CAMBRIDGE meet up of Alamy contributors


Recommended Posts

 

Hi everyone,

 

Just to let you all know, officially, the next Cambridge Alamy Contributors Meeting, (hereinafter called CACM), will be held at 12 Noon on 6th February 2019 in The Wrestlers pub, Newmarket Rd, Cambridge, CB5 8JE. The pub serves up the best Tai food in Cambridge and has both alcoholic and soft beverages but no coffee or tea. The venue opens at 12 noon and closes at 3.00pm. If the discussion is running on we can adjourn to a local coffee house only a short walk away.

 

There is free parking both in the retail park across the road from the venue up to 4 hours, and in the Tesco carpark behind the venue up to 3hrs. BUT please check the notice boards just in case.

 

To anyone who may not have been to Cambridge before the bus lanes are monitored by cameras and if you are caught using them there is a hefty fine.

 

There are now 16 contributors in the group and I will be sending emails to each and everyone early in the New Year as a reminder.

 

Considering all that has been happening in Alamy Towers recently there is likely to be a lot of discussion about the pro’s and con’s of our positions and possible actions that could or may be taken. Should be a lively event.

 

Just to add to the interest Alamy have already mentioned in another thread that they will try to get someone along to listen and talk to us.

 

If you definitely know you can make the meeting please let me know as soon as possible as we may need to book a table should the numbers be great enough.

I might be able to pop over. I have not been to Cambridge for 50 years, so it is about time. I will confirm when I have booked my tickets.

Rolf

 

That would be great. It is always nice to see a new face at the meetings.

 

Allan

 

BTW the total now stands at 6 at the meeting and 7 if Rolf manages to come too.

So far I have had 4 members say they cannot make it to this meeting.

Not bad so far considering we have 17 registered/regular members.

That is great news. So we are seven now. Ignore Mick's last remark we have ways to smuggle you in without a visa.:D

 

Lets see if we get another one or two.

Thank you!

I'm used to the visa-business. In the late 60s I had to go to the Home Office "Aliens" office in Holborn and sit on a bench and get my visa renewed. It is really sad if we have to go down that road again.

Yes let's hope that doesn't happen. Perhaps there will be more clarity by the time we meet. Have a good trip.
