Have fun HG. Currently having a pint in Tobermory (the town, not the womble).

Yesterday was blazing sunshine. Today was mostly dreich. Went to Iona today. That was pretty much it.

Well you sure travelled the island if you are now in Tobermory and you visited Iona today too.

Hope to get back there next year and maybe a week on Skye as well. Fond memory of Tobermory was finding the strawberry sponge in the bakers. Sat outside by the harbour in the rain stuffing it down the pudding chute.
Enjoy life

There seems to have been a distinct lack of pointlessness lately.

Some of the stalwarts (you know who you are) have not contributed for some time yet I have not seen any holidays booked out.

Excuses and apologies by reply.

We are visiting Edinburgh Zoo 26th September. Any one know if there are any restrictions on photography. I wouldn't be using a flash.

Nope. Not been in for a couple of years but last time I was there I had no problems. Apart from the non-existent animals!

I think they run photography competitions from time to time.

Last time I was there was in the mid fifties ( the years not my age) and I have a vague memory of being disappointed Mrs Snap has never been and hopes to see the pandas. Fingers crossed for that

I've just noticed I've had over 1500 posts and I always thought I was a person of few words

Yes, thanks Barrie. I didn't, but a friend of Mrs Snap had told her so we booked it. The site also gave a list of reasons why she may not see them too, but as I said Fingers Crossed

OK, I'm in a pedantic mood.

https://www.pentaxuser.com/article/vegetable-photography-tips-586.

Tomatoes are not vegetables. Nor are mushrooms. Nor are olives. Nor are marrows/squash.

Therefore this article really ought to be 'Fruit, Vegetable and Fungi photography tips'. Yes, I really am that bored right now.

Should you not be swatting for the CBT.

I don't think you can swat for a CBT?

I now know where the clutch, gears and brakes are (all in the wrong place, obviously). Trying to work out where to put my coffee cup.
