Ditto Rob. Yesterday. Except that we have a good friend who is a retired hairdresser and lives two doors away. She came and did Sheilas hair first then set about my hair and she also does my beard. As I'm bald on top and it was getting long at the back I was beginning to look like Bill Baily. Ha Ha. I nearly fell over when I stood up I was so light headed.
CHEERS Vic.

Born again biker with lots of Pentax bits. Every day I wake up is a good day. I'm so old I don't even buy green bananas.

I haven't been to the barbers for over 12 months and I have no intention of doing so now. The aim is to emulate the logo of the Quaker gentleman on packets of Quaker oats. It's white and it's thick enough so I shall enjoy a second 'teenage' rebellion.

So you missed the chance to have a second 'teenage' rebellion after Lockdown 1? It's white and it's thick enough so I shall enjoy a second 'teenage' rebellion.

Thank goodness for my long-standing lady hairdresser getting rid of my unruly "Boris thatch" yesterday - I can now see my ears, and not have the hair-ends tickle them very uncomfortably.
K-3 II, K-3 and a K-70 from SRS (having now relegated the K-30 /"K-50" to a backup body), & some Sigma and Pentax lenses (and a lot of old 35mm gear!)

Random things from a random day off.
1. Have cheese on toast for lunch.
2. Make ginger biscuits using a recipe from my Grandmother.
3. Go for a walk in the glorious spring sunshine. Enjoy the sight and sounds of spring so much I forget to take any pictures.

A collection of manual primes to keep me in touch with the pleasures of doing it old-school.

This isn't exactly a 'pointless' comment but I've just copied all my files from SD to PC (and wipe) for the first time in over a year.
Maybe it's time to start looking past Covid.

PPG entries.

And now for something really pointless - BINDWEED. No matter how much you remove, there's always more in the ground.

Pesky stuff. You can't help but leave tiny bits of it - and that's all it needs.

Just back from 32 days camping/ working on the decking at Honesty's place.
Weather was, er, interesting for camping but the decking id now finished.

Weathers warm down south, so heading off in about an hour. Time to play hide & seek with the lorry drivers around the M25.
Too far from a shore.

Those lorry drivers must be pretty good if they can hide on the M25.
Drive safely and always maintain social distancing from every other vehicle.

Daft as schedule. Heading to Fen End tomorrow to collect some articulate tubing and two shockers, then back to lorry dodging on my way to Essex. Need to see if I can spot any photo ops. Apologies if my carbon footprint is off the scale as I'll be burning around 100lts diesel.
Then repeat next week via Lincolnshire, Norfolk & Suffolk.
