The Reeds Gift Fair- Brisbane (July 2009)

Just back from the Reeds Gift fair at the much-hyped Brisbane Convention and Exhibition centre....

The Convention centre was ok, though my personal take is- Brisbane dont give it any more dough than it actually deserves- it's not quite like you! After a 38 km drive, to find parking signs 'FULL' is not fun- anyways like most City dwellers, this one's a die-hard optimist. So he drove around, scouting for an inch he might be able to squeeze into- none in sight. Whatever was available had police cars happily parked. A full 360 degree around the Centre later- found a lil burrowed parking...having parked, the elation vaporised in a jiffy when you read ' 0 - 6 Hrs- 13$' WTF!

ENTER...

Registration is quick, thankfully having done my registration online....

Now, Reeds have this reputation for hosting some of the best in the business- this time there were none! If you are a corporate buyer, dont waste your time- if you wish to pick a few things for home- please do visit by all means. You get some stunning deals and stuff that could do your home up- or probably your office. But none that you can inspire/ entice your trade-customers with.

The next 38 kms were spent humming WTF!
