Would it be okay for everyone if I bring a handful of photogs and some models?

Don't see any issues with that Gilles other than if we are deemed to cause a disturbance? (not sure if you need to notify peeps?). I'm thinking it would most likely take us a few hours to walk from the Tate to the Eye (especially as we walk through the 'statues').

I don't really understand what you mean by that Andi. Is it that a bunch of people together would disturb others because they're taking photographs?

And what are those 'statues' you mention, I haven't heard of those.

Hi Gilles, I think what Andi is saying is some places in London can be quite strict on where and what people can photograph. For example, we had a lot of trouble at Canary Wharf awhile back.

As we don't have any plans to be near anywhere with 'major security' I am sure we won't have any problems :o) Hope this helps, if you have any questions feel free to drop me a PM :o)

Between the London Eye and Charing Cross bridge there are a lot of those people who paint themselves silly colours, stand on a box and pretend to be a statue...until they want to scare a passerby!

Alright, thanks for the clarification.
I've sent out a newsletter to our members informing them about the trip, at the moment it looks like I'll be accompanied by one more photographer.

Great! Hopefully the weather will pick up a bit before the meet!

I'd LOVE to meet you guys but most December weekends are booked up to visit non-local family for Christmas meals/ present exchanges.

The only weekend I could attend is 15/ 16th December but since it's not 100% please don't let my availability impact on date selection (not that you would, but just saying).

If I can be there, I certainly will. It would be a pleasure to meet you and Andy in person.

Mark ( simms) mentioned a trip on the eye, anybody else up for it? Bonus is last time Talj and I went on it we got to jump the queue (though not saying its a good reason to be in a chair/on sticks) and, they actually stopped it whilst we got on!

Did check their website incase 'we' took a trip ourselves and yes, you'd get to jump the queue again Andi ;o) Something that will really make you smile....you'd even get to go free!

LOL Just the 1 official 'assistant' but speak to Andi about the amount of time you push my chair and he might get you a discount LOL ;o)

Looks like I won't know for sure whether I can make it till the 4th...at least that should fit in with those of you who don't plan too far ahead ;o)
