Coming to the err...UK!
« on: August 04, 2006, 03:24:01 PM »
Yes thats right, by this time next year there is a good chance I will be in the UK on a photographic tour of Scotland, however, this greatly depends on my ability to secure time off from work to take said tour. Plans are to stop in several major UK cities before I arrive in Edinburgh, so ummm, yeah, all your brits had better be ready for my arrivial, I'm looking at you Mr. Karlos and you Mr. X-ray :-D

@cecilia

Yes there are many more I could have mentioned, and almost certainly plan on contacting once in the UK, I just wanted to keep it short and sweet :-)


@bloodline

There most certainly are :-D


@Cyberus

Sounds awesome, I'm sure I'll get plenty of nice shots :-)


@Karlos

Indeed it does, speaking of curry, I had my own little curry night last night :-D

@Cyberus

Thanks for the offer, but I couldn't do that to anyone, I really don't like making a burden of myself, but I'll certainly take you up on the offer of the tour, sadly it would only be a day tour as I won't have anywhere near the time over there as I'd like.


@cecilia

My socks shall remain on my feet or in my suitcase :-D


@X-ray

You being in Oz makes meeting you all the more cheaper :-D Seriously, work has been really flat out lately and with me trying to move into a new career I have even less time, so if I'm over committed with paying jobs I'll have to pass my place on the tour onto someone else and put my plans for visiting Scotland/UK back further.


@Wilse

I look forward to meeting you and local knowledge can't be beat when it comes to photography ;-)


@Brits, Scots etc.

If all goes to plan, and so far it looks like it will, I'll finally get to meet a lot of you, and as an added bonus, hear the myriad of pommie accents :-D

Something horrible has just occured to me, with bans on all hand luggage on flights to the UK from just about anywhere, all my camera gear is gonna have to ride in baggage, and there ain't a snow flakes chance in hell of that happening. I really hope these bans are lifted by the time I'm set to take off :-(

I'll be gutted (slang I picked up from my dad) if I don't get there, but I'd be even moreso if something happened to my gear, touring the UK without a camera would be like gouging out my eyes, it really means that much to me.


Edit...Hows that, 1666 posts...The century of the beast :-D
