Dear all
There's a Uni car park plus street parking on Parkside. I'll enquire about parking - there's a pass for one car I have, so perhaps a car share for those needing to drive might work.
The walk is through the underpass by the old toy museum onto Short Street, and it's right there on the corner.
I'll have some interesting things for you to look at by then.
1. New Arthur Cooper plates
2. PWL Thompson negatives
3. Richard Sadler cathedral negative collection
4. Wingrave plates
Hopefully you'll all enjoy it.

Looks like you will be having a good turn out this month, hope you all have very enjoyable time. Just thought I would remind you that in index of the book "Coventry Past and Passing" Walter Wingrave has made comments on his plates in the book. It will be fascinating for you to look at the originals. Enjoy. |

Perhaps if you had one sometime outside the city. I don't drive now and I am afraid parking in a city is too much of a faff now for us OAPs. I will be with you in spirit though. |

I'm sure we could arrange that Anne. This next one is only because we could take-up Ben's kind invitation after. I'm always willing to help with lifts if anyone ever needs one as well |

Dear all
I hope you are well.
I'm in negotiations with the Coventry Archive over the Wingrave plates. Dippy, plus heating failure, means that the archive isn't that accessible.
I'll keep you updated. Ben

Dear all
Wingrave update - I have not got the plates. We're going to scan them at the Herbert in May. I do have prints from former Telegraph photographer Chris Ross - these were taken from copies at the Telegraph - and lots of Cooper too, but sorry for the news.
See you all Saturday.

Since this will be my first breakfast bash, if you see a white bearded old guy, looking bemused, wandering though the bar asking "is this Timothy Whites?" it will probably be me.

I'm glad that I wasn't footing the bill for this lot!
It was so exciting!
Not only gratitude to the bill payers, but also to our star server Bev. Sorted the orders out as always.
It was lovely meeting new faces too. A digital administrator, organist & Kv8 memories.
