One of my spawn has asked me to update my Amazon wish list. Clearly stuck for a Father's Day present. Unfortunately, although each costs about £100,000 to raise, they baulk at spending a tenner! So what can I put on there? The original Batmobile still hasn't arrived despite being on the list for about a decade!
What about ointment for the rash

Sometimes I'm serious and sometimes not, but I consider sarcasm an artform. Which is it today?

Not expecting anything here. I'll be working anyway so a late evening beer is all I'll get...

We drove back from Lincolnshire yesterday, spent a few hours catching up on everyday life and then were off to Macclesfield for Sue's cousin's 50 year birthday celebrations. Back home 1.30am-ish this morning, post the picture on EPZ, check messages and to bed...

So actually quite glad that a proposed trip to Eden Camp near Pickering was cancelled for today....some picture processing later instead I think.
Best regards, John

I think Eden Camp is OK if you like a lot of reading. My "best" picture from there is a swallow (I think) sitting on a model plane suspended from the ceiling in the cafe. The stew and dumplings were very nice

PENTAX!!?

Not in Canonikorica surely!

Been out on both the mopeds today, yes I now have 2, and no I wasn't riding them at the same time Greynolds...

Just helped Mrs Hg finish a 10 litre box of wine, looks like a trip to the cellar in the morning.

Photos will be coming in due course

Had a ball - bought 2 X Lexar 16GB 400 speed cards , 1X Lexar 16GB 600 speed , a 16GB Toshiba FlashAir Card AND a new camera bag - the LowePro Urban Reporter 150 !

Didn't actually break the bank either - came to $171.25 including taxes and stuff !

Work out what that is

Me happy bunny

OH got some freebies as well including a $15 Lens cloth [ a BIG one ] and a Ricoh little day sack thingy and a wee bottle opener . Entered a draw for a Pentax waterproof camera as well.

You should see what Photomonk came away with - including a $25 gift card from Adorama when he told them that the last lens for the Nikon Camera he swapped for the new NX30 in Times Square on Wednesday. He was buying Lexar Cards as well - worked out that they cost us 50cents a GB !!

It was a fabulous day - I just wish that we had things like this in UK - this was a great day promoting Adorama and it worked as there were fun activities for Children.

I got the very last 16GB Lexar card - none left in the warehouse !

Adorama say that it really took off this year

It was a long full day , but real fun

Glad you had a good day TT and I trust you'll be making good use of all that available new memory.

I don't drink while on the mopeds G, I drink afterwards as I find the wine hard to dribble accurately into a full face helmet!!

And I'm off to collect another moped tomorrow!

Of course, with TT being a cybernetic life force she will plug the memory into herself instead of the camera and be able to remember this entire thread word for word!

Anyone know when summer is due to begin?
