UK, certainly one of the biggest in Europe. So, it is always a fun
time to meet new people, talk about diet and exercise.
this year was no exception with
1,000's of people popping along to enjoy the weekend and listen to
talks, see demonstrations and get involved.
![]() As well as food, drink and treats

![]() or music for those who wished for
more cerebral activities

Again we failed to film Nathans
talk about exercise and diet. By all accounts is was a very
informative talk and encouraged many people to move to a plant
powered diet. (next year we will make sure we film our talks and
get them to you).
This year we did have a slight hiccup
with the contest. The dumbbells failed to arrive and so we had to
change the contest to a press-up (or push-up if you prefer the
term). Years ago we used to have ladies do it on their knees and
men do full reps. Now we make both sexes do full press-ups, the
only difference being that we make the men do a slight pause at
the bottom of each rep.
I really apologise to those who came
expecting a shoulder press and were surprised to find it was a
press-up contest.
We need to support our sponsors. They allow everyone to get a prize and so if you can support them, then that would be amazing.
