I thoroughly enjoyed Peter and Normans evening on mounting and came away with many tips which I will now pass on to my personal assistant (husband!!) to ensure he does it right!!!!!!! Any tips and guidance are always welcome-I could reciprocate by making the tea! As a relative newcomer and beginner I would endorse the above.

I am more than willing to assist other members either via Email, telephone or face to face in any way that I can. I also believe that we should make much more time at club meetings for the basics of our craft, or ,(whatever you care to call it), Converse with and encourage other members particularly new ones. Also to spend a lot less time on poorly judged competitions which can be very off putting to new or potential members. My contact details are readily available from the club handbook. If anyone cares to contact me with questions on any aspect of photography, I will, to the best of my ability, provide answers. I totally agree with the sentiments Keith expresses.

I have often felt that club life is so busy that there is too little time for members to get together and talk about the hobby. The kind of chat that can happen, given the space, can be very helpful. I know that I benefit from conversations that I have with other members though, of necessity, such conversations take place privately outside club meetings. If we could use this website as a forum then words of wisdom could be shared by all who log on to see what is happening and all could join in. It is not a complete substitute for similarly directed in-club activities for obvious reasons but it could be very useful. So let's start!
