Clean Expo in Australia

Well we've had 2 days of the Aussie Clean Expo. The final day is tomorrow. The show is not quite as big as Connections. But keep in mind that Australia has a much smaller population than America. And keeping that in mind, in all fairness this is a stronger show by comparison. There have been a few hundred cleaners here. It's been an awesome program. Steve Toburen has taught some classes and was the keynote speaker. And in addition to a whole line up of excellent speakers, I had 2 parts on the program too. The Aussie's are such warm and down to earth guys and gals, it's been really nice to hang out with them! Here's a few of the photos of the show. By the way, you'll notice that HOS sent over one of their new OP machines. It's super smooth and everyone loved the design and build quality. The show has been a blast! Kudos to John Turner as well as all the sponsors! It's been an honor to have been a guest at this event. Well it's a couple more days in paradise and we make our way back home. We're gonna miss this place when we go!

Here are a few pics...

I've been here for the past 4 days. 2 days at the expo and the previous 2 at Steve Toburen's course.
It has been an honour and a great pleasure to meet both Steve, Rick & Nancy as well as hang out with my carpet cleaning mates.

Regards
George

THose are great photos George thanks. Even the BLACK ALE looks great.

I've never attended a connections but am getting more & more excited as you guys share your experiences each year.

So what does it take for Orbot to fold down to 30"? A half a turn of a wing nut? Telascoptic? What?

I hope to be able to attend my first cleaning event soon I want it to be a blast for my first one.

Enjoy yoourselves guys!

Thanks
