that sounds ok then, and what do you think of having an open meeting for anyone in the forum, if they want to come with family should be ok as they all can go to the national park etc, should be good family fun/holiday. as from what i understand the accommodation should not be much of a problem and should be for all budget type.

We Edmundians are as prolific as Patels :)

Nice to know you are another of the crew - Casual Shooter - a pretty senior one at that.

I'm a relatively recent product....or bi-product (However you view things)

Presently I have no photos of St.Edmunds in my folders.... and seeing older photographs are heartbreaking. The present St.Edmunds is down...really down with the residual muck. No more of the nostalgic old-world charm just a bunch of butt-ugly sarkari type RCC structures. The only surviving part of the old campus is the study hall/auditorium, dormitory(Now used as a charity school for underprivileged kids), and the brothers quarters...each being chipped away to oblivion.

All the fields have been fenced up and no garis are allowed inside the campus.

I may be dropping in there some time in the next few days...I'll photograph the desolation if i remember.

cc
