Working for yourself has many advantages, but taking long Summer breaks is not one of them. While the break is always welcome. it costs you a shedload in lost revenue, and creates so much of a backlog of work when you return, that you need another holiday to get over it. This years break was no exception and will a computer failure on the day I official got back to work, it’s taken three…

    Well it’s been a pretty awful long Bank Holiday from the weather point of view. Apart from a  few hours of sunshine yesterday there has been solid cloud over the Southwest.

I loaded a roll of FP4 and we had…

Really looking forward to giving the SX70 Sonar a proper workout and hope I might actually learn something.  The good news is that the Button which appears to have died, appears to be working again, so I’m risking a pack of PX100 and see how she goes. Just hope the M25 doesn’t go tits…

   Six packs of IP film turned up from the Netherlands this morning. All in preparation for next weeks Pola Flickr trundle in the Big Smoke. Trying not to blow more than a couple of packs between now and then otherwise I’ll look like a tit with no film.

I’m desperately trying to use the rest of this pack of PX600, so I can try IP’s new PX70 cool. Two more piccys and I’m away.
