I have finally stitched together this year's BBTH and it looks like being another winner. It's always a challenge to come up with fresh subjects and presenters.
I will attach the whole flier with this message ...if the Computer allows

Hey Watto,

There will be three Hawthorn that you will recognise there.

That was a great dig.

Looks like another great program, and I am looking forward to see what you do with those trees. But be very very careful, if they are better than mine you will need to keep your eye on them!!!!

You can be my helper on the day if you like and help me wire and design them

Now that the server is up and running again all will be able to see that the bonsai long weekend in June at Gladesville on the Parramatta River is still on. Don't forget the critique session on the Saturday night; that is always informative, enjoyable and not expensive. In addition there is the opportunity to do a workshop with someone called Grant Bowie.

Hi all,

Now that the convention is over in Canberra and I have retired as Curator of the NBPCA I am really looking forward to Bonsai By The harbour 2013 and especially the workshop on the Sunday.

Pines, Junipers, Deciduous or Natives lets have a go but bring the best material you can to get the most out of the workshop; I love refining older material whether in bonsai pots or plastic.

Only 2 weeks till the event.

Cheers,

Grant

Lin doing one of seikei tray landscapes.

Mentioned that after root pruning the junipers, soak in season. We do not want them "easy dead"

Funny moment
