Well today is Monday 3rd March, its a little bit chilly outside so looks like the weather man has it right and that we could be facing a cold snap.

Pond looked good over the weekend, im really happy with my water clarity at the moment I just hope that continues when I take the covers off come April time.

I have decided that I have 2 Koi to move on, one a 25cm Ogata Showa and also one 30cm Ogata Shusui, these are not show winner by any standard but they are attractive koi which I hope will go to a good home over the next couple of months.

On the 13th January the Essex Section held their annual AGM, it was a good turn out for was an important day for the club

I would like to say a few words about this year’s show which will be a two day show on the 21st and 22nd July. You will have two chances to see it. As in other years, we will be having some of the best koi from all over the U.K. on show in the vats.

We will have top dealers in the dealer’s stands, which will be situated around the edges of the show site, and they will be selling their usual koi related goods.
