Hi all, wasn't able to make the meeting yesterday. What was the talk about?

Were there any bargains to be had?

Any unusual to terrific quality tanganyikans go through?

Was the turnout good?

Yeah very busy night. A lot of calvus and altos went through cheaply. The talk was great. The speaker dives in lake tangynika. Had great video footage of under water and some species. Was really interesting. Great raffle prizes too

The talk that Alex done was very good and informative.

The photos he took in the lake were absolutely awesome....beautiful colours. Glad I went along.

A big thanks to the Committee members for organising it. Great night.

Cheers.

The talk was awesome, was great to hear his experiences of the lake, things you don't hear every day such as the eels following him around and becoming like pets, and where each species inhabits in the lake. Loved the footage of the white calvus moving with the current. Where the snail shells originate from and the vast beds of them.

Also noted is the various improvements to the way the meetings are run - the scanning, membership cards and raffle machine, all this adds up to a better experience on the night. Good work guys, thoroughly enjoyed it.
