Where were you Matt G? I flew up to Bris on Sunday morning for the SCI show and presumed that you and your mob would have been there in fine force.
NE members Alex and Tony were there with their booths and though the numbers were down I enjoyed my time and spent most of the day there. Some great game species were on hand to view as usual.

Tony's (in the dark shirt) about to be thumped by the look of the raised fists! 
Looks like a guy on the net with the alias "Wahbi" - perhaps?
I see a nice Mannlicher in Alex Beer's rack.

Hi Gryphon,
David does great work, this is a pencil drawing he made from photos of the Buffalo I shot and the artwork will be used by Ron Croxon for his engraving on my project rifle.

Regards,
Jeff Gray

Hopefully without swearing!
I saw some notes I made a while ago where I wanted to organise some prints from him and members here wanted them too.

Saturday was a much better day than Sunday - Sunday afternoon was poor in public response. Most exhibitors reported they were generally happy with trade.

Yes I believe Saturday was very busy and well attended compared to the Sunday,remember after all it is Brisbane!
I was thankful to be there on a less busy day for sure.

JG - I decided not to go a week before... been away from the family for too long. I really wanted to go but had to say 'enough is enough'. Too many weeks and weekends away.

We had a good weekend. SCI said there where more tickets sold Saturday this year as compared to Saturday last year.
Our outfitter friend from RSA did pretty well. Got 4 or 5 hunts out of the weekend.
Cheers
CF
