I have now counted up the votes for either 13th or 14th August for the summer meet and most people can make either, with four votes split equally between the two dates so I am making a decision to meet on the 13th August as it will make it easier for people travelling.
I suggest we meet at 11.00 - 11.30 at the same place we met last time ( steve - eyebrows can help me out here) close to Tower Hill. I am open to suggestions as to where to go but for starters there is a great riverside walk from St Katherines Dock just past Tower Bridge to Waterloo with plenty to take photo's of.
Can you please confirm if you are coming on here and also if you email me I can exchange mobile numbers with you.
Really sorry to those that cannot make the 13th.
I'd totally forgotten about this, because I'm and idiot, but I'm planning on being in Nodnol on the 13th anyway, but with only early morning and (potentially) late evening activities planned, so a daytime meet slots in perfectly!
Location for the meet up spot last time was... hrm... this little park/building thing called Trinity Something, just north from Le Tower Of London: which is a link now, derp
Hopefully still make it! I'll be a bit late tho, as be coming down from Leeds by train. Would it be ok to grab a phone number nearer the time so I can catch up with people?
@blightygal Freida it will be lovely to see you even if you are arriving later. We can arrange somewhere to meet for the late ones some where along the route. You can email me on pheonixclb@hotmail.com and we can exchange tel no's nearer the time.
Oh, flippin' 'eck - I'd forgotten about this, an' all!
Um, 13th is tricky. I will be around London in the morning - but I have a meeting sometime (I think ten-ish?) and that's in East London. I then have to be in Colchester for about four in the afternoon, so I'm not sure what I'll be able to squeeze in during the day that day. :/
@manek43509 if you are in east london at 10.00 we meet at tower hill about 11.30 which is easy to get to from east london ( depending where you are ). You may be able to squeeze in a couple of hours ...I hope so!
@shenay@blightygal Oh, I'd love to be there, but as I'm super old and it's a *big* Birthday I'll be out the country celebrating/commiserating ... you'll have to drink extra mojitos on my behalf ;-) !!
If I can arrange for my husband to watch the kids for the day and if the train fare isn't too expensive I'd love to come to this.
Also if everyone is happy for me to come?
This is only a couple of weeks before I fly out for my wedding, so I'll be busy I'm afraid! I think the next one should be out of the capital... how about Nottingham??! ;)
@cindy - yep, get back from Malta a couple of days before but should be recovered enough for London on the 13th. Same as blightygal, may be a little late, the trains up from Weymouth take a few hours. Will have to arrange a meet-up in Weymouth and Portland this time next year as we are hosting the Olympic sailing events - just an idea!
@azza_l .. i was just going to put .. "if i'm not in NY" and then thought you guys would think i was showing off, so I put "for business" to let you know I wasnt there on holiday... seems I still look like i'm showing off.. hmmm lol
@andycoleborn aahhh no, shame mate. Its ok, i'll have to show everyone else my dragon ball Z head
@manek43509 live in colchester but i might pop up to london!!! love it up there - have to sort out a day off though but up for it!!!! i havent been keeping up with project because my internet is terrible!!!
*bump* ok looks like i may have a full day of photography on the 13th. Going from here to another photography do at 5... anyone interested in portrait work, feel free to join me :)
Hey Cindy if you're up for welcoming latecomers (to the thread and the meet) then @electricwriter and myself would love to join you. I'll email you ASAP with my contact details etc. Not sure I will make 11am, as I finish up in my job on the 12th (big night our planned), before I move to Manchester, but I'd so like to join you all I will have to drag my sorry self outta bed! Can't wait! Cx
@charli321 and everyone else ...all newcomers most welcome, the more the merrier. C an peeps email me on pheonixclb@hotmail.com with their contact details if they haven't already done so and I will get back with my mobile number.
@petervanallen Great news email me and I will send you my mobile number so you can contact me or visa VERSA ( incase something comes up) on pheonixclb@hotmail.com see you at Tower Hill
@toast@eyebrows I am relying on you guys to lead the route! So far I am thinking of doing the Thames river walk from Tower Hill towards Waterloo so that people coming by train can continue their way easily, but if there are any interesting diversions to explore let us know.
lol @cindy eerrrr... am I tour guide AGAIN? hmmm I dont have much experience in the thames walk but i'll try to check it out and do some research
@eyebrows well its what you make of it. 5pm is just a meet and greet.... you'll meet other togs and hopefully a few models as well. Where you take it from there, its all yours mate ;)
@eyebrows not sure I will go for the portraiture element ...by that time I may have a bit of a thirst lol @toast but you were so good last time ....seriously tho' its fairly straight forward following the Thames walk, I just thought you may have a few interesting detours up your sleeve lol.
@eyebrows why? does she ALWAYS say no to you? lol.
@cindy i'll try to do a bit of research next week :) Agreed that its a fairly straight forward walk but it'd be nice to get a little variety. We could jump across the water to the south side, go to canary wharf (althougth they may have issues with us taking shot there). And if we find a jetty we can catch a boat down to embankment area. Were also a short jump away from the flower markets in bethnel green, borough markets, spitalfield markets, brick lane
@toast Hi thanks that would be good. We need to bare in mind that we will have some late comers to the group so we need to have a simple route for people to catch up with us. Canary Wharf security can get funny so I suggest we skip that option. I suggest we discuss any detours from the river side route when we meet?
Cindy - thanks for including me on the list but unfortunately it seems I will not be able to make it. I'm still interested to find, along my travels, other 365 get2gethers - maybe one day I can join one. Wishing you all a fabulous weather, fun-filled day!!! Keep us posted with pics (obviously) and a few stories. :)
@cindy really sorry, i still can't make this :( hope you all have a good time and hopefully there's still some parts of london left standing for you to shoot!!
yeah the parts where we're walking wont be affected. Also the city of london have their own police force so we should be good. Famous last words perhaps....
@cindy Hi Cindy, have been off the net for a while (am using my daughters at the moment) so cannot always get on to the 365 site.
I'm ok for tomorrow. Don't know where you meeting but i do know The Tower.
I can get emails on my phone so i'll give you that. paulvine123@yahoo.co.uk
Hmm weather does not look great but I am sure we can take some great photo's from inside the pub and under the canopies , bridges and brollies. Should be an interesting day and don' t forget your waterproofs!
Can you confirm that you can make it.

@toast Haha, well, we'll see :P Planning to have something to do in the evening, but she may well say no, so I may well be free...

See you all on Saturday at Trinity House park next to Tower Hill Station between 11.00 - 11.30.
So far we have 12 confirmed and a few still to let me know. If you haven't already emailed me to get my mobile number, I suggest you do - so that if you are late you can find us on route. I look forward to seeing some of you again and meeting up with the newbies! If I have missed anyone do let me know.
Standard.
I'm ok for tomorrow. Don't know where you meeting but i do know The Tower.
