Ive just returned from another really great meeting, About 25 people turned up, so it was lovely to see a few new faces. The guy who brought the insects etc gave us a fascinating talk and brought so many interesting, insects, spiders, beetles and newts. Aswell as other people bringing uromastix, beardies, sunbeams, gargoyle geckos and other lovely creatures. We have booked the next meeting for the first Monday of next month

When I learn to drive (should start lessons soon!) I would love to come to one of the meetings. I will need to sort out a hotel or something but it should be worth it. I don't think there is anything down here like that so I will have to travel! ;D

You could always start up a group around youre way, James. If you do come to one of our meetings you could stay at our place.

Thanks for the offer Angi, I may take you up on that when I can get up to you lot!
I doubt I would be able to start up a group nor find the time at the moment. I also doubt I could do much being under 18, it would limit where we could hold the meeting etc. etc. If one did start up then I would definately go though...

:oURGHH,Angi,how can you handle insects,they horrible,hehe Well Barry I think everyone there had a hold of the stick insects, even Janny was very brave as she was a bit apprehensive about touching them, well done Janny. Barry, you want to see what Ive got in my house at present - a scorpion, adult and baby stick insects, huge millipedes, thingyroaches and a giant snail ;D, Im doing a little talk for my daughters class and Ive borrowed these off Martin and Dawn who go to the meetings
