ler's hope the weather holds barry, having seen many of paul's photos i would suggest that people listen closely to any gems of wisdom that paul has to offer.
alternatively wait until the end, knock him on the head when his back his turned, whip his camera and claim you took them all yourself.

It's currntly stuck in the "courier circle" whereby I go to Ashford and my parcel is in Deal, and when I get to Deal it has gone back to Ashford

Something has come up, so I'm not going to make it for the walk on Saturday. Bit gutted, but I am required elsewhere...
Hope those of you who do attend have a great day.

Think there was about 8 of us - nice, dry, chilly day for a walk, though the 3 miles were over 5 !!

I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

an excellent array paul, 8 is a very good turnout in february - in fact 8 more than the last photographic walk.
