........and forgot to ask you Peter, what are you scanning the negs with or are these scanned prints?

Best regards

Not put out if Pentax don't go larger mirrorless. The Q's are still turning out acceptable results.

No New Years resolutions from me. I've seldom made any.

I missed your previous reply Peter, apologies.

We live in a society that is very different to that which most of us grew up in.

I for one am sure that some people in Whitehall are very well aware of what will be going on in tier 2 areas tonight.

Why didn't they close pubs with immediate effect in tier 2 areas as of 6pm? We can assume what the results of close proximity social mixing will result in, so can those in Whitehall.

I follow the UK Gov guidelines.

Too sharp Barrie.

They may be following the UK Gov approach Peter.

When told one set of requirements to follow, don't. Do something different.

"Pfizer warns there is NO proof its Covid jab works when doses are taken 12 weeks apart as UK regulator scraps 21-day rule in desperate attempt to get millions more vaccinated

Regulator now recommending jabs are given in two doses three months apart
Originally Pfizer and Oxford jabs intended to be injected in space of four weeks
Change in strategy is to cope with spiking Covid cases and hospitalisations"

Does the UK regulator know something Pfizer doesn't?

As tier 2 areas are going into tier 3 at midnight tonight, I wish you all a Happy New Year as you'll be celebrating in the pubs tonight as you cannot tomorrow. The point of putting you into tier 3, 24hrs early is, itself, pointless.

Just made a dash to Toolstation to get an item I need to finish a domestic job as I thought they would be closed tomorrow as we are going into tier 4 at midnight. Pointless worrying about the job getting finished since they are open tomorrow

Sound! So no change whatsoever to my schedules or activities.

Specials on tomorrow at the German duo outlets so will be getting in a few essential New Years fluids.

Ever thought about running for PM Kris?

Seasonally perfect scenes Peter. Staying in has not dulled your ability for turning out class images. Impressive, as always.

Stay safe Peter.

Best regards

and another +1 from me

A Merry Xmas to all here from a frozen but sunny North East.

A would appear that I'm to be a nice smelling, sock wearing, alcoholic, medium format macro picture taking individual for the next few weeks........
