Membership

New members are always welcome, just come along to one of our monthly meetings at the RAFA club. You can even 'try us out' for a few months before you decide on joining as an official member. The meetings are informal (there's a bar!) and the club members are (mostly) friendly, approachable and happy to pass on guidance and information to anybody interested in bonsai- whatever your level of experience.

Message from Mr Tolley


Following my sending of what I thought would be a late BoBB 2011 entry, it seems Steve is of a mind to "kick a few ar**s up our way" as apparently club entries are conspicuous by there absence.

Lee- your gluteus maximus was a particular target!!
If your tree was preselected at last years show, you still need to send an entry.

Come on you lot, get your act together.......

Above is a link to a site that, though it isnt exactly Bonsai related contains some very fine images that I'm sure we can all appreciate.
