Plenty of time in advance for it to warm up a bit, give people notice, plus just after payday so people don't have an excuse :D

Ok, first things first - Location?

Could always do London again, due to travelling being easier for people etc, and apart from that there really isn't much daaan saaaf :p - And travelling to the Lake District for one day is a no :p - But if anyone else has suggestions then go for it :)

THE PLAN
MEETING AT WATERLOO STATION BETWEEN 12 & 1 - TOP OF STAIRS - EMAIL ME FOR MY NUMBER INCASE YOU ARE LATE/LOST/GAY


Thanks to Oxygen for thinking of all this :)

Back to the topic at hand though, with a few days remaining and no plan i've started a google map with couple of proposed routes on it. Stage 1 & 2 currently but i'll add 3 in a bit.
Stage 1) Starting at Waterloo we head along the Southbank, via some skaters hopefully at the NFT building and follow the Thames around to the Tate Modern, poke our heads in the turbine hall to see what's happening before crossing the Millennium bridge towards St Pauls Cathedral.

Stage 2) We then could jump onto the tube from St Paul's to Liverpool St Station and proceed to explore Spitalfield Market (cake & coffee stop to keep our strength up) before hitting Brick Lane, Trueman Brewery, and the many Indian restaurants and vibrant bars with the pretty young things pouring out onto the street. We then check out some graffiti and do a loop back on ourselves, perhaps going past the Gerkin or detouring towards the Barbican Centre or the old meat packing district of Smithfields to end.

Stage 3) still in the planning but could start at Holbon and visit the British Museum with it's awe inspiring atrium, then walk through Soho, Piccadilly Circus, Leicester Sq, China Town, Trafalgar Sq, along Whitehall past No 10 Downing St into Parliament Sq, and then over Waterloo Bridge to get a shot of Houses of Parliament at sunset perhaps. ( Or reverse the walk if we are running out of time and start with Waterloo Bridge again and end in Soho for a bite to eat or drinks )

Stage 4) head straight home or there will be lights on the London Eye and in some of the trees which makes a nice shot, so a possible slaw walk back to Waterloo station ?

I'd be happy to if it doesn't clash with my exam revision dates (pre 28th Feb)
London is fine with me as long as it's arranged early! I'm a student in Hull, I need to buy cheapo tickets early.
 
Phate missed the last one, as did I.

I would be happy with London again as well as not that far at all for me really. I believe Shi Warrior on here as well would be looking to attend and if so could share his car to drive somewhere further afield (happy to help with petrol costs)

Day travelcard to London for me is about £17 I think so not bad at all either if going the train route. Would like to get some pics from up there as plenty to see and do in one day. Don't think there are many other places were we could all meet up and do a full days shooting with so many interesting places to go
