Oh! I just came up with a little project for me to do, as last years pics were s*it... But, i need assistance, long shot but no better place to ask..

I need an instant camera of some sort (mine are all polaroid and ive no film left) and a few sheets of instant film, colour and/or B&W (which off course I will pay for)... Can anyone sort me out?

I'm also looking for a roll of fast colour film, ISO 1600 or over, again which I will refund to you, can t make it into a shop before the weekend...

Can t wait now!!!!!

Tallon

When you say 'instant camera' do you mean a disposable one?

I can give you my Minolta and endless film supplies

sineadw

I planned on using the 4 eyed beast myself Sarah That's if I manage to get in for film. I haven't seen it since I gave it to you, and I have a medium term project planned for it for the summer/PP, so I need to get to grips with it. Sorry Polaroid 600 models are no good to you no?

I have some centuria super 800 colour you could push if you want? If I get into Gunns before Friday I'll pick you up whatever you want, but I'm not sure if I'll make it, so I don't want to promise..

Tallon

Something to get you in the mood...

Charlie-Ville :pac:

Apart from a few rough ones , that's not a bad crowd

Ah now, don't be scaring off the fresh meat people on their first Charleville trip :eek:

Anyway, nobody's been axemurdered by a random internet stranger on a Charleville trip in ages.

Even cabaal hasn't been wandering around the dungeon waving his chopper about willy nilly for a couple of years now...

sNarah

Tal, I did mean instant instant but thanks!
Sinead, I have the polaroids, just no film and no time to pick any up... Even a fuji instant would be brilliant... Will give you a buzz to see if you're making it into gunns

Any idea on rough time frames? I have to head to Tipp at some stage, so cannot stay the night

I won't be staying the whole night, I could give you a lift. Will be confirmed on Saturday only though.

sineadw

Jumps up and down with excitement

Hi There,

Anyone going from athlone, I could really use a lift

the_syco

Unfortunately, something came up, so I'll have to bail

I hope to be around next year, though

=-=

Also, remember, half the fun is finding what you cannot see...


Such as the above door in the corner...

Also, here's the library... you can have a look around.

I'll have this with me. I *think* it works. I only hacked the battery pack this afternoon so I haven't had the chance to run film through it yet. I'll have a couple of different film packs for it, you're more than welcome to use it to take a few shots.



Failing that, I hope to finally have my medium format (6x7) lego pinhole polaroid up and running by Saturday, so you can have a play with that too \o/

Tallon

Someone say Lego? :eek:

Music to my ears

Why all the talk of tents? I thought this thing was *in* the castle?

Definitely on for this next year!

Tallon

It's way too scary *in* the castle :eek:

There will be room in the castle and the first time we went down everyone stayed in the morning room on the floor and any couches that were there.

- The problem with staying inside is it's colder as the castle keeps in the cold even when it's hot outside.
- It's cramped with the number of people we have
- People snore LOUD!
- Further away from the BBQ and camp fire.
- People seem happier with it.
- Castle owners are happier the less people that are walking around at strange hours of the night.

Sebzy

Would anyone like to offer me a lift from the city center sat morning. Please

SinisterDexter

I will.

Leaving from Drumcondra (Croke Park) heading in that direction (towards Four Courts or Busarus) your pick!

Ok thanks for letting me know. Maybe next year.
No go no fee. Hey but if you still do want to make a donation to the restoration of the castle please do by contacting them directly.

All info on the cost is in the original post 35e for the weekend. Please make sure you've read everything in the first post please.

Bring stuff and if you want to chip in we will do a run to the local lidl/tesco

The group buy seems to work best.

Stupid question......:D

WheresMyCamera?

I'm thinking of heading down to this if there's room. Only problem is I wouldn't be able to get down til about 9pm or so. (Working Saturday) Any room left and would that time be an issue?

Kazujo

Work finally confirmed my time off so definitely heading down

I have a spare tent and single airbed if anyone needs them.

Single airbed please!

Many Thanks!

sineadw

I don't at all, but its an odd place that your mind does odd things in. Especially when you've got a load of photographers scaring the crap out of each other for the laugh.

Hi WheresMyCamera?
I had to get the final list to the castle a few days ago so sorry I can add any more people now. Next year perhaps.

I could do with the tent if it'll hold two people. - Not required now, just bought one!

Bought me own tent this time. So won't take up your offer this year.

Tallon

I can't stay so I will be heading off at some stage in the evening

Anyone need a lift from the Kildare direction?

Tiriel

Rain rain go away!!!

Just in case anyone is stuck for a lift - I have room in my car for 1.. from Dublin (Heuston area).

Cabaal

Doh, forgot to clear memory cards and charge batterys until just now...oh well

kensutz

I may have to withdraw after a family incident needs me at home. If I get a chance to get up I'll come along.

sNarah

Camping gear packed.
4 camera's packed + 1 charging, fillums ready.
Lack of beer needs to be sorted in the morning...
Book for Cabaal: check

Just realized last year was the FIRST time I ever met all you Boards guys (minus Darren), feels like I've know you all longer though... and I was *so* nervous on the way up :P

Sebzy

Ah should be sleeping but as usual things need to be done and forms filled in etc.... etc....
Right so off to be bed and see you all in the morning.

Tallon

I'm still awake too.... Excitement plus minecraft :pac:
