Thanks for the insight.

These guys hunt all over the world.

Yes Spike, that is the place.
We used to have two different exhibitions at the same time in different places, which was really stupid ( a question of big egos of two important men in the hunting community). Fortunately this has been solved and the two exhibitions have merged.

i went to it about 6 or 7 years ago and remember that there were 2 going on at the same time which did seem daft .

Thanks for the post and pictures Nyati, much appreciated!
