Adrian,

It's no problem, it would only be sitting at home otherwise..

Will you be bringing your own lenses/SD card?

Hi Dave
Yes thanks, I'm fine for lenses and cards.

Again, sincere thanks.

Hello Dave / Stu
Thanks both for your generosity, greatly appreciated.
I'd be happy to use whatever caused either of you the minimal of inconvenience.

It looks like we have a date then

The BBC weather is currently forecasting light rain in the morning, whilst the Met office forecasts light showers.

Stu, what/where are you planning?

Thanks again.
Adrian

I'm currently without my camera

My old jinx struck again, dust in the viewfinder (a horrible speck right in the top, middle).
I managed to blow this off, but succeeded to introduce a few others,

By removing the screen (using the Pentax tool), I managed to scratch it.

This was confirmed by SRS, who very kindly advised that they would inspect for me (although it's not a warranty issue).

I am purchasing a new screen from SRS, and they will fit it for me. Unfortunately they are awaiting stock, so as it stands I can't commit at the moment.

It's been a week now, so fingers crossed.

Regards
Adrian

Hello Stu
Apologies for the late reply.

I mistakenly thought that the event at Fort Belan was on Saturday and Sunday, with you planning on attending the Saturday. Of course I've cocked-up, now realising it's Sunday/Monday

Whilst Saturday would (seemingly so far), been a great day weather wise, Sunday is forecast for heavy rain until mid afternoon.

I'll be keeping my eye on the forecats, and will get back to you beforehand.

Cheers
Adrian

The reviews on the "other" Pentax forums might be of help

Thanks Adrian

Option 2 being the free one may prove more popular but let's see what others think

Where is the nearest bacon butty shop to those loçations:
Hello Stu
Nothing on offer after Caernarfon food wise
Off the main road anyhow.

Basically the longer you travel on the A499 towards Pwllheli, the more rural it becomes
The older I've become I quite like it this way

cheers

Hello all

Well I have visited Sychnant Pass and reckon it may well play some part in our day Thanks for the tip Howard

I did not see all of it as cloud and fog intervened

We had to access it via Nebo as some unfortunate motorist had an accident closing the Llanrwst road - however as a result of this another location has been found

Conwy and it's castle has potential as do a few places near Dina's Dinlle airport just waiting on whether or not we may be granted access

Hoping for possibly an early is I start around with Caernarfon Castle or airport (Dina's Dinlle) then onwards from there

Perhaps a date can be set soon - I will try to do this before the end of the week

Regards

Hello Stu
If you aim to come as far as Dinas Dinlle, I can also suggest two other possible destinations as well (depending on interest).

1 Parc Glynllifon
Literally a few hundred yards before the turning for Dinas Dinlle.
Nice garden walks etc., one negative being that it costs £4 to get in.

Been a while since I last visited.

Check this for some images of the place link

2 St. Beuno's Church, Clynnogfawr
About four miles further along from Dinas Dinlle/Parc Glynllifon is the above, very old Church.
The doors should be open, but I could investigate further to confirm.

And three miles further along is home, sweet home

Cheers
Adrian
