Manoleica Posted April 1, 2016 Share #42 Posted April 1, 2016 That's not skeptical. That's paranoid. In Texas it's paranoid" in Ca put it down to skeptical.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
earleygallery Posted April 1, 2016 Share #43 Posted April 1, 2016 There is a section on the forum for new members to introduce themselves. Many other forums have a similar section and some make it mandatory for newbies to post there first. I just think it's odd for someone to make one post, and one post only, asking to meet other members in person for help with their camera, not having posted here prior to buying the camera or since, yet they have apparently worked out how to send private messages. They may well be totally genuine, but the forum wouldn't survive without active and public participation from all of us. What if we all just posted once then disappeared?

M9reno Posted April 1, 2016 Share #45 Posted April 1, 2016 Meanwhile... is anyone actually planning to join me in Oxford tomorrow? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Kilmister Posted April 2, 2016 Share #46 Posted April 2, 2016 Because of lack of activity I can only assume that this meeting never took place. May I suggest a meeting in late May or early June when I'll have wheels and be available. Days are longer in late Spring. Forget the OP if she can't be bothered. Let's just have a meet.

M9reno Posted April 2, 2016 Share #47 Posted April 2, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) The OP and I were the only ones there, I with an M3, she with an M6 and M240. We had a drink and went off for a photo walk. I'd be happy to do it again in May or June, depending on when others here can make it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RHarris Posted April 4, 2016 Share #49 Posted April 4, 2016 OP - Oxford is too far for me unfortunately. We drove through over the Easter weekend to get to the Cotswolds, my god, terrible traffic! However, if you are in London and feel like a face-to-face walk through of the camera would be useful, feel free to pop me a PM or contact me through my website (likely more responsive: http://www.rharris-images.com/). Disclaimer: I would not call myself a Leica expert. I have had mine for around 18 months, and although I don't take many images, it's almost always with me, so I feel like I know it more than well enough to help. It is a wonderful machine, IMO. I would agree with other posters on Overaard's blog, well worth a read through, lots of real-life tips. However, it can be nice to see things in real life too, rather than just staring at a screen.

Peter Kilmister Posted April 5, 2016 Share #50 Posted April 5, 2016 @M9reno: I was really sorry that I couldn't be there. I'd love a chance to be shown around Oxford with good company. Late May or June sounds good for me. We'll have our new car by then. Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M9reno Posted April 5, 2016 Share #51 Posted April 5, 2016 Sounds good. Once you have the car, please propose a date and we can try to organise the meeting around that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
douglas fry Posted April 11, 2016 Share #52 Posted April 11, 2016 Sorry, I should have subscribed to this thread....I live in the centre of Oxford and would be very happy to meet anyone.....I'm busy travelling with photoshoots till end May really, but the longer daylight evenings and a pub in town sounds great. I can recommend The Punter on Osney Island... :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
larsv Posted April 18, 2016 Share #53 Posted April 18, 2016 not sure what happened to the OP, but you sure are a good bunch of people Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernstk Posted April 19, 2016 Share #54 Posted April 19, 2016 I will only be in Oxford until the first week in June. Any chance of meeting before then? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M9reno Posted April 19, 2016 Share #55 Posted April 19, 2016 I'm happy to meet almost any time, though the next two weekends are not possible. Someone please propose dates. The King's Arms is a convenient meeting place, I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrycym Posted April 23, 2016 Share #56 Posted April 23, 2016 How about Saturday 28th May about noon? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M9reno Posted April 23, 2016 Share #57 Posted April 23, 2016 That might be doable for me, though the afternoon would be better. 3pm? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
douglas fry Posted May 8, 2016 Share #58 Posted May 8, 2016 I can't do the 28th as its the kids half term, so sadly won't be around for a gtg - another time? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
