I started show my Fifes at local clubs and started to revisit the National Exhibition which by now was being held at the NEC in Birmingham. I entered a few Fifes as well and this is where I saw my first Lizard canaries.

On my return home I asked if anyone locally had any and by chance a man was moving away to live near the coast and had some which I brought all he had, as well as some show cages. This was the start of my love of the Lizard.
