We're happy to announce that we'll be hosting a monthly social meet up and photo walk, named Bristol Leica Social. The first meeting will be on April 1st, 2017, and on the first Saturday of every month thereafter. We'll be meeting at the store on Baldwin St (3 alliance house, Baldwin St, BS1 1SA) at 9am. We'll be heading out from the store in self picked groups to take images around the centre, aiming to meet at a café at 12 noon to compare images and discuss all things Leica. The shop will be open as usual, and we will be here as usual to have a chat or demo any items (depending on stock availability) There is no cost to attend, but attendees are encouraged to bring money for any refreshments required as you walk around. Leica users of all kinds are welcome, and so are those who don't own a Leica but wish to learn more about the brand and the beautiful products that they offer. For current updates and more information, we have an event page on our Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lcebristol/.

Hello! We are offering a free 1 hour tutorial session on the Leica M-Monochrom (typ 246), here at our store in Bristol, on Baldwin Street. The session will be a great opportunity to get to know the Monochrom if you haven't had a chance to use it yet, and as long as the weather permits us, give you some time to use it around the harbour side with our resident Leica expert Tom Greetham. Those who attend our free tutorial session will get the chance to partake in some exclusive Leica offers as well! We are pretty flexible regarding dates and times for this session, so please let us know if you're interested and we can try to find a time that suits you. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! If you wish to book a place on the course, please email bristol@lcegroup.co.uk or call 0117 9291935. We look forward to seeing you there.

That's great, I'll put you on the list. Just let me know if anything comes up. This day has a slightly different twist to it and is in a (I think) better location. Let me know if you need anymore info. Tom

To those attending the street photography workshop tomorrow, really looking forward to seeing you all. Our plan is to work around the weather. We may rejig the day so that we are running the indoor session of the day in the morning and then go out in the afternoon when the weather has calmed down a bit. Please meet at the Bristol Hotel (postcode BS1 4QF) and we'll see what the weather is doing, if dry we'll head out first thing. I have planned a route that contains quite a bit of covered area, so we should be shielded from the worst of the weather. The forecast says it is supposed to be raining in Bristol right now and we have a dry day so we'll see what tomorrow brings! Many thanks, Tom
