Fish Shop Tour TGM - Saturday 28th May with pics!

As already said we had a great visit. Thanks to TGm for organising and providing the lovely cakes (Yum!) and for andyh for organising it. The tanks were looking great, especially the 80cm which is moss heaven. Good to meet up with everyone, put some usernames to faces and make some new friends :thumbup:

Unfortunately I couldnt stay all day as I had to work but it was a great visit and bobtasic's scape looks real cool too so sorry I missed that being setup.

Some pics to go along with the great ones already posted

I'd like to echo what everyone else has said. A great day had by all, the time we spent at TGM absolutely flew by! It was lovely to meet everyone in person. Thanks to Andy for arranging everything and thanks to Jim and the team for, as always, making us feel so welcome.
And on a sad note... I can't believe Bones of the Earth has gone! :'(

I made my 1st visit to TGM the week before, (Fri 20th). Jimmy was very welcoming and makes a great brew.

That 80cm tank was one of my favourites. Lot's of Staurogyne, I had to grab a pot of it whilst I was there and got myself a souvenir pair of wave scissors.

Looks like everyone had a blast, I'll make sure I can attend the next visit. :clap:
 
Hi All.

Just to echo fellow attendees ... Had a fantastic day ... Many thanks to Jim , Gaz & all the staff at TGM for making us all so welcome :thumbup: :clap: ... I just wish you were a bit closer :sick:
Is it me or did time fly :cry: .... Didn't find time to meet everyone but it was nice to put a face to the names of those I did meet .... Bobtastic & co in particular - Sorry bob - I can't remember your young lady's name 😳 but thank her again for me 😳
and I hope we can organise some more gatherings soon :thumbup:

Cheers

Pete
 
Would there be any doubt that TGM is one of the best shops in Europe, and I only say that because I have not visited Viktor's shop yet. 😀

For best shop in the world there is stiff competition, such as the ones in Japan and maybe one or two in the US.

It is for sure a venue that sets the standard.
 
Thanks for sharing the photos guys, looks like a great day out! Shame I had to miss this one too 🙁 maybe next time!
