Hi Stuey

Not sure about the satnav front as my Tomtom is well on the blink and I refuse to deal with them. Might have to be the good old paper satnav from OS.

Well, in 2 Saturdays Mrs Cedric and I will be off to Anglesea. Lenses are out of the dishwasher and cooling on the drainer. New waterproof trousers have arrived now for the crunch question. Where are the distilleries in that part of the world?

Getting in the holiday mood, just over a week to go now. Must clean the dishwasher prior to cleaning my lenses and bodies. Looks like Summer is here now, glad I bought some new waterproofs.

Surely most delivery drivers just lob parcels over the fence - well we have seen F.D.X lob them and I`m still waiting on a delivey of a camera being delivered by Y.D.L

Crikey Stan, that`s enough for any man to cope with. Glad you have been discharged, let`s hope you have the all clear. Enjoy the weekend.

I wish Pentax were still in bed with Samsung. Reason, I use a NX300 alongside either a K30 or K3 and the IQ of all three leaves me happy. Pentax are moving on now thanks to Ricoh but I suppose they have a lot to catch up on outside the DSLR market it`s important to me to be able to make intant connections and Pentax aren`t there. Yes, the GR is good but it`s years behind. I also use a waterproof compact when the weather is really bad or for rock pooling/canoeing. For day to day carrying about at work its a Pentax X5 which sits besides me on the passenger seat.

Woohoo! Friday eveening again. Mr Tesco had Storm on offer and Mrs Cedric didn`t say no.

Thanks HG, happy Easter too from the far East (Suffolk coast ish). Beer day, just discovered Talisker Storm thanks to my friends at work. Wonder if it`s possible to blow a cream egg and inject whisky!!!! Looking forward to eggday after two more sleeps.

All good here in the ar East HG. Sun shining birds singing and the Enfild fired up on the first try. Not used since last August. Got some cracking pix of a Bittern. Twins just dropped off home and the dodgy cistern fixed. Soon be time to open a Badger.

Farewell Clarissa Dickson Wright, controversial yes. outspoken yes, Spilling The Beans - read it.
