Another pointless thread

Today has been a good day. Digging around in the back of a cupboard I discovered 4 lenses that have lurked in there for at least 20 years, don't get too excited. 3x 50mm 1.7s and a 135/.3.5 I think someone has hidden them. And they all work. Something to alleviate the boredom. Whoopie

Digging around in the back of a cupboard I discovered 4 lenses that have lurked in there for at least 20 years I once found a large jar of pickling vinegar at the back of a shelf which had been there so long that the lid had corroded away :shock:. Hopefully that hasn't happened to your lenses. St...

[quote:3496ace15f="Lubbyman"] A friend of mine found an unopened box of 1950s washing powder in the back of a cupboard which he then sold for a reasonable chunk of cash. I think it was bought by someone who does props for films / TV shows. Do you think they would be interested in an old jar of...

M50m 1:1.7 lenses were gold dust 10 years ago.. ...now they're only worth a fraction of the cost back then. Just saying. Listening to local radio and it seems west, West Yokshire is having a bad day with the rivers rising fast.

[quote:3496ace15f="Lubbyman"]Have you eaten the beans? Steve Nah! they went straight in the bin. But 2015 was only the 'best before' date. Put them with something with a lot of flavour and you'd not have known the difference... Possibly :mrgreen:. Now, if the can had started bulging, that wou...

Another dream for the tin labelled 'Unknown Stuff'. That tin is becoming full: I need a larger one. Last night I dreamt that I woke up to a beautiful sunny morning. Warm sunlight glistening on the shiny white rocket with bright red lettering stood on the launchpad outside of the bedroom window. ...

The result of an hour sitting in the garden and looking for birds was two wood pigeons, a blackbird, a robin and a probable house sparrow. At least it was done yesterday in dry weather. Sit outside for an hour today and you'd dissolve. A couple of positives, though. The robin sang quietly but be...

First time since mid December that we've been out for a cycle ride today. Warm(er) weather and a muddy canal bank made for a nice 22 mile ride to Leeds and back. Shower time now then a snooze after all the fresh air..:D

Hey, I remember those trains :D!! Pure nostalgia! We used to live on the other side of the harbour in the days when trains still ran along the road fairly regularly. Driving beside a train was an interesting experience (so my wife says, never had the pleasure myself). And the No Parking and Keep Cle...
