Ooh ahr
The bonsai community sadly lost a true character earlier this year. Tony Webber was heavily involved with the Phoenix Bonsai Group and the Wessex Bonsai Society and spent a great amount of time and devotion to his hobby.
His trees will be auctioned in Salisbury on Sunday 3rd July. For further details see bonsaiauction.uk

Sandra Knight tribute
It is with great sadness that I write a tribute to Sandra Knight who sadly passed away last week. Sandra was a very big part of the Warminster bonsai club, not only did she support her husband Clive with his bonsai trees, she was a keen bonsai enthusiast herself and had many lovely trees which she was very proud of.
She will be very greatly missed by all who knew her as she was a very friendly and sociable person who loved going to bonsai events and meeting the people that went to them.
She was treasurer at Warminster and Salisbury clubs and worked hard in keeping accurate accounts and keeping the clubs solvent. Our sympathies go to Clive whom she was married to for forty years.
She loved bonsai and club members were fortunate to see some of her trees on club nights when she entered tree of the month. She particularly used to enjoy entering the Christmas tree of the month and everyone will remember her well-decorated and colourful bonsai trees.
We will miss Sandra greatly but not forget her and her love of small bonsai. A small tribute was placed on the Warminster Bonsai display at the Swindon Show dedicated the display to her love of the art.
