|  | Regular Member | Join Date: Mar-06 Location: central Queensland Gender:  | | | | one more sleep to go.we have started setting up but unfortunatly cant get into the place today to finish so it will be a bit of a mad rush tomorrow morning.its looking good with kris's brand new demonstration pit set up and some of the enclosures in place.
great weather for those also bringing a boat along.no wind whatsoever.
saturday night,most of us will be heading down to the gladstone yacht club for dinner and drinks after the expo so everyone is welcome to come along,but if you are eating it is important to book a table because it fills quickly.(ask to be on the back veranda).call 49722294 to book a table.alternativly there are good feeds at the Queens hotel and the Grand Hotel and they are all walking distance to each other and all in Goondoon st..
so much interest has been created with this first Qld reptile expo that we have already had 3 other major reptile breeders who weren't able to make this one have already booked in for next years expo ,so it is looking promising for years to come,but thats next year.
a big thanks to the people who are supporting the expo and travelling large distances to be here.make yourself known when you are here so we can put faces to names.
cheers

|  | Subscriber | Join Date: Apr-03 Location: Brisbane | | | | This guy's collection was very nice, the lower albino was simply stunning - and he had rough scales which is the first time I have checked out of them up close, the jungle pics is a great shot,
And he put this smile on my boy's face by letting him handle the olive python - which was priceless.
Cheers

|  | Regular Member | Join Date: Mar-08 Location: Mackay, QLD Age/Gender: 33  | | | | Just got back and the family is still talking about it. As for holding it in the SE corner to hell with that!. The day was fantastic and the fact that it was somewhat central to everybody will ensure its success for years to come. Premier Pythons' display was outstanding and I would like to thank them for making the effort. |  | | |
