Thanks Ant - will be good to catch up. Jamie - not sure what I will be working on - I will select material from the nursery when I get there. I have a 3 hour demo - so I am hoping to challenge myself.
Cheers,
Leigh.

The merge with Yarra View Nursery and the moved to Mount Evelyn gives us more opportunities like this. It's a great pleasure to have Leigh comming out to our nursery to do a demo and it will be one no to be missed.
Thanks Leigh for comming down and for starting this post on AusBonsai.I'm new to this forum but will use it more often.
I hope we're getting the support from all bonsai enthusiasts as we are improving on all front all the time. I know we lost some valuable time with the chance from a private business to a Social Firm.
But now we are moving forward. We have better stock then ever before and will continuously improve. I'm always looking for feedback from our customers so feel free to drop me an email.
To keep up to date with the latest news check our Facebook page or subscribe to our newsletter.

Thank you AusBonsai fans for the replies on this post and again thank you Leigh!
We are looking forward to see you all on the 29th May

I am looking forward to checking out the great stock at BTIT - Chris assures me there will be something "challenging" for me to do my demo on.

Will also be good to meet a few more of the Melbourne folk from Ausbonsai.
Cheers,
Leigh.

Unfortunately I have to be here manning the nursery, the weekends is when I get the bulk of my customers. One of the draw backs of running a small business .
