Coffee meet - Sun 31 Jan (morning)
Posted: Tue Jan 05, 2010 3:10 pmIt has been about 3 years since the first annual coffee meet at Casa Reschsmooth, so figure it was about time for another.
In case the subject heading was a bit cryptic for you, it will be on the morning (kickoff at about 9am) of Sunday 31 January (2010). Physical ejection will occur from 12pm as residents need their nanna-nap from that point on.
Whilst I will be churning out 43 of my best beans at a time, our backyard is amenable to some good shootin' - particularly in the morning light: a north facing backyard with a tree-line at the back fence; backdrops including roller-doors (for the 'industrial' look), white painted walls (for the 'white painted wall' effect), painted doors (for the...oh, forget it), vegetation, wooden fences, etc; a side pathway between our house and the neighbour's; grass; concrete plus a dungeon (altough only under supervised access
).
It will also be good just to shoot the sh%t with fellow DSLRUserians over coffee.
Be warned, however, that there will be children about.
For the sake of space, I will be limiting attendance to 12-15 on a FCFS basis augmented for attendees having been DSLRUsers members for at least 12 months and a post count of at least, I dunno, a couple of hundred. I don't apologise if this sounds something not good, but given it is our primary residence, I feel entitled to be selective.
Please PM me if you wish to attend.
If weather is looking decidedly crap with a good chance of ordinariness, I will post on here by 7am of that morning that the meet is to be postponed - our interior space is more limited than the backyard - damn 1920s design - and is just not suitable for large gatherings. If no post at that time, assume it is still on.
