Newcastle Photoshoot - Sun 3rd Oct - Quayside

[wez]

Hi all, me and a few mates are organising a little meet down at the big car park at spillers wharf on the newcastle quayside.

Weather permitting - rain don't stop us but it some fear it lol

My mate is a pro photographer, he's gonna be down with his cameras (and his mk2 fiesta), I'll be there in my MK1 Orion with a few other definites

As always, the more people there is, the better the crack and general atmosphere - so get yourselves down.

Please no dicking about - good people and good cars, leave the streeto drifting and wheelspins till you can find an indusrial estate!!

This sunday 3rd Oct, we're gonna head down for 3pm to catch a bit light, then some nice moody shots as the sun goes down.

Cars/Bikes/Vans/4x4s... as long as you've got an interest in anything with an engine, GET YOURSELF ALONG!

please pass it on to as many forums as you want.

Cheers,
Wez.

If you've got a car that's not worthy of retro photography can you still come along?

norman, you alone, with or without car, will attract the attention of camera lenses ;D


i might pop down in the scimitar, weather and cortina re-commissioning permitting

If i am back from Northants in time, then i will pop along

[wez]

yes everyone welcome, like I say, not just for retro stuff - just people who have a general interest in cool motors or roll in something a bit different.

Not expecting this to be a huge meet, just something to put faces/cars to names and have a bit banter, we've got about 15 definates so far...

Hope to see some of yous there, i'll be in the red orion and my mate kev (photographer) will be in a white mk2 fester I think.

cheers


ps: according to bbc website, weather is overcast with sunny intervals - 12 degrees C... could be worse

[PandaSelecta]

well i wont be going to northants today (van speedo broke) so i will be popping along to this in the panda

[wez]

nice one mate - look forward to seeing it instead of the van lol

in case people arent sure of location, heres a map - maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode&q=spiller+newcastle+&sll=53.800651%2C-4.064941&sspn=12.4489%2C39.331055&ie=UTF8&hq=spiller&hnear=Newcastle+Upon+Tyne%2C+United+Kingdom&ll=54.968463%2C-1.583726&spn=0.0059%2C0.019205&t=h&z=16

big car park beside the "mushroom works" lol

nearest postcode i can find is NE6 1AR - just look for the HUGE white building

Weather check: "Light rain showers this morning/afternoon, should be cleared up by 4pm"

Just means the cars wont need a wash before we go

[Autofive]

[wez]

I just spoke to kev (photographer) and he is still going down, says rain is gonna ease off soon according to weather thats just been on telly.

[wez]

well cheers to cheris (panda) for braving the rain...

was a laugh, rain stopped at 4, sun came out and was a canny afternoon

good banter - you all missed out lol

[PandaSelecta]

Aye it was a good day out, and nice to meet some new faces

Sadly i found out you cant really wheel spin a panda ;D

[mav666]

Missed out, in fact not even had chance to log on for nearly 2 weeks, working 7 days a week just ain't fun.

Sounds like I missed a great day though
