Re: PAGB recent winners

I attended a PAGB advisory day a few years ago along with Tom, Ron and others from CCC. I have also had a 1:1 advisory session at the Photography Show.

Re: Somerset Trip

Gutted I couldn't join you this time as I was recovering from having had major surgery just a few days earlier. It looks like you had a great weekend and I look forward to seeing more of your photos. Nice to see pics of Priddy, which is 5 minutes from my house :D

It will be a good time of year to hear (and if you're lucky, see) the Bitterns which the marshes are famous for. http://avalonmarshes.org/ Nearby seaside locations that are good for photography ...
