We are doing a beach forage, so maybe we could combine it with that. Thanks.

Are there any videographers? I'd quite like to do a long-netting demo that could go online.

Not sure about "proper" video, but mobile gadgets like Fiddlesticks Tim's iphone can do web-friendly video snippets.

We both have iphones and Tim has one of those little Flip Meno video cameras

I have a digicam I could bring along too, there will be no escape!

A couple of points/questions. As far as the shooting is concerned do we come armed? Is someone spit roasting a pig? If needs be I can probably arrange to kill a suitiable candidate and bring it along if the kit/operator is availiable. Which beach are you planning on foraging? How much of this activity stiff do we need to 'book' in for? Ok thats more than a couple of points

We've just decided to make a bit of a break of it and spend a week or so in the area. We'll try and meet a few downsizers as catch up with some of my family who live in the area-ish.

BB will take care of all ammo etc - talk to him about bringing your own stuff.

We might spit roast a lamb, but I think a pig would be a bit much.

I think the foraging will be Lee Bay, but I need to check it out. Can you recommend anywhere else?

Only things that need booking are the wine tasting, which you already have, and the boat.

Depending on weather conditions / price of jam / state of chickens and cats etc etc we might stay at Ma's a bit longer, she's not far away.
