Hey barney,sydney reptiles has a massive stand,we have a 30min show each day & wow is all i can say.Neville Burns has the crowds buzzing & puts on a show that encaptulates slightly his 49 years,to anyone that can make it this man is awsome.He puts on the most informative talk presnted in away kids & adults were both drawn in,he is a real credit to herotology & is doing the hoby very proud.I erge anyone new or old to the hobby to come & meet this man he is definately one of australias great characters,more than willing to talk & share experiences at our stand all day.This years show the say has been the best in quite a few years with lots for everyone.
Hope to see you there.
Cheers popp.
P.S its 4th-6th & nevs on stage at 11:00am.

Ah yeah I've seen that guy before...he was working at the Sydney Wildlife Park (attached to Australia's Wonderland) in the time just before it closed down...Popp you could verify if the finger he lost was because of a snake bite? I can't remember but for some reason I think it was.

47 years in the hobby is sooo much more believable when you consider he had lost a finger to a RBBS bite back in the day. He talks of anti venom research & the effects of treatment in todays society where such instances these days show very minimal casualties (amputation or death). He is a pioneer & gave a great display IMO...
Great show Popp & congrats on the success of the store at Expo 05!
