Hi Adrian

I'm glad to see that you have chipped in so to speak

The hill fort in your next of the woods is one of the options I was considering dependent upon the level of energy intended by the participants

The Menai walk looks a decent option

So far I have been contemplating matters, both Anglesey and mainland as the weather could differ on the day.

One of my thought was to try to obtain shots of the Menai Bridges from a less usual angle, maybe a trip at some part of the day to Newborough forest with the remote possibility of a red squirrel or two just to name a few

At present it the forecast is changeable so fingers crossed

As for a meeting place nearby/ place to eat I have experience of a few but feel the need for better options.

Hello Stu
The ascent to the hill fort (Tre Ceiri), looks worse that it actually is, although the fact that you are actually walking up to the top of a mountain might put some off.

You must have read my mind, in that a visit to Newborough, where you have the forest and Llanddwyn Island (only a 10 minute walk away, although I can't confirm whether this is accessible at high tide).

I hope I'm not tempting fate, but the BBC website has Saturday as being sunny for my postcode (20 miles away from Menai Bridge)

Anybody arriving on an empty stomach can take a visit to the Menai Deli in the High street. Work mates often get breakfast baps delivered, haven't tried one myself but Saturday could well see that change.

The Deli opens at 8am on a Saturday, see link

For lunch, there are some local pubs, such as the Liverpool Arms and Tafarn Y Bont - The Bridge Inn (I can ask work mates who can offer better advise).

Or a nice Cantonese lunchtime menu is available at the Jade Village, £8 when I visited a few months ago (12:00-13:30).

Sounds like a plan

Regards
Adrian

The Menai walk does sound like a nice walk, one I've been meaning to do for a while (that's the problem when you live so far away. :blush.

I've visited this location a few times, and posted some images.
My intentions on this visit (mid October), were to shoot some autumnal colours.

This didn't materialize however, as I was too early
Still it was a very nice walk, nobody about, Toby the dog loved it.

A few from the walk, all Sigma 10-20.

Thanks all, see how (bad) the weather will be this weekend, might get to experiment with faster shutter speeds.
