You should get that on a T-shirt. Or just repeat it on every page.

We've all heard someone at one time or another boasting, "I'm a better driver after a couple of pints".
Does this apply to photography as well. After several drinks I used to find the manual focus lenses stopped working correctly but the the young ladies certainly looked more attractive. Thankfully those days are but a faint memory

That sounds like a good plan for the next meet. We all take our cameras into Newcastle on a Friday night and keep up with the locals.

The winner is the one has a decent photograph by the end of the night. Failing that, having any equipment or money left will be the tiebreaker!

What a good idea, will I need to bring my own paracetamol or are they provided on the NHS in Newcastle?

I also like the T-shirt idea...

Don't you three realise that some people take their photography seriously here. They abstain from any substance likely to hinder their erstwhile efforts.









Not me I hasten to add

OK confession time.

I have never been drunk - not really drunk. Very occasionally very slightly tipsy, but nothing more than that. I don't even like feeling tipsy.

If I start to feel the affects of booze I stop drinking.

But I must admit to enjoying some of the best beers at the time of my youth, and they were brewed in God's own County.

Long live Masham, and the twin breweries. The ancient and venerable Theakstones and it's younger sibling Black Sheep.

All hail the wonder food, beer, Long live booze!!!

I can never ever remember getting drunk. I do remember being told the next day and recall how ill I felt until getting a top up

I enjoy a pint or a glass of wine or two too, but just don't drink a lot.

One reason is an alcoholic grandfather, and seeing the effects on one of my brothers of too much boozing. He stopped before he became an alcoholic, but it is there in the genes.

But in truth I just don't like the feeling.

I had a chemistry exam, and one birthday card (from an aunt) for my 21st. That was it. I had a terribly deprived youth
