CLICK ON EACH PICTURE FOR A LARGER VERSION !

As usual, there was a wide range of Livestock and Set specimens for sale, as well as Entomological equipment, and folks flocked in as soon as we opened.

Mike Mullis had the best pitch as usual - outside in the sunshine, supplying members with the usual foodplants.  For Plants E-Mail MIKE MULLIS.

Another general view of the Fair.
The women discuss Business - Mrs Jenkinson-Batty & Mrs Wyatt complain that the men don't do enough.

Mike & Sue Bayley did an excellent job again, keeping us going with snacks and refreshments.  The formal chat-&-tea setup of the fair is unique among shows.

Alan Davis of Rothwell, near Leeds, had a fine selection of traditional wooden framed insect cages for sale.

Curtis Lakin had quite a selection of Stick Insects - one of his specialities.

Tony Rouse argues with me about who needs a haircut the most (me probably).

Ron Crouthers has for a long time been well known for the quality of his set British Butterfly Specimens.

specimens from Ron Crouthers.
The quality has to be seen to be
believed.
