By the way . . . . I'm an idiot I got overconfident yesterday, didn't use the crutch all day and I'm suffering today because of it.

Kinda wild here today, strong wind but dry.

We had a brief moment of sunshine earlier and Leo took full advantage of the warm sunlight streaming through the front door

Good morning Jeff

Did you have to get down to take the photo?

Another great shot, you never disappoint

Morning Phil.

Getting down was the easy part


When the time comes (and finances allow) my upgrade to the Canon mirrorless camera system will likely involve a camera body with an articulated screen!

Thank you Jeff, we were chatting about it yesterday when Jessica watched your latest Lady Emma videos. We fly to London on 29 June. The weather should be hot and sunny for our arrival. We will pencil in some dates to come to you Hopefully my friendly mechanic will have a nice car for us.

Enjoy the day

Understood Jeff, got that, thank you.

You have fabulous Canon lenses so it makes sense to stay with Canon and an articulated screen certainly is a lot easier for awkward shots.

I was thinking about getting a full frame Panasonic LUMIX mirrorless as they are great for video work, but expensive so might have to go used. I don’t smoke or drink and have no expensive vices, so maybe a treat, or wait for prices to come down second hand As you know, I use an Olympus mirrorless camera. The latest one was launched a year ago at £2000 and S/H same model can be picked up for around £700.

Morning all, It's a grey day with showers forecast, but at least the winds have died down. Time for a little bit of brekkie.

By that’s an old photograph Phil, I took some photos on that day then someone took my camera so I could join the gang.

I have some good news for you all, I got the call from the Dr on last Friday to go ahead and ask for my driving licence back and he offered to get a letter from DVLA to ask for his medical job with caring about me.
I need to go to our local Dr and get a medial examination and get my bus driving restarted, but in January I was given a the removal of a cataract on left eye.
There has been a lot of poor improvement in it, I have very blurred vision from it as it had been over 2 years than be seen to get the cataract remove, I have to put drops in eye 6 times a day and been told I’ve been sent to corea drs, as they might be able to improve eye sight,if not be prepared for a cornea transplant.
I can get licence back though within a week or two, but can’t go back to work unless eye has been to better sight .
