Out for dinner tonight with some of our new friends from around the area and in attendance at the auction. Many stories from their Koi past, ups and downs along the way but the passion for the hobby is very evident!

An entertaining night that saw the infamous Chicken Wing challenge take place. Myself, Ryuki of Narita Koi Farm, Hiroshi Mano of Dainichi Toyota, Joe from KoiKichi Thailand, Mike Hughes, Paul Ashton and Ricky Stoddart underwent the challenge, eat as many chicken wings as possible! This sounds tough and all a bit silly, but they were delicious! If only they had those places in the UK!

Very funny night.
