Loaches Online Forum

Hi all,

We are planning another loachy meeting on Thursday 26th June to coincide with Andre's visit from South Africa. It would be great if we could get as many loachaholics together as possible! So you are all invited to join us - as usual, we will start off at the shop (Maidenhead Aquatics @ Peterborough) and probably venture to a local pub for lunch. Then back to the shop, possibly calling in for An Audience with Marge on the way back.

Please reply to this thread (or PM me) if you can make it. Would be great to see faces old and new alike.

And as it is on a Thursday, the shop will be open till 7:30pm. No one is expected to buy anything - it would just be lovely to see everyone.

Emma

I will be there in spirit.

Martin.

i will be thinking of you reading extracts from The Book in front of a beautifull marine tank in a darkened shop


see you all there


Andre, do you still want me to bring the scrabble? or the monoploly?

Hi Emma

I'd love to come along if thats OK?

Jayne

Jaynie, i was starting to think it would just be me, Emma and Andre

it will great to meet you have you been to the shop before, as you are not all that far (well, compared to some of the places some people have come from )

Hi Helen

Yes I've been to the shop twice, I bought my gorgeous little G. Occelatus there

I'm new to loach keeping so it will be great to meet other loach lovers.

Hopefully see you there

Jayne

Hi Jayne,

Yes please do come - it will be great to meet you at last! We'll sort out the meeting time nearer the date.

Emma

I'm not 100% sure if i can make it. At the moment i can say that i wont be there but nearer the time..... who knows, i might jump out from behind the tanks!

awww, Graeme, thats a shame. i will hope that you appear from behind the tanks, but you will have to hide from us crouching down, or we will see your head sticking up above the top tanks.

we will miss you if you cant come

I am fiercely jealous...

Hope you lot have fun. We want photos, of course.

Both Susan and I have managed to get the days booked off work so expect us there (-: It will be great to see everyone again and indeed meet Andre.

LES..

Emma

That's so nice LES!!! Thank you sooooo much! BTW we may be neighbours soon!

Thank you very much Emma for organizing this, I have no words to express my appreciation. I'll bring some biltong to share at the pub (providing that it doesn't get confiscated at customs).

I'm feeling like a child before Xmas, I'm counting the days.

See you soon!

Andre

Les, it will be great to see you and Susan again do you know the date of the next chilli festival that goes on down your way?

Andre, you have to be carefull round here, those quick tongue (well, typing) accidents are always remembered

Why yes i do, the 9th and 10th of August. I don't know which day we will be going yet but after missing the last one i will definitely be there this year. Thoroughly recommended (-:

p.s. A taunt to all those who love chilli chocolate probably the best chilli chocolate truffle in the world.
