BoB,

I'll go with the majority. Do you want me to speak to Jem & see if he would open on the Sunday?

That would be good John, cheers!
It may ultimately influence what day everybody opts for.
 
So it's Manchester 21/22 ???

I'll see what I can do. I may have an alterior motive to be up north, and combining pleasure with pleasure is always good ;)

If I can sort the cash (I'm thinking maybe stay over friday, meet you lot on saturday for a few hours) then I should be up for the meet. No guarantee however.

I don't think I'll get away with throwing a "sicky" for Saturday :( Maybe next time.

Maybe, if everyone is ok with it, we can ask Bob to re-toss the coin until Sunday comes up.

I've no probelms with switching to Sunday if it means more folk will be able to come.

Is there anyone who can't make it on the Sunday?
 
I can't sunday, it was a tentative yea for saturday too. I'll see you all next meet ;)
 
I could make the Sunday if that suits more folk.

I have spoken to Jem at the Real Camera Co, he would be willing to open up on the Sunday for an hour or so, if people would find it useful (i.e. somebody would buy something!). Please confirm if it is going to be the Sunday, so I can arrange with him - probably 14:00 to 15:00.

Oh yes, my tools for the day? Well, team to be chosen from: MP, M3, IIIc, Standard and (if it is back from cla) II.

I will probably also bring my IIIa which is going up for sale so that you can have a fondle and make me an offer ;)
 
Sadly I can’t make it; I’ll be sitting under an olive tree most of that day. Well somebody’s got to do it! But I’ll be with you all in spirit……, gin probably

:D

Sunday is fine by me. My wife is looking forward to me going. Should I be worried?

Sounds perfectly normal to me. ;)

I'll just give it a bit longer for everyone to see the thread before Sunday is official. (Not heard from Noel yet).

I'm looking forward to fondling some gear. :D
I like John's idea of announcing what gear we're taking. How about a roll call of who's bringing what?

I'll be bringing:

Gontax G1 with 45mm & 90mm lenses

Fuji GS645 Medium format

Ricoh GR1

Canonet QL25 (for Noel to check out)

C'mon guys make me drool!

Bob.

All I can bring, is the pre-war Leica Standard (with a pre-war uncoated Elmar 3.5cm), Weston Master V lightmeter, and the 350D.

For curiosity value, I might load up a Kodak VPK with a roll of Efke R100 127. :)

... wonder if I can squeeze that Minolta Autocord into the camerabag. Hmm...
