andybarton Posted July 20, 2006 Share #1 Posted July 20, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Just wondering whether anyone round these parts fancies a stroll one evening after work, before the autumn sets in too badly. End of August maybe? Castlefield by the canal or somewhere similar? (Well, there is nowhere similar, but you know what I mean...) See if we can't find a pint afterwards?

Advertisement Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Hi andybarton, Take a look here Manchester meet?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
stunsworth Posted July 20, 2006 Share #2 Posted July 20, 2006 Andy, I'd love to but I'm still stuck in Wembley during the week :-( I might be interested if it was a Sat or Sun morning or afternoon. Favorite would be Sunday morning - easier parking - but I could get to the other times. Where's Pete Taylor? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share #3 Posted July 20, 2006 Sunday morning would be OK provided the wife's working Pete Taylor is around somewhere (he's posted today), plus there are others in the N.W. who might be interested. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elansprint72 Posted July 20, 2006 Share #4 Posted July 20, 2006 I'm in Wilmslow at present, demolishing part of my house, under strict orders from 'erself. so any excuse to get out suits me fine! I'll be in France until 10th August but would love to get together either one evening or (preferably) on a Sunday morning... what about the 13th? Where is John Reynolds? Pete.

andybarton Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share #5 Posted July 20, 2006 I am sure John will find this. There's also "CrazyDave the Lighthouse Thief ;)" who lives on the Wirral, Robert Smithies up there in the Lake District somewhere, a couple of guys from N. Wales. There are a few of us around here.

elansprint72 Posted July 20, 2006 Share #8 Posted July 20, 2006 ... and I will probably be trying to fit five bikes onto a four bike carrier. Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunsworth Posted July 20, 2006 Share #9 Posted July 20, 2006 I could make the 13th of August Want to pencil it in? Meet outside the entrace to the Science museum perhaps? Probably have to chain Bob Smithies to a lamp post to stop him heading in the direction of Granada studios. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share #10 Posted July 20, 2006 I don't know what Mrs B is doing on that day yet, but the Bank Holiday Sunday might be an option Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmr Posted July 20, 2006 Share #11 Posted July 20, 2006 Andy, sorry for not picking this up sooner, I've been building a stone wall around a soon-to-be flower bed for most of the day. I could have had it finished, and looking a good deal better, in Photoshop in a fraction of the time. I'd love to meet up with some of the guys from the forum, in Manchester for a photographic wander around and possibly a pint. Most any Sunday morning in August would be manageable, as would most evenings. Let's see what gets the best turn-out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elansprint72 Posted July 20, 2006 Share #12 Posted July 20, 2006 I can't do the Bank Holiday Sunday- got a big job on at Oulton Park. Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zanydave Posted July 20, 2006 Share #13 Posted July 20, 2006 Count me in, however I would just like to put the record straight. I never stolen a lighthouse in my life... It was just too heavy! Dave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlancasterd Posted July 22, 2006 Share #14 Posted July 22, 2006 I could make the 13th of August Want to pencil it in? Meet outside the entrace to the Science museum perhaps? Probably have to chain Bob Smithies to a lamp post to stop him heading in the direction of Granada studios. I could probably manage the 13th provided you don't intend to start too early - It takes time to get from Cardigan Bay to Manchester - a minimum of 2.5 hours even with the A55 open.

stunsworth Posted July 23, 2006 Share #15 Posted July 23, 2006 So how does noon on the 13th sound? Meet outside the entrance to the science museum on Liverpool street, lunch at Dimitri's Greek/Tapas restaurant around the corner, then a couple of hours shooting. Sorry for getting bossy, but I'm practicisng for the one challenge in Paris ;-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
