So, have you gone for implants and it leaves as a 31 and returns as a 38 !
Implant would be good - of IQ, that is. Never been truly happy with it since I got it. Tried it on a K7, K10 and now the Kx. De-centred optics has been suggested, alternatively they say they have had one here recently that had defective coatings on some elements that were replaced in Japan. I'm keenly interested in the outcome!

However things are due to cool down and get a lot wetter - just in time for the biggest jumble sale in the Netherlands. Koninginnedag on Friday when one fifth of all Dutch people will be trying to sell their old stuff to the rest.
I can't face it myself.

Back from the chaos of Heathrow only to be confronted with a main station in Helsinki where "faulty" points derailed half a commuter train, taking the main power line for 6 platforms with it. Lovely.
Took 45 min extra to get in and another 30 extra to get out yesterday, so I'm working from home today.
I also have to clear the balconies by Monday. Bah!

Typical Dutch though that when it falls on a Sunday it is moved to the Saturday - anywhere else would move it to the Monday .
Next year is a disaster - Christmas, New Year and Koninginnedag all in the weekend . Everywhere else will have compensating days off, but not here, which given we only get 7 days public holidays is a scandal imho.

Thursday evening here. Bottle(s) are empty, kids are in bed. What the heck is a 31? Friday tomorrow. Must take some pics for the gallery on the weekend. maybe a woodshed, or a bottle of gin. Need more red wine.... and a DA 50-135, and maybe a 400mm fast mo'fo. Too many brain cells wasted. Goodnight all. Is it all ash cloud, or has the flying midget used the wardrobe.............

We had the use of a gas version - very nice units actually. Trouble is, they cost an arm and a leg over here (even the smaller ones)...

I have an Outback barbecue! Which I'm guessing isn't from anywhere remotely near Australia. Can highly recommend it though, if you aren't one of those philistines that use gas on your barbies

The 31 is off to Japan for a spot of surgery...back in 6 weeks. Waved it goodbye yesterday.
So, have you gone for implants and it leaves as a 31 and returns as a 38 !
