[trader]

All are welcome.

The key details are in the first post to this thread and are also up at http://herptrader.com.au

I should be a good night and we are looking forward to it an meeting a few new faces.

Since the VAAH web site is still down I have updated the HerpTrader banner with the place and time.

Herptrader, do you know if Brians talk will be different from the last one he did? If it is i think i will go as the last one was awesome.

Speaking to Brian yesterday on the phone he said same photos, but because Brian 'ad libs' each presentation can/will be totally different. It should be a meeting 'not to be missed!'

An excellent night
Brian was his usual witty self and provided great entertainment.
Also as per usual the Geelong herp club provided a great club atmosphere.
A great night by all parties concerned.

Hi Baz! the theme was (as advertised):

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]'The Life of Brian Barnett 'Take 2' - 50 years of herpetoculture in Australia'
In the 1950's few Aussie herps were kept, few were bred, and little was known.
In half a century herping has come a long way and Brian Barnett has been living and breathing herpetoculture every day for the last 50 years.

It was a great night. It is a good atmosphere @ VAAH, lots of laughs. They appreciated Brian's presentation.

Cheers, Judy

hi PeeGee, It was advertised on a front page banner on the HerpTrader for 1 month.
Keep an eye out for any major Reptile meetings or gatherings of herpers, they are generally advertised on the front page of HerpTrader.

There was a good crowd there!

thanks trader.. I never read banners, but will do from now on, especially on the HerpTrader. Me and hubby are new to reptiles, so it would have been great, hopefully next meeting we'll be there..
