ik heb toevallig afgelopen week gereserveerd....ben erg benieuwd of dit wat is.
Mede hierom heb ik nog niet gereserveerd voor oktober....het is namelijk best een dure beurs kwa transport en kwa standplaats..

Ik heb lovende dingen gehoord over de afgelopen beurzen, is 1 van jullie geweest?

Nog niet geweest, zou wel graag gaan .

Wordt een vermoeiende dag, de dag ervoor werken tot 00:00 uur en dan gaat rond 04:00 uur de wekker weer.....denk dat ik het deze keer maar zonder nachtrust ga doen;-)
Ik ben nog steeds er benieuwd naar deze beurs, en benieuwd of er nog meer mensen hierheen gaan!

Ik zoek nog een lift, kan ook eventueel stukje treinen station Mechelen is hier niet ver af.
Of eventueel kom ik stukje met brommer. Hoor het wel via pb .

Het is nog afwachten of de beurs wel doorgaat, hier het stukje wat verstuurd is naar de standhouders en wat op de site staat:

"Dears visitors of the Breeders' Expo homepage!

So far many of you came to know the BEE as a show with pleasant atmosphere and lots of friendly service and cooperation. Unfortunately I must shift the show in Duesseldorf scheduled for the 1. Mai 2010 in date and location because the respective authorities in Duesseldorf not only make it impossible to keep this tradition alive, but the constraints issued two days ago also make the show impossible looking at any aspect of common sense, economy, and also aspects of animal welfare. To hold the show despite of these constraints would mean substantial legal conflicts.

The Duesseldorf public order office has taken all measures to stop the BEE – apparently backed by the Duesseldorf political regime. In a first step the permission for the BEE unlawfully wasn't granted. After a painful and complete defeat at the Duesseldorf administrative court the authority had to accept they must issue the permission, and as a last desperate attempt has issued these constrains which, according to veterinarians, my lawyer, some vendors and others show the following attributes:

• partly they are simply unusual for events like this and show all signs of harassment without any functional background
• partly they have no juristical fundament
• partly they contradict themselves
• partly they are simply non-dischargeable, and of course not in the narrow time frame given by the show date and some deadlines set by the authority
• partly they contradict nationally and internationally accepted and proven knowledge of practical animal welfare
• partly they reduce animal welfare aspects to absurdity
• partly they cover aspects which are simply not in my responsibility as an organizer, partly I'm not even allowed to cover these aspects
• partly they unlawfully restrict the type and extent of the show

Since the respective veterinarian for the show indicated on the phone that he's not willing to discuss content-related aspects with me, it appears absolutely useless to convince him with arguments and facts. Obviously this was never a question of animal welfare but still is a question of rendering the show impossible via constraints and this way to find a legitimation for the unlawful behaviour which was determined by the administrative court. Any productive collaboration is made completely impossible on such a fundament.

I will possibly announce further information on the BEE homepage, further juristical steps seem possible. Due to the narrow time frame another summary proceeding at the administrative court is not promising.

I deeply regret this decision and would like to send you my apologies for any possible inconvenience you might have to face even though I am not responsible. To hold the show despite this situation would most probably mean to confront visitors and vendors with severe dangers and problems. Thanks for your cooperation.
