Of course this number was arrived at by people, at least 50% of whom would be bad at maths. So they would have the numbers wrong! Now my head hurts.
I think it's called Thicklexia as opposed to Dyslexia which is something else

Aren't you supposed to let it grow first!
All the yellow footprints where I was stamping around taking snaps of a frozen camellia had turned green again and I could definitely see at least an inch of new growth, and God has decided to water it today so it looks super (compared to what it was)

I gave the lawn it's first mow this afternoon. Also did a little painting in preparation for the new front and back doors being fitted. Three weeks then off to Scotland for a few days. Hope it's fine for the wedding.

Had to nudge SRS ref postage and another time on package discount. instant refund but it really shouldn't have happened. Will get some one to telephone my order for me in future.

I had the same pair of lenses at that time. If you gave them away, you over-priced them. They were truly awful!

I understand Sigma produces better lenses nowadays.

But when I look at the snaps I took then, without my glasses, on they don't look too bad and the images still invoke memories of happy holidays. IIRC I mainly took (well that is what I got back from pronto print et al) slides and am just starting to go through them now, must try the projector as well
