Daventry???

Looks like I'm going to be in Daventry for a couple of days at the end of the week. Anybody know if it's worth taking the camera for once the course has finnished. Been there a few times but never seems much to do, I'm determined to not sit in the bar all night!

Coventry is only 30 minutes away.Photo opportunities are the Cathedral (New & Old) & the Coventry Transport Museum,if you can make the opening hours (10 - 5) The worlds largest collection of British Road Transport & not fully appreciated even by the locals.

Hi Sworks

Well I don't event know where Daventry is so I did a quick search and came up with Canon's Ashby House (National Trust) so it may be worth a visit:

You never know?

Enjoy your few days. Do you know yet whether you can make the Scottish Meet on the 24th? Be great if you can.

Regards
