Is that a typo in your constitution?

The name of the organization shall be “OffShoot Photographic Socieyty” or “OffShoot” for short.

Covey

Fergus,

You are more than welcomed to turn up tonight, everybody is welcome any monday night.
For tonight you will need a either bridge camera with a hotshoe or a SLR and a standard lens to get the most it.
We will have 1 or 2 spare SLRs if anybody doesn't have a hotshoe.

OffShoot is going strong with generally around 21 members turning up every Monday night.
Next Monday, Oct 13th we have Mark Sedgewick, IPF chairperson coming along to do a workshop on panels.
This will be a really useful workshop for anyone interested in doing their distinctions with the IPF

No, the club is alive and well ... at least it was before the summer. Try sending a message to stcstc and ask. He was chairman last year.
