Just wondered what people thought of the show this time? Didn't get a chance to go due to lack of ££££. I went to the september show which was a nightmare getting there but an enjoyable show once we arrived.

just wondering, can you bring animals back on the coach without any problems, what does it involve?

Can't imagine sitting on a coach for that long, must have been a nightmare! Confused

This show seemed to have a lot more 'laid back' feel to it and was overall very quite (still 1000's of visitors but a patch on Sept).

A few great animals there, I was extremely tempted with a 'Super Pastel Butter' python.

Was great meeting everyone again. Now we've the long wait to the next show in March Sad
