Hi there, I'd be on for some evening meetings next year as we shall be on Flexi time then which will allow me out.
PS I intend to go back to Delphi on Friday about noon to finish my painting if any one would like to join me! Approach from aasleigh falls, drive along north side of killary harbour to a little inlet where the bundoraghagh [speling???) river flows into the sea, I ll be near the bridge with a little white van car.

Hi.

I only managed to make Kinvara this year, as the other dates didn`t suit. Its a great day out though. Plenty of creativity, a great opportunity to meet like-minded people who are all willing to share ideas and experiences. There is certainly no sense of competition, regardless of the experience levels of everyone I have met. I intend to do my best to make it to more events next year. For those who haven`t made it to any of the days out yet, give it a go. It`s most enjoyable :-)

I have missed all of the paint outs this year......many reasons.

An evening paint out might get the adrenalin going for some people. On the few that I have been on I felt we were packing up when the light was getting interesting Would a 4.30-9pm session work I wonder.I appreciate the planning both John and Noelle do......and yes I will make Westport again this year.

Hi Noelle I'm so sorry you were alone today - and such a lovely day.  I just couldn't make it, as I texted you, but I share your frustration with the lack of attendance by the vast majority of the 'members' of the group.  I'll put my thinking cap on, but really the people who should be suggesting changes are those who don't show up.  Can we hear suggestions for next year from from any of you?

Pleine Eire West has 47 members,42 of whom would seem to be dormant?
I painted alone today in 23degrees of autumnal glory. it would have been lovely if a few more had come along. The Roundstone meetings each had an attendance of about 4 members, and the Cong meeting had about 5. Any suggestions as to how we could make Pleine Eire West a more active group? Any new locations suggested?
there is one more paint out, Westport Town the first Saturday in October. We had a very good local turn out last year, some professional painters even, and a few from the Dublin Sketching Club attended. Drinks in the pub ensued.
Hope you can make it!

Sorry Noelle, I can't make it.  Hopefully  next year will be less hectic, or I will end up the home for the lost and bewildered!  Have a great day.

Best wishes  Helen
