It's been a loooong time since the last AP trip to the cattle crossing, anyone fancy one? September-October sort of time?
If anyone fancies a real giraffe, I could loan round some Brownies for the day and see what people get? If so I'd probably ask you to pay for a film, but if I developed and scanned other costs would be minimal.

I might possibly be persuaded to attend such a gathering...  |

If I'm around at the time, absolutely. Will be out of the country for part of October, but don't know exactly when yet.

I'm away for some/most of September (not sure about October) but if around I'd be up for it.

I'll watch this space. No idea if I will be either able or available but sounds a good idea. Don't know of any Oxford giraffes though.

Yes, I am not sure if we have anything planed for September / October but if I am free it would be good to meet up with some of the snappers and would be up to having a film shooting day.
We have friends in Oxford so could possibly make a weekend of it, I am sure they could keep Steph occupied whilst I go off and play cameras, though having said that one of them is into toy cameras so anything could happen.

If trend continues then I should be capable. I've been lugging a camera around on my daily walks to add to the exercise. Lens is a bit long for giraffes but I did manage to get another Chiffchaff although it was rather elusive. Wondering if I should swap the 100-400 for the 150-600 (or buy a x1.4 TC). I think the 150-600 is the lighter lens and the internal zoom is an advantage.  DSCF1704.jpg by Pete, on Flickr |

I could see whether we could get a mobility scooter for you,.... bugger, forgotten who - Pete? Or just hire an escooter for the day, if you are OK standing?
Alternatively, you could keep a place in the pub for us....

Alternatively, you could keep a place in the pub for us.... No need for mobility scooter. Yes, I have cracked standing up. My re-learning how to walk is going surprisingly well, for a bit longer each day etc. Hadn't thought about the pub. Soon be starting my third dry month, darned tablets and alcohol don't mix. |

Apart from the beer, that sounds like good news all round. Plenty of time to play it by ear in and sort something appropriate.

There are some days when I may not be able to attend due to family birthdays but I will stick my neck out and say that I will do my best to attend.

I'd be up for this! Might finally get that Swinger to you- sorry I put the box somewhere safe as I am in the midst of sorting some stuff out and generally trying to get things organised in here I know roughly where it is and by September/October I may have actually got everything done
