Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Hmm... so I suppose I have passed the interview and the probational trial...



Well that could be a problem... I don't mind the occasional celery mixed in some of my meals, could have some problems getting paid in "celery" dollars as I probably will not enjoy them very much...

Just a couple of updates from today. The roster included Carl and Stefan, and Ivansng just couldn't stay away and even brought along his lovely wife Jennifer and family.I was flat out talking aquapopnics and caught up with Redbeard as well as a few other people who reported in on their successes with aquaponics. This is a great way to get feed back from people that don't use the forum.
A sample of the sideshow entertainment from the Pirate Band (Though the pirate that shared his salt and pepper calamari with me yesterday, wasn't there today
There was a lady dancing on stilts, don't know how she does that so far off the ground.!
Another bit of entertainment happened when one of the days ice sculptures, slid off its platform and 10 kgs of ice crashed through a barrier and smashed on the ground, gave us a fright and luckily there were no children close by.
It was probably the busiest day so far, aaah day 3 of 8.
Another treat was birthday ballons with a few Eden seeds enclosed. The balloons are biodegradable and the children can plant them when they get home and get a surprise when the seeds grow, the parents thought it was a great idea. Well done Joel!

Gday faye

had a ball there 2day we left home at 10am and have just got home
what a day .
the stand looked great
we herd a lot of people talking about it when we were walking around
hope you do well out of it

cheers Wolly

Went down for a quick look, well done guys it was well set up. Made it easy to show people what it is I am setting up and how well it works. Thanks.

How was the crowd today??

A little lighter today, but I was lucky to have another 2 really good helpers, they were Mark and Raelene and I have photographic evidence. That is the good news, the bad news, the photos are still on the phone. i am too tired to play around with it right now, (sorry). I heard Joel told you off for doing such a good job and rounding up customers to send to the shop, keep up the good work Ivan, We will make Joel earn his pay this week hehehe

Well yeah, so I mentioned that I will stop sending people his way this Fri and Sat when I am at the show again, but he later replied indicating that I should continue as before. Will start thinking of a way to make him work harder now... as punishment for telling me off....

Yeah, yeah, you show people think it's funny.. We've got it hard down at the shop... I forgot to turn the Air conditioner on today and it started getting a bit warm about 3 in the arvo..... Today I answered more phone calls than I have in the last 6 months put together..

Air conditioner?? I don't think there is that luxury at the show... It is going to be 30degC tomorrow and 27degC on Friday.

No you have lovely ice carvings though... And the constant smell of deep fried squid..

sheesh what a day a the office... Ive only just got home.
should be a few ppl coming your way Joel... had a great day

Sounds like everyone is having fun

Yap and go home smelling like one too...

Looks like a real good show you guys, well done

The ducks are awesome by the way!

Yowser... That's a long day Mark...
