I take it your something to do with organising the show, and thus part of IHS? dont they have set guidelines on this subject?

Not bashing you, IHS or the show, just if I and a few other herpers feel this way, sure as hell the antis would have more to say about it.

We all know things dont always go right, lets face it, in England who would have thought last year would have been so hot.

And we didnt pack up and leave as we had 3 tables so ended up doing a stock shuffle and packing some away.

Having said all this, I am sure you guys will do whatever you can to cover situations once brought to your attention.

If heat is such an issue I think I'll make my decision on whether to attend on the day. Shame as I was looking forward to a show that's not too far away, although the Barking show is not far off.

To be honest it can get very warm in the hall used recently for the Doncaster shows.
But I think they are using a different hall for the next show

I know that ,

I was just pointing out that it can get very warm in the hall used at the Dome in Doncaster , not just at the one in ware,

I also said that I thought that the next Doncaster meeting would be in a different hall.

Please correct me if I am wrong

I know they are a lot of money, but i would use the RUB's, as they come in loads of different sizes, from hatchling size right through, (as you all know). Why cant these be used as display tubs as they can be securley stacked up, then once sold they can be put into reasonable sized flip tubs or as Rach used at Barking, those salad bar pots, great size for a hatchling royal, with room for proper substrrate and everything! I was thinking of getting a table at ware, but I am not to sure i will now, unless i can be guarenteed something has been done about the issuses raised here!

I had planned to go to this show but I dont know now. Is it really this bad? I can see how the reptiles would overheat with a glass roof and lotsa people walking about.

Oh and Blazin I think i bought my steno from you. The little babe is doing fine and due to be fed in a few hours. I was the tall girl with a pony tail that kept going "arhhh bless her" to the steno.

can anyone tell me if the drill hall is wheelchair accessible? My two boys are desperate to go to a rep show and are both wheelchair users.

The full address with postcode would help too - also what time it starts

well generally any info about the show would be good.
