Thanks Leon. It's only 10-15 minutes on the train from Ashford to Chilham, so I'll hop on and meet you there if that's OK.

I've just booked - looks a nice place!

BTW for the car-free ones, there's a frequent bus service from Faversham to Boughton. Look forward to seeing you all again + some new faces.

Both Seasalter and Reculver look interesting - and Faversham Creek/marshes if it's not too far??
Regards to all.

faversham is closer than both the other locations - there is an interesting boat ard, and a nice walk through the old brick fields - yes, that sounds good. then Seasalter and Reculver sort of follow on.

Bring montains...

Last time I forgot my portfolio and was mortified, as everyone else bought quite a few with them...

So the more the merrier - Mark

Bringing a selection of your work is not mandatory but is highly recommended, and looking through it all is definitely one of the Gathering highlights for me!

I was hoping to hail the hotel from home in the evening ... but my car got badly bruised on the boot from behind by a beemer on the way back.

Awaiting their insurers ... !"@"&!

All else is well, but driving around with a loose end.

I have taken a few shots at Seasalter, but what's Reculver like? Is it marshes/beaches?

If it is anything like Seasalter then I will be a happy little bunion, mind you, after Symonds Yat etc. Tony did put together a lovely little set of locations...

No pressure tho - Mark

Always, Always Avoid Alliteration!

(and beemers!)

I hope you're okay, Sandeha. Look after your neck and back over the next few days (speaking from painful personal experience).

John - Great to hear that you and Ann got in under the wire while there's still space left.

Leon - At this rate it might be worth looking around for overflow accommodation...!

Mortified...

Mortified! Didn't notice that.

Mind you, I was also looking forward to the next bottle of wine...
Amongst others!

Seriously tho, I was actually quite embarassed, I had spent ages preparing (the portfolio) it - then left the damn thing behind!

The only thing I could show was my entry for Circle 2... poor tho it was.

But then you (and Win) have probably seen it all before Dave... If you hadn't by then - you sure have by now, along with the other Midlands Monochrome group of course!
