A number of members (including myself) are going to this sale on Saturday morning. I thought I would do a post about it here in case other interested Adelaidens missed the other topic, and are interested in coming .

Thanks Liv, I have never been to anything like this before. I will see if I can talk my other half into going. Enfield is not very far from us.

I haven't been to an action either, and the only bird sale i went to, only had a few tiny pet types.

I am really busy on Saturday, but last night i decided that i am going no matter what!!! It should be fun! I am not expecting to be able to afford anything but i am taking a travel case just in case. i am looking forward to the atmosphere and meeting some of the BBC members

I'll be there. Would it be best to meet before or after the auction do you think?

I won't be able to hang around after, I have my daughters birthday party to organise. So meeting before works for me But it also depends on what the others would like to do

Before works for me too

Before sounds good.

 

I haven't been there before, so not sure the best place to meet.

 

Maybe somebody will have to wear a bright red jumper Unfortunately....I don't have one!

I am short, will be wearing cream coloured hoodie jacket (my warmest) and will have a bf (boyfriend) (looking quite grumpy for waking him up so early) with dark spikey hair - we should be easy to spot

 

But I think Liv and her carry case will be easier

It will be great - I wonder if there will be some really expensive birds that sell for $1000s!!! It would be so fun to watch the adenine pump as the bidding goes up!!!
