Re: Calling all UK members
Well,
Its getting close to the meet so I thought I'd start getting the locations for meeting up Organised.
Plan
Because of the vagaries of the UK weather I suggest we meet for coffee at 10:30 at
The Castle Inn
Chiddingstone
Edenbridge, Kent
TN8 7AH
Then we head off (DRY WEATHER) to Bough Beech Reservoir for some wildlife and landscape photography - it's about 1 hour's mile walk according to the web or we can all pile into cars and drive there.
Alternative is Hever Castle wheer there is a Patchwork & Quilting Exhibition, demonstrations, and stalls. - There is an entrance fee
Individual Rates Castle & Gardens Gardens only
Adult £10.50 £8.40
Senior Citizen £8.80 £7.20
Child (5-14) £5.70 £5.40
Family Ticket £26.70 £22.20
(2 adults/2 children or 1 adult/3 children), not applicable to groups.
December - Castle only Adult £5.00 Child (5-14)
Meet up for lunch at 13:00 - not booked anything yet so need rough numbers of who's coming.

Re: Calling all UK members
OK, I'm coming.
And if Hever castle is National Trust, I'm a member.
Don't know if that helps or not.

Will you be on your own?
My boss decided she doesn't want to spend time with me and my pervy camera (nick name for the 100-400mm given by my daughter)
Forgot the link to Hever Castle

Yes, and rushing home to get to the rest of the Silverstone 24 hours.
SWMBO is going to stalk drivers (so what's new?) and forgot to tell me about the race.
Re: Calling all UK members
Not sure I am goiing to be able to make it the whole event.
I'll probably have to run around trying to find you! lol
Re: Calling all UK members
Just thought I would bring this to the front one more time since its less than two weeks away
Any more for the trip to Hever Castle?

Re: Calling all UK members
Just bumping this one up one last time, to say how much I'm looking forward to it, and in case there are any UK people in the SE who haven't seen it.
Cheers

Re: Calling all UK members
Looks like good weather, so I'll pack my new toys.
And probably bring everything, jut in case :)
I hope the M25 runs clear this morning !
Re: Calling all UK members
I am so upset that I couldn't make it due to financial difficulties.
I received a statement from my Bank this morning and found out that someone had a spending spree, of over £200, on a cloned version of my card in Nottingham!
Thankfully the bank will give the money back to me but it's all too late. The meeting will be done and dusted :cryin:
And I was so looking forward to shooting some nice portraits for you all.
Maybe next time.
Re: Calling all UK members
I brought along stuff so you could show me how to use it :D
Reflector, flash diffusers, I had a whole bagful of new toys to play with.
Next time, I hope you can make it.
Re: Calling all UK members
I hope so Paul. I was so upset I couldn't make it!
Did you have a great time? Get any nice pics of you all together?
I can't wait to see!!!
Re: Calling all UK members
Alison .. next time for sure! :)
We will be putting up pics for all your delectation - I think Paul is going to start the thread off.
Cheers
Mike
