ok guys so a few of us been talking about when we should have the first essex meet of 2014 and we kinda decided end of may bank holiday weekend looked good so this is just really putting pen to paper to see what sort of intrest were getting. not sure so much on times and places yet but were defo up for suggestions though I kinda like the idea of a photoshoot at southend seafront then off to lakeside for a blast ?? Southend Seafront Photoshoot Details are 6:30pm KJ's Cafe Pier West Cafe Western Esplanade Southend-On-Sea Essex SS1 1EE Its a Saturday bank holiday weekend so most of us will have no work next day anyway as said this is just kinda getting numbers together at the moment will be good to see some old members and a good chance to meet new ones as well one thing I do know is it will be warmer than last years essex meet as it was freezing. ***BIG UPDATE*** Right guys due the dispersal order currently in place at lakeside we've had to have a think about the 2nd location, so rob (Rbz) has spent a fair bit of time sourcing somewhere suitable at Bluewater, as most of us were in agreement bluewater was a suitable alternative for the static meet so details for bluewater are as follows, 8:30PM Bluewater Greenhithe Kent DA9 9ST Greenhithe Imax car park, level 2 map supplied also .
