That is great news Kris! Is this the permanent trip or is she still awaiting that visa? Either way I can understand blue is the last thing you'll be feeling .

Blue Monday is all down to advertising really - link . But it gives the rags something to write about.

Blue Monday today. The most depressing day of the year apparently.

True Katie. I'm still envious of you and where you live. I'll look forward to some great seascapes then shall I? Or will that be skyscapes as you get blown over?

You of course are more than happy to provide these PUF badges for the fee quoted I assume Ken .

I'd have thought it was good practice for the guide dog, learning to ignore all those dogs and people. I walk in the woods with a blind girl sometimes. Her dog is amazing. Absolute concentration and ignores every distraction, every dog, until the harness comes off and she is given permission to play. She then resorts to normal Lab behaviour and is a total doozy for 45 minutes while we walk around, but as soon as time is up she is back at her mistresses side, harness is put on and she is back to work.

I of course will recognise you and TT in the car park -a Scotsman in a Tam O'Shanter standing by Arnie should be pretty easy to identify I'd have thought - although being Glasgow maybe you all wear Tam O'Shanters .

That's me . I'll be waddling along .

I've been on forum walks with dog owners before now where we didn't know one another, and were surrounded by other dog owners with their pooches yet we managed to identify each other reasonably easy.

I doubt it will be very busy then - unless Scotland turns on the lights and the heat that day of course .

I know I'm probably being thick but what is the problem with sidecar files?

I haven't logged any photos recently but when I do the GPS data goes into a sidecar file (at least for PEFs it does - no idea with DNGs).

Welcome Katie!

If I lived where you do I'd have my camera with me every day, but also make trips out to the surrounding countryside/coast for photography.

It helps to either have a partner who is also a photographer, or one who has an equally expensive/time consuming hobby so you can do your own thing.

My husband is a guitarist with a bad case of GBA .

The ferry is booked so whether the meet goes ahead or not we have a week in the UK in April .

Oh to be in England (and Scotland) now that April's there .

I had a set of Soligor AF tubes that were definitely AF with screw drive lenses.
I didn't get on with them though and sold them - at a profit what's more .
