Any Bonsai enthusiasts out there?

Am talking about enthusiasts who make their own bonsai from seedlings.

Have just sprouted several lemon seedlings and read that they are very appropriate for bonsai training. The photos on the internet ar beautiful! I don't expect to get as far as having fruit but thought it could be thrilling to attempt a mini tree.

The trouble is that while there are loads of written instructions online, it would be so nice to have a real live human being available who wouldn't mind answering the occasional (stupid) question from (stupid) me.

Anybody there?! (fingers crossed)
