Northern Monkey · Post by **Northern Monkey** » Wed Feb 18, 2009 6:26 pm

Kamphol udomritthiruji, Is visiting the UK for the CSG convention which is being held near Wigan 20th-22nd March .
He is doing 2 lectures 1 of which is about loaches and should be worth seeing?
If anyone is unsure who this gentleman is you only need to look through the Species Index on this forum .. Many of the fishes are pictured by him .
Several new species of fishes have been introduced into the aquarium hobby by him most famous has got to be the Galaxy rasbora and also for the guys around here Botia udomritthiruji
If you can find accomodation I think there will be a good drink to be had at the night !
There is accomodation but book direct ...

I just looked at the program. If you see Ray "Kingfish" Lucas, (one of the speakers), tell him that I said "Hello". He has been responsible for getting me many of my speaking gigs.

It's looking like I should be able to make it too.

Just waiting to hear back from Hels to see if we will travel up together.
