ALL MODS...


I have work on this day...can you guys please draft and create an Ausbonsai doctors certificate??1!?

To be honest i am quite sick of work & bonsai always makes me feel better :P

Just send it to my boss....i think many here would benefit from such a thing lol how many of us are crazily addicted to bonsai??

We have maternity leave, RDO's, beverance leave, long service...my brother who is a social worker even gets 'mental health days!!'

How about all of us who stress when its a hot day and forgot to pull out the shade cloth, or worry about strong winds knocking our trees around..or when we wake up extra early to check out the cold nights damage before heading to work! We need compassion too!!!

Steve, stuff it - just run for parliament with the Ausbonsai party, overthrow Big red and give us all a few national Ausbonsai public holidays? Replace everyones TFN with an Ausbonsai username and there you have it. The solution to bonsai in Australia....

Sorry Steve...hate to put the pressure on :whistle:

Thanks.

Or if you can make it to Lilydale by train, I'll happily pick you up on my way through.
