Exhibition winners

[Neil Ashby]

Are there any pictures on the site of last years competition winners ?

If not , wouldnt it be a good idea to post this years winners ?

[Eduard Johan Hijmensen]

what exactly are the points the spiders are judged on?

[Michael Jacobi]

The photo slide show of last year's event shows the winners accepting their awards, but I do not believe there are any images of the entries.

Spiders are judged on talent, poise and swimsuit.

Cheers, Michael

Trevor and I walked away with 4 trophies, including Best in show last year, we are trying for Best African this year, the only one we have not yet won.......

[Neil Richardson]

I'm after your best Avic as this time, as well as defending my own Best African

Them's fightin' talk where i comes from

Beautiful spider Neil, that patterning is almost perfectly symmetrical.

[Neil Richardson]

Thanks, she had a bad moult, and her left leg IV is now slightly curved, so she wont be making a re-appearance this year.

Got something special lined up for the Avicularia category though, doubt most of you will have seen this species before.

[Colin D Wilson]

Can i come round and have a look (promise to keep mouth shut) we're both in Loughborough.

Saying that, do you want to share the car up to the BTS show, i'm going anyway so not bothered about fuel it'll only cost you a coffee or two

[Glen Feasey]

Colin, you sound like your getting excited there mate!

[Colin D Wilson]

Glen, i'm really impressed by these arboreals particularly Avics.
and "something i've never seen before" well thats a red rag to a bull i'm afraid.

Excellent
I'll split the petrol with you. My girlfriend would be coming too, plus a few competition entries


I'm steam railway side of loughborough

[Colin D Wilson]

Ah, bit of a problem, i've got three passengers already. Didn't think mate, just thought it was you and i could have fitted you in (plus eight legged extras) Sorry, feel a bit of a plank now.
If one of them drops out then the offer still stands for you both.

I'm near limehurst school by the way.
