Any meetups in Kent...

[Bardster]

I'm suprised I'm the first one to post back...

I had a great time, it was a most pleasant and relaxing day. Lots of tea and chin- wagging Was good to see you all, we'll definitely have to do it again!

Thanks to Mike for organising and a special thank you to Geoffrey and Hannah who came and gave their time for two very inspiring workshops. It was a pleasure chatting with Libby about the area first thing too, thanks for taking the time.

I've posted some pics here: BCUK Meet 9/4/06

Be good to see some of the other pictures too.

Take care all,
Patrick

Good pics

It was a good relaxing day.. Lovely site too - and it looks as though we are going to be welcome to go back too

I was wondering when you lot would get round to posting about the weekend

So, how did it go? What did you get up to? What did the rest of us miss?
I was re-reading the thread yesterday morning and wishing I'd gone

Good pics by the way

The link worked fine but the pics aren't showing at all, just outlines and a little square in the corner of each one with some coloured shapes in it...

I've taken it upon myself to try to sort us out with access to Mereworth Woods in West Malling for overnight meets. The thing is it's owned by the M.O.D so organizing it is going to be a pain, but it's worth it if enough people are interested.
It's a good site (I spent alot of time there with ACF) with alot of potential and public access is allowed but is restricted.

So let me know if you're interested and I'll see if we can get something sorted. I'm not promising a good result but I'll give it a go

 

[Mad Mike]

Nice one Switch looks like a good site
I didnt realise there was any public access except the footpaths
best of luck with this see you on the 21st

 

[2blackcat]

Nice one, Switch

You can add me to the intrested list too

You won't see me on the twenty-first though

 

[nickg]

Thanks for bringing the wood billets at the last meet. Ive been contemplating carving a spoon for ages and I finally finished the one that i started at the last meet.

Picsare at this link http://www.onegoodturn.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/bcuk/spoon.htm

Also big ta to bardster for loaning the various metalwork to make the rough article.

The wood is apple and the finished spoon is 8" - 200mm overall - well chuffed

 

[Annie]

Yes I'm very interested, shifts dependent.
