Posted: 07. August 2006 17:35 Quote PM Mail Hi To everyone We have had a few problems with arrangements for our Guppy Show in Sept so this has now been re-scheduled for October details are below. If anyone has any questions or would like to enter fish and we are looking for as much support as possible please contact me. Kind regards Derek Jordan THE BRITISH LIVEBEARER ASSOCIATION ARE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE Our International Guppy Show will now take place on the 14th and 15th October 2006 at HOLIDAY INN, DERBY (M1, JCT. 25) BOSTOCKS LANE, SANDIACRE, NOTTINGHAMSHIRE NG10 5NI. Anyone wishing to attend the event and stay over should contact Dave MacAllister 39 Beaufort Drive, Barton Seagrave, Kettering, Northants NN15 6SF email – dave.macallister@ntlworld.com The Show will be a True Pairs Only Show i.e. one male and a matching female. The event will now be run alongside our Convention, with a wild fish show as well as the Guppy show. Whilst we are still anticipating entries from all over the world, we are aware that there may be concern that the event is late in the season and that there could be problems with the cold whilst shipping entries. We have therefore made facilities so that fish can be sent at any time from now up to and including Friday 6th October 2006 and they will be looked after for their stay before the show. Please send your entries to: Derek Jordan, 9 Rockingham Crescent, Grimsby, North East Lincolnshire, DN31 1UL ENGLAND. Please email Derek when fish are to be dispatched so arrangements can be made for when the arrive: derek.jordan@sjpp.co.uk We anticipate that there will be several visitors, especially from Europe, so it may be that arrangements could be made for those individuals to bring your entries for you. We would still need to know if you will be entering your fishes preferable by Friday 6th October. The judging of the fish will be based upon the European standards; an English version will be displayed on the BLA website in the near future. For any exhibitors who will not be present at the Show but would like their fish to be returned to them, arrangements can be made, otherwise they will be treated as donated fish and auctioned on the Sunday, with the proceeds going towards the costs of the event. |

Posted: 17. October 2007 08:00 Quote PM Mail Hi All, Down to 1 week before our show now and looks like we should have 100+ pairs entered. The Guppy hobby is starting to grow again in the UK and we shall be supporting a number of European Shows next year. We will also be sending fish to the WGA show next year. Who knows we may even one year be able to offer to hold the WGA show in the UK! Regards Derek |

Posted: 01. November 2007 09:52 Quote PM Mail Hi All, The UK Guppy show over last weekend was a great sucess, with the overall Grand Champion going to Jens Bergner to see the show on video and all the winners go to the following link http://www.fancyguppies.co.uk/index.htm and click on show video on the front page. The auction was also excellent with many pairs selling for over £30.00, thats about 43 euro or $60.00 the top two prices paid were £69.00 (100 euro or $138.00) and £110.00 (159 euro or $220.00) Thank you to all those who helped and supported the show.
