Cool Well was my first time there and it was everything I had heard and more! It really was mindblowing the array of animals on display,as well as the equipment etc.The place is huge and very roomy.Although it was very busy there was no pushing or shoving which was nice as I was shattered after getting up at 6.30am yesterday and having no sleep since!
Trip over was great and a good laugh with some great company,we had a convoy of 3 cars with 4 in each car.Drive over went great apart from the weirdo that decided to run towards the car from the hard shoulder of the m25 in his boxershorts!! Shocked Laughing
We got in a little early and even beat Scott through the doors but guess he was hungover as he rang me asking where to go!! Laughing
The animals on display range from the most common to some of the rarest around and most the table holders were very friendly and helpfull even with the language barrier..
Got to meet some new people as well as meet up with old faces..was great to see Mr Harris again and finally met up with Jon Arthur(great to see you at last mate,you and Paul look after my girl for me!) Wink Saw Jas and his good lady too plus a few others,gutted that I missed meeting up with RonW(sorry mate) next time we will for sure. I could have spent a fortune easily but eneded up coming away with a stunning 100% het albino granite burm female and lots of duty free spirits.. Very Happy ..I will post pics in the next day or so.We left at lunchtime and journey home was great until we hit the m25.. Rolling Eyes Major traffic which really slowed us down but at least I managed to shut my eyes for a short while..Big thanks to SteveC for offering to drive back from dover as it was my turn but I would have probably crashed due to the lack of sleep I had..Anyhow I would still go back in a shot as the show more than makes up for the tiredness..If you can get out there I would highly recommend it.



Was great to meet you at last and Im looking after that female JJ for you. Wink You missed out not meeting Ron W he is a great guy and his IJs are outstanding. He was only a couple of tables up from us and you probably see him as he spent as much time at our table as his Laughing

A dutch guy made picture's at the show and published them on the Internet. Mainly from the visitors so you could be one of the subjects Wink

Sounds like you had a good time. What was the venomous selection like?
I chose not to go after all - I had a rare chance to spend two days in a row with my family and I dont regret it.
