Mark and i normally arrive for around 9.30am but the general meeting time we start off with is around 10am. In the past meetings it's been 10am ish.
Ouch, i'm usually in bed that time. :lol:
not a good job to be doing at around 5am
No comment. :? :lol:
but some may arrive around 12pm-ish.
That sounds more like it! lol. Would 11am be OK?

Yep, that sounds about right Mick. But you forgot to add that all this goes on whilst we get gawped at for blocking the aisles and talking weird fish speak by non-fish folk who are just browsing. :lol:

David, I think I still have your mobile number, so ring/text if you get delayed for whatever reason. I am very embarrassed to admit that Graeme and Mad Duff have beaten me to the shop on a couple of occasions now!!! :oops:

I am definitely reserving fish early on this time after that cheeky bloody woman listened to us talking about the gastros that I wanted and then got them bagged up while we looked at something else, and then to rub salt in she asked for the names of the fish :twisted:

i probably live closest, except maybe for Jayne, but Mark and Graeme often beat me to it. either that or i get there really early. somehow i cant see that happening this time, so David please stop worrying about getting there late :) i will probably be the last one there (I also normally get up late and stay up intto the early hours of the morning, so you getting to the shop by 11 is pretty good going, i reckon)


Emma, do we really get gawped at :lol: we speak weird fish-speak even to the fishkeepers that wont do scientific names, and confusethe people who wonder why we are getting over excited by a load of brown fish and ones that hide in the sand, when we could be looking at guppies
