farnz Posted March 26, 2014 Share #1 Posted March 26, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) Forum member Philipus has let us know he'll be in London this Saturday (29th March 2014) so if you fancy a pint or two or a coffee, talk some rubbish and have a laugh we're meeting upstairs at The Chandos pub at 6pm on Saturday - please join us if you can! Please keep your eye on the London Shops and Used Leica Equipment thread in case there need to be any last minute adjustments. I'll also try to remember to reflect them here. I look forward to seeing some familiar faces and if you'd like my mobile number please pm me. Apologies for the short notice but this grew out of nothing. I'd appreciate it if you'd very kindly respond here if you're intending to meet up so that we know who's coming if we decide to move on later. Pete.

philipus Posted March 26, 2014 Share #2 Posted March 26, 2014 Thanks for creating this thread Pete. I've updated the other one too. 5pm would suit me a bit better so I'll be there then and others can join as it suits. Really looking forward to this.

andybarton Posted March 29, 2014 Share #13 Posted March 29, 2014 Lots of suspects there this evening, both usual and unusual. Sorry I had to leave the party early. Oh, and if you want to see what an electronic viewfinder should be like, squint through a Sony A7. Amazing (thanks David) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

philipus Posted March 30, 2014 Share #20 Posted March 30, 2014 Thanks everybody for a very nice meeting yesterday. This forum is like a secret globe-spanning club where one will feel warmly welcome no matter where on the planet one happens to be. I'm sorry that I arrived later than anticipated and didn't get a chance to speak more with you, Andy. And Dan, good luck with the Globetrotters talk. I will post some photos as soon as I've developed the rolls. All the best, looking forward to the next time Philip Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
