Hello,

http://www.bonsai-wire.com/clubsdata.htm

I see there's a Club around 15 miles from you, in Chester. Have I got the distance right and do you have transport?

And one in Tarporley - is that within travelling distance?

Hope you find a Club to join.

Penny.

Hello Jack.

Hope you are able to find a Club to attend. The name "Widnes" instantly brings to mind the rugby league club. Remember them well from watching TV. Smile

So GioGio is a bird. I had begun to wonder if it should be mandatory to state gender in the profile. Embarassed We made early mistakes with Stacey and Marajade you know.
