Hi all.

The campaign to produce a quality photo for next year's UK FTOOC Calendar Competition is on again.

The good news is that we have in mind something a little different this year!

The bad news is that it needs a weekday afternoon time slot, and not a weekend or evening as in previous years. In order to get involved, you'll have to be able to attend on the afternoon of Thursday 22/9/05. We'll by finished by 5:30pm. Half day holiday, anyone? Smile

If, for some reason, we can't get the photo opportunity we want on that day, I have arranged a "contingency" date of Tuesday Sep 27th - also in the afternoon.

I don't want to spoil the surprise, so I won't spell out exactly what the plan is. If you'd like to attend, please pm me for details, or email me ([email protected]).

It will definitely be the Thursday 22nd!

UNLESS...

It's raining.

It's a good point, Jason. I'd better ring you the night before and let you know if it's on. That way, if the weather is hard to call, we won't get caught out.

Could the following people please pm me their mobile/work phone numbers:

Paul (ph3var)
Vlad
Jason

I've already got numbers for everyone else.

Cheers!

Well as it turns out I wont be able to make the photo shoot any more.

Why you may ask:
Because some f**kstain decided to rear end me today and my poor baby is looking pretty bad.

Just when I get her how I want her and bam f**ked.

Aw, no...

Are *you* okay? In 12 months, the car will look better than it does now, but if you've got neck damage and it's not treated, you will be a lot worse for wear in a year.

Really sorry to hear. What the hell happened???

The photo shoot weather is looking good. Over the weekend, Thursday's outlook wasn't too rosy... it was listed as "Showers". It's gradually improved through "Few showers" to the current forecast of "Mainly fine".

So... unless there is a sudden deterioration, it's on!

I'll ring everyone tomorrow to confirm the final call, and post it up here too.

Also, the photographer needs to be done and dusted by 4pm - 4:30pm. This won't suit those few people looking to arrive late in the day. Apologies to anyone inconvenienced. If you do wish to drop in between then and 5:30pm to say g'day, I'll still be there.
