Shheeesse 3 hours will not get me any where near the SA border or even the Nullabor. So you should jam the highways and get there.

Re: 7th National Exhibition of Australian Plants as Bonsai
I left early this morning to get there at the Arbortorium for opening and was all going well until the *&%$* car broke down on the M7Steven wrote:Well, I've just arrived in Canberra and dropped Melaquins and my trees at the show. Met a lot of the Local crew and was able to get a sneak peak of the exhibition. The display looks great and the quality of bonsai is very high!
The drive from Sydney only took a bit over 3 hours so it would make nice day trip for all you Sydneysiders.
I'm looking forwards to a great weekend indulging in our Nation Capitals bonsai sceen.
I'll do my best to get some pictures up on Sunday evening.
Regards,
Steven
I am now back home already, and Instead of looking at trees, I have to fix the damn thing GRRRRRR NOT HAPPY JAN!!!
Enjoy the Shows i am severely disappointed
