I'll be coming up there for the Sunday. Looking forward to it. I'll also be presenting the 2018 Convention in Melbourne.

Are there going to be a trade & sales section, or is this just a show & workshops?

There's an exhibition, and no doubt there'll be trade tables too.

Had a great day in at the Royal on the Park today - Marc is a great demonstrator and very entertaining. I spent some hard earned coin on a great pot by Marie Hewartson too.

One of the many fantastic trees on show.

It was indeed an entertaining day, and I reckon Marc has probably had a lot of fun. Hopefully it'll be just as much fun tomorrow.

Here's a selection of shots I snapped with my phone
