The keynote speaker is Peter Karstens from Canada. He alone is worth the cost of attending.
His management skills and knowledge on breeding livefood is second to none. He also breeds his birds in outdoor aviaries.
The other lecture worth the effort will be Gary Fitt talking on Diamond Firetails, I have had the pleasure of listening to him talk on this subject and it was really great and I do not even keep the Diamond Firetail.
Then you have Mike Fidler and the list goes on.
There will be a number going from the forum I would guess.

I am very keen to go - hopefully work permitting I will be able to.
I believe Gary McCrae is one of the speakers, have seen him present before and was impressed.
Mike Fidler will also be one I would like to hear.
Fingers crossed I can make it.

mum and dad STILL deciding. Meanwhile, I'm thinking it's either that or russell Kingston.
I know which I'd choose, RK I can buy myself!
