Right, now that I've got your attention

This coming weekend (well, from Thursday really) English Heritage are opening many of their sites up. Some are not normally open to the public, so it might be a good chance to go and have a nose round for free. You may need to book for some venues, so beware.

More can be found here

And as if thats not enough, the following weekend (18/19 Sept.) it is time for London Open House Weekend. Office blocks, government sites, landmark buildings of all sorts let the public in for a look around. These are all free, but again for some places you'll need to book.

More details on this can be found here

I'm sure there will be some fellow Pentaxians at some of these events

This has been a public service announcement.

Thanks for that Ray - am down in Dorset at the weekend. Was going to Brownsea Island, but 'if wet' may pick up one of these

Heritage probably difficult to find in Wales

I have the pleasure of working in North Wales, can honestly say the people here are without exception, clean, honest, and hard working.
Off course once I go home (in England) I may reverse my opinion.

True, most of the valleys population has probably stolen it and fenced it on for 'fast' done up cars or illegal drugs
Well Gareth - At least we know one honest person - can't remember the name though

Try Cadw and see if they are hosting a similar event.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.
