How about a visit to www.gcrailway.co.uk/? Shed tours this weekend. And of course trains running.

Some good ideas there,
Not done trains before so thats a possibility and was toying with the idea of Birmingham but forgotten about Bourneville so that could work too.
See, I know someone here would have some good suggestions
Thanks Guys
I did suggest to the GF (who's a keen pentax photographer to) that perhaps we could shoot some fine art nude but she objected saying it's to late to fine a suitable model :-O

Actually for a serious suggestion why not take yourself out on a mystery tour and just snap whatever you8 happen upon at random. Toss a coin for whether you drive north or south or east or west, etc

Not only a good idea but a brilliant one . I shall have to give it a go one of these days.

So she thinks you're not pretty enough to shoot then?

have a wander round the custard factory area. I was there last year and I Thought there was an interesting combination of hitech new build, old industrial and refurbished industrial/commercial buildings
