Doncaster Show

[scorpion0151]

I was wondering if any of the UK forum members wanted to meet up at the show? It'd be nice to put faces to the user names :)

[CrazyHedgehog]

I'll be the short fat one with purple hair rugby tackling you to the ground so that I can get to that cool garter snake first! :D

[scorpion0151]

go for it I've already reserved my lot :p

[scorpion0151]

this is me only my beard is a bit different and longer now :) I'll probably be waering my special snake t shirt, it's blue with hello kitty in a burm and it's called goodbye kitty :)

I must need a diet, as he recognised me from the 'short and fat' description! Over the moon though, 4 wonderful high red sided (from Sjoerd, )2 plains males for my females, a Florida blue to mix with the two new babies I got last week, a trio of Santa cruz and 4 San Francisco to keep my lonely male company, a good, but expensive day

[Invisible Snake]

Congrats on all your new additions!

[ScimitarX]

Beautiful snakes you have there :D

[guidofatherof5]

Love those Santa Cruz.

[Reptilia]

Wish I had seen this thread before Donny! Doh. Was too busy running about picking up every body else's stuff, I was on a mission, so it's probably just as well! hehe.
Lovely snakes you got CrazyHedgehog!

I wish I could have gone this time:(.I'm definitely going next year.Hopefully my sister will have moved out by then and I can have a bigger room to fill with garters:D

Plenty of time to serve your sister with an eviction notice.

I didn't make it to the show because at the moment my life revolves around a certain 3 week old who is more important than snakes, and who I had to take out visiting people on the Sunday of the show. I did however manage to meet Sjoerd on Saturday, so my snake room is now all the more colourful for the addition of 3 infernalis from Sjoerd and a San Fran from Fons.
Thanks Sjoerd and Claudia (and thank you Fonds for sending the tetrataenia over to me with Sjoerd.

All the new additions are spending a lot of time under cover and recovering from their journey from Holland, so no good photos yet. I have had the first infernalis shed though.

[guidofatherof5]

Seems to be a very good time for the Dibben's
Looking forward to seeing all the new additions.

Great to catch up with everyone was definitely the best uk show I've been to. I did not expect to be bringing back more snakes than I took up! :-)

[SilasBannook]

I am soo jealous of the neat shows you have in the UK. I have gone to several reptile shows in Denver and they only have corns, pythons, Boas and other assorted reptiles. Never garters.:(

Congratulations on those awesome acquisitions! Have fun.

This is actually the first time we've had anything else except checkereds available at one of our shows here. That's why we all went mad and bought as much as we could lol

it wasn't that, it was because you had purple hair and you were at Sjoerds table so I just guessed :)
