I could do. I don't live far away and I've haven't shot much recently.

Westonbirt is only 90mins along the M4 for me so I'll be interested in meeting up... can I suggest a weekday if possible though as it can get incredibly busy at the weekends

Another option is to go on a Saturday morning in mid October but VERY early! Apparently if you get there early enough there is no-one to take money for the car park :D

The Forestry Commission's web site give's out advisories as to when the colour is at it's best. and it is true if we arrive early enough you can park and get in for free :D
Mid-week or sat morning ok with, me as long as it's not half term :no:
