Uk Nationals.....

Any one on this board going? Have been absolutely amazed at the seemingly lack of interest on the chat boards. This is a really big contest, and yet no one seems to be anticipating anything. I know of several stealth koi
to be introduced to vie for GC. the event is scheduled for next week-end

I renewed my subscription to KoiFixx largely based on the hope that Brady would cover this event again. I want to have another look at that goshiki.

Tonio,

It is this weekend.

I know that they have an excellent Koi photographer lined up and that for the first time they will be posting pics on the BKKS web-site.

The existing URL is www.bkks.co.uk however they might use this opportunity as to launch their new site which is under wraps at the moment. If so, I'll post a link on my return from the show on Sunday.

I'll also try and get some pics myself.

Sick Sick Sick Sick sick...Shut the hell up all of you...I have to see ENGLAND on the WorldCup...I have to hear about Wimbledon...on all the British koi sites I see BKKS threads...and NOW HERE....i try toignore it.....
Damn it was an eye opener last year....more good koi at that show than i have seen in all my US shows. The top 10-20 koi were better than any koi I have seen at a US Show.
Plus all the keepers sound so regal talking with their accents...even when (insert the drinking smilie here)...(insert more drinking smilies)

I have begged and pleaded that they have the BKKS right before or after the London Olympics so i could get the wife to go again.....and perhaps others could go since the Olympics would/could piggyback nicely and get a large segment of the WORLD'S keepers to show up.

Luke, maybe you should stick around, the Dutch national show is held the 3rd weekend in August

And only one week later, the South East show.
