Simon Watharow was great, had a good chat to him, himself and Shane from Aussiepythons were the judges on the night.

i own the female hypo but dn't tell any one. I have been reading APS 4 aboout the last two years. the computer that i was using was not mine. So APS would not except my yahoo e-mail so. a friend of my just got a new laptop and give me one of her e-mail to use SWEET. I'v know a few people on this site for a while. not to good with the computer. when i have work it out will start posting pic's. I'm not breeding the hypo this year sorry. She is a fussie feeder. Would like to put some more size on her but my good mate who i got her from is breeding his two females. they are from the same clutch. will let u all no when he has hatchies too sell. will do a better intro at a later time when i have pic's to post. now back to watching the hurricanes beat the waratahs. iI miss the game last nite.

 

[salebrosus]

Go the Tahs!!!!! rucuss.NZ were you the unit who was about 6ft there reasonably early when Pete, Pugsly and i were putting the animals in the banks of cages? Were you at the previous meeting?

Simone.

 

[Hickson]

Although I was taking pics, I was using Jeff's camera, so I can't upload any but Slatey said he would tomorrow.

It was a really good turnout, I dond't think I've seen so many people at a MacHerps meeting before. What was really impressive was when Jeff asked how many people found out about the show from the MacHerps website, the local radio adverts, or from APS - the show of hands was predominantly APS.

Also impressive was the fact that Simon Watharow flew up from Melbourne on Thursday for our show, and he flew back to Melbourne today.

[rucuss.NZ]

looks like i will be playing poker/ watching the super 14 finals with a mate or 2 who play for the tahs.hehehe. yeah i was there a bit early just to settle the female she fiety as. DO u mean the talk that JW did in the city.

 

[hugsta]

Was a great night so well done to the organisers and there were some very nice animals on display. I am sure if the event was held earlier on in the year they would get a bigger turnout though.

Good to meet some other members and catch up with the regulars, a great night indeed.

 

[FAY]
