Re: Emmitts Garden

Glad you enjoyed it, Ron. It is supposed to be good in autumn, as well. Maybe an outing?

Re: Bluebell Woods

There is a good display at Emmetts Gardens at present which has the advantage of not being too far away. There was also a good display of tulips in the formal part of the garden. I was there this morning when it was relatively quiet; the car park was much busier by the time I left. This is one of th...

Re: Suggested Outing - Faversham (17 May)

Following the discussion at the club meeting on 6 April, the outing will now be on 17 May . The brewery tour will not go ahead, having been tantalisingly shy of the required number to make it viable. I will devise an itinerary and post the details here in due course. Members who have expressed an in...

Re: Suggested Outing - Faversham (Date TBC)

I suspect the brewery trip is now not viable ................ Tom is correct. We do not have the numbers so I have cancelled the provisional booking. It is a shame as it would have been something different and an unusual photographic opportunity, but that is the way it goes sometimes. * I set the d...

A topical shot for this month. A member of the "Whitstable Yarn Bombers" is putting up some knittting made by the group in support of Ukraine as it suffers from the Russian invasion. The installation is strictly unofficial and the site is itself an artwork located by the harbour. I do not ...

Re: Suggested Outing - Faversham (26 May)

UPDATE I have provisionally booked a private tour of the Shepherd Neame brewery for 26 May at 14:00 . They are aware that this is a camera club visit and that we will be taking photographs. It is a working environment but based on my discussion with them, we should have good access for the majority...

Re: Suggested Outing - Faversham

Responses so far from those interested in the outing: ⋅ David B ⋅ David N ⋅ Tina ⋅ Tom So far, only David B has expressed support for a brewery tour but the others replied before I added it as an option. It would help if those other members could state their p...
