March Photo meet


Hemlock

Recommended Posts

Well, just been in touch with Castle Market. 2 problems:

1. THe castle ruins were flooded out a few weeks ago & they're still in the process of drying them out.

2. The bloke in charge of the appointments is on holiday until next Monday.

 

so, we can leave this one until we can get to visit the ruins if you want.

 

But, we need other suggestions instead! So, where else does anyone fancy?

 

Please post asap so we can arrange something Thanks X

Does anyone remember the old Sheffield markets the “Rag and Tag” and the “Norfolk Market Hall”? I used to love going round these places with my mum when I was a kid in the early fifties.

 

My Grandma used to tell me about the rag n' tag market when I was a sprog. This was in the early 60's, when my Gran was in her 80's. Are you sure it was in the 50's Neoteric? From memory I thought my Gran said it was popular in the 20's :o

Yes think this would be better left until we can arrange the guided tour.

Can I suggest part of the Norfolk Heritage Trail see this link. Bit pushed for time now but I know the area quite well and could come up with an itinery/route - but would involve a bit of walking and uphill?

Thats a shame, I've only just found out that there is any castle left and now can't go to see it :(

Anyway what about Endcliff and Bingham parks, should be the flowers coming up water fowl, maybe a pair of swans, Shepherds Wheel the river, and yes Imp, perhaps even some bushy tailed tree rats

I think we'll postpone a meet until Saturday 8th March seeing as the original meet has been postponed.

Other ideas for this meet have been:

Endcliffe & Bingham Parks, & Shepherds wheel

Norfolk Heritage trail, (but best left until guided tour arranged)

Graves park - animals & ponds

How about a scrap yard? Or boats on Victoria locks?

 

Any other ideas? Not mch time left to arrange anything beforehand.

Just had another idea - how about Wentworth Garden Centre, with interesting gardens & animals & Wentworth Woodhouse - the largest fronted house in England. Plus parkland & 4 follies. Sounds good to me. Lots of variety & interesting things to photograph. See this link

We could arrange lifts between us for those without transport, or perhaps me & pippo or neoteric could find a link for public transport for me - they're really good at finding links:D

So, who's up for this?

Or do the other ideas sound better?

Venue with most interest wins!!
