African Bonsai Convention 4

Post by Andrew Legg »

Hi all,

Just to let you know that if you are looking for an excuse to visit lovely Cape Town in South Africa, here it is! In October next year we will be hosting the 4th African Bonsai Convention in Stellenbosch, a small town just outside Cape Town. We will have Francois Jeker, Ryan Neil and Tony Tickle as well as some great local demonstrators over three days of fantastic bonsai. Interested, give me a shout and/or check out http://www.abc4.co.za

The WBFF will also be meeting at the convention.

Cheers,

Andrew

Do you mean the Aussie dollar that has dropped down to 85cents vs US $1 from a high of $1.06 vs US $1 a year ago? This isn't the cheapest time to travel using the Aussie dollar but then again that show is awfully tempting :whistle:
