Default Possible mini Essex meet

As suggested by a few a small gathering with a photoshoot in Essex has been proposed between now and the Essex/Suffolk VOC Lookers Colchester meet.

Any ideas on location and time.

It is suggested that a Saturday or Sunday would be best and that it be in a couple of weekends time.

Comments very welcome please..

Perhaps we could all meet at the OC as normal and then once we have eaten, pop over to a scenic location for some pics?
