Arrange a get-together then advertise it locally in malls, supermarkets, any bulletin boards you can find, lfs, schools etc. Got a local freebie paper? Ring them and ask them to do an article about you wanting to start a fish club.

Meeting tonight, 7.30pm Stoke Hall. A BBC Planet Earth film is being shown. All welcome.

So Legend of the Seeker is based on the Terry Goodkind books? I have not watched Seeker on TV (my dad loves it) nor read any of his books. Perhaps I will try one myself.

Nothing wrong with that at all Joe, I just wondered if you had some interesting new fish or pants in mind that required a pH out of the normal range The meters need to be regularly calibrated too I think and I don't know what that involves.

It is a long drive to make with one so newly hatched. A pity though as I am sure it is going to be a very interesting weekend. I know the club has put a lot of thought, work and effort into it. :bounce:

Why do you want to be able to test such a wide range?

At that stage you might appreciate a weekend break Seriously, you are quite right and you have other priorities. Perhaps next year??? I think it will be in Hamilton then.

Because that would be rude Joe. Now all of you get back on topic!!! or I will send Zev with the pointy stick :tears:

3, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10

JBL says 3 - 10.

I am hooked on Imelda May's Inside Out as sung on the Graham Norton Show last week :nilly: It is a real ear worm! :roll:

Indeed we did. All our members brought along a container of tap water, one of tank water, and every pH test kit they could find. These varied from test strips, liquid and electronic over a number of brands. Some were new and some were many years old. All gave the same results no matter how old (or new) they were. The pH test stuff I use occasionally, when I get curious as I rarely test my water, is about 15 years old and still appears to be accurate. I do not have access to an electronic tester any more but my results are the same as other, newer, tests used. I have a fancy JBL test lab that Grant won years ago at a conference. The other tests in it are no longer accurate but the pH seems to be fine.

It depends on what effect you are after.

Zev I booked without the booking number too but did state it was for the FNZAS conference so no worries. 8)

We have just booked our accommodation, filled in and sent our reg forms off, and DC'd the money. :happy2: Looking forward to conference :bounce: Don't leave it until the last minute to book anything. See who you can share with to save costs - accommodation, travel etc. We will be driving up. If anyone needs picking up along the way it may be arranged

What temperature is the room? Because of our room temp, my cold tank is 32C :-?

stew How do you know he wasn't told off??

I seem to remember reading somewhere that sap wasn't good but I wouldn't swear by it.

and on a school night Joe!!! Tsk tsk

Have you ever looked in the "Members' Tanks" section?

All this ogling is starting to sound kinky!

If you take too many sea sick pills I fear you will just fall asleep and miss out on the fishing! I get sea sick sitting on the foreshore (I also threw up at the pictures once after seeing an inflatable zipping out to rescue the passengers from a crashed plane in the sea. One of the Airplane films I think, probably the original one) so you have my sympathies :-?
