Hi,

Have been checking travel etc, looks like Wednesday 19th July is the best date.
Perhaps meet in Palm Bay/Walpole bay around 10:00-10:30am?

There's roadworks closing A229/Bluebell hill on 17th/18th which will cause delays in the Medway towns and M2 (and my journey to work).

I've suggested two locations for this, Margate itself and round the headland to Walpole and Botany bay.

Low tide is 8:00and 20:00 and high tides 14:30/03:00. So if we want to try photos around the rockpools and the bathing pool of Walpole bay, perhaps we start here, have lunch at the Jet Ski world cafe and then go to Margate at high tide. Walpole bay, entrance road to park on the front (free) is

The cafe details, https://www.facebook.com/PalmBay.Kent/

Then into Margate. Car parking is a bit pricier. College square, Margate, is £1/hour. It is at CT91PR or what 3 words, ///middle.half.quit

My final idea, completely optional. Fish and chips by the sea?
Recently, Ossies in Tankerton, was voted one of the best in Kent (and it's on the way home).

Another one, I've used more often is Fish Inn 2 in Herne bay.

Open to ideas and we can set the pace/timings to suit us.
