I have been to this once, with steve and really enjoyed myself.
Last years was called off due to the snow, And I was not in the Uk to attend the Feb Show.

This Year I am going on the 04th December and cannot wait. Some of the Fish that are going to be on sale, I have never seen before. I want to get some Starlight BN Pl*cs, and some others.

1st link is the Facebook Page, 2nd is one of the main Organisers of the event.
 
You can be sure I will Bag some Bargains. Looking for lots of Java Moss, as Very Very Cheap at the show.
I will take plenty of pix
 
This looks like a truly awesome day, ......pity I dont have any money at the mo, Think I would be punishing myself if I went without money to spend :( or perhaps I could just tag along with you at the show and get a HIGH off your spending spree :)

Be sure to let us know how you get on Gill

Lol, I am not going to spend alot. £20-30 is enough for me. I think I will spend most of the day there, as missed some good heated bidding.
The time I went was the 1st time Jap Blue Endlers went on sale, and that was an exciting auction.
 
Have been a few times now and it really is worth the visit, some superb bargains to be had, unfortunately i cant make it this time though :(. Hope you get some bargain Gill.

Not many people here yet, most people bringing fish in to be lotted
 
Got back from the auction @ 2 and came home with a Group of Betta Falx, a Very Nice Peruvian type of Otto that is very big and a lovely grey color. A Few Plants and a new Pico tank to be Scaped at a later date. The Main fish i was bidding on went everytime without me winning(Gold Lazer Cories). The Amount of Killiefish there was overwhelming, and the auction looked to go on for another few hours till after 4pm. Due to there being a very Large number of sellers this time, More than Expected. Will def be going to the next one, as fish available have not seen in the shops.
 
I did miss a few that i wish i had bin on. ie 6 pearl gourami for 3quid
