I wish all the Traders/organisers and buyers a GREAT day.
Unfortunately, due to family illness both 'MARIES POTS DIRECT' & 'TONY IRONS CACTI' will be unable to attend, but rest assured orders can still be made by Mail Order.
Hope you all still enjoy the day out by the seaside !!
Tony.

Great event with around 400 people through the door. Hugely enjoyable with large quantities of plants sold, many to newcomers to cacti and succulents, some of whom will hopefully be the collectors of the future. Nice one, Dave.
Re: South East Cactus Mart Saturday April 29th 2017
Over 450 paying visitors, adding in those who didn't pay - nurserymen & children - around 500 attending this event. Well done Dave, probably a record figure for a BCSS event other than a National Show. Glad all the hard work put into this event paid off.

Congrats to all who contributed to the great success of the day. People came from all over the place, many from the London area. Here's hoping that the local branch sees an increase in membership.
Just shows what can be achieved with plenty of enthusiasm, a belief in what you are doing, advertising and masses of plants for sale.
Well done Dave and team.
