Will try and get plenty of pics. I'm looking forward to my demo, I have a Lilly Pilly that I think has some great potential. So far we have at least 50 trees that will be on show.

Set up has been done. There is over 130 bonsai on display and some of them are real beauties. Definitely worth coming to check out!

Congratulations! 130 trees is a huge effort I hope you have a very successful weekend.

All those people who were upset that the AABC convention on the Gold Coast was not open to the general public now have an opportunity. Get along and give them your support!
Q: Why are we all here?

Thanks for all the support and encouragement.

It has been a good show so far, it was my first time giving a demonstration, public reaction was it went pretty well.

I have taken photo's of half the trees on show already, I will get the rest tomorrow and post them once I recover from the weekend.

You still have all day tomorrow to come and have a look, so stop by.

Bougy Fan, were you wearing an Ausbonsai shirt today?
