Hey Ingrid, sorry to hear you won't be able to make it but hopefully we'll catch you at another GTG sometime in the future! :o)
The pressures of yesterday have eased a little here so hopefully, depending on my health, I will still be making it on the 8th :o) With a bit of luck my wheelchair pusher ( Ecce Signum) will also manage to cram the GTG into his schedule too :o) I know we have both been looking forward to meeting you all :o) |

| Okay, at the moment it's Gloda+2, with a lot of maybes. We'll probably arrive around 9am and walk around a bit on our own and meet you guys for lunch? |

| I'll bring the 17-55, and 580EX, not sure about the 70-200. My tripod legs only weigh 1.6kg, but then the head also weighs 1.5kg :/ But I'll need something to take night shots with. Donno if the monopod is going to be that great for those. Maybe I'll get a Gorillapod by then, that'd be useful. |

I should be brining the lot, Tripod, 550Ex, 70-200 f2.8, 17-40 f4 and maybe the 85 1.8.
Oh, and my camera.
However, if anyone has the standard Manfrotto attachment on their cameras you are always welcome to use my tripod if you like, save you carrying yours about. |

Pity ive only just seen this!
Im heading to London on the 15th.
If anyone if around, there will be an interesting photo opportunity, hundreds of Santas will descend on London for the afternoon!
Just thought if anyones around it would be nice to get some good images from the day! |

I should be getting my SLR zoom Gorrillapod for mounting on the wheelchair this week but have no idea whether it's going to be any good so I'll make sure I leave my tripod 'thingy' in my bag and I may well take you up on your offer Mark :o) |

| Bah, eBay went crazy about the Gorillapods and the set that ended today sold for a total of £33 when you can get them new for £34 (which is still expensive). |

It most certainly is :o)
12 noon by the Millenium Bridge (Tate Modern side) a good time and place for everyone?
Anyone else wanting to go on the London Eye when we get there? |

Hi all,
I've just joined dpchallenge in the last 10 minutes so I'm as new here as new can be. Been at pbase for a few years (id= tradescant).
I'm based in Newcastle but often work in London. If my job has me down there that weekend I'd love to join you - would that be okay? Alas I'll not know unti later this week what my diary and travel arrangements are so can't give a definite 'I'll be there'. |

THE PLAN!
I'm away from the PC for the next few days so I thought it was best I post a 'plan' for the GTG! Here goes...
Meeting Point: By the Millenium Bridge opposite Tate Modern. Checkout the MAP
Time: 12 noon
Members Attending:
Ecce Signum
MAK
 Hanae
simms
 gloda +1
dainmcgowan
booboo_goon(poss +1)

What are we planning on doing?!
Taking a leisurely stroll along the southbank up to the London Eye. Refreshment breaks will be made along the way (anyone know a good pub?). There will be time for anyone wishing to go on the London Eye, after that? Well, we'll see how things go :o)

May bring someone with us too but wont know until the day. Might meet up with Simms earlier in the day at tower bridge, anyway, be good to link up again Talj.
I dont think Hanae's camera will be fixed by then poor soul but we still have the Fuji s602 |

Due to a family emergency I will not be able to make the GTG on Saturday, which is not what I thought I would be saying up to an hour ago. I am sorry that I cannot make it as I was looking forward to meeting y'all but such is life, I guess.
Have fun, guys! |
