It's 7am here, still dark and the leaves are being blown off the trees by an equinoxal gale. Autumn is here alright! It's terribly depressing, I've submitted to the fact that I will essentially be a weekend warrier as far as windsurfing goes because it's dark by 6 and that menas no apres work sailing.
I guess I should just wait for SAD to kick in........

other than macs, all our DVD players are kaput - so inevitably the question is....
Blu-ray or Hi-def?
I'm inclined towards blu-ray but is that purely the Apple connection? Which one will be the 21st Century Beta-max?
I'm on a diet
I went to bed at 20.55 this evening and it still felt 25 minutes too late
I'm planning a weekend in the NEW FOREST which in spite of being labelled "weekend of photography" is obstensibly a walking holiday.






I'm very old.

My 50mm 1.8f lens broke today - for some reason when taking it off the camera it imploded! I think the camera is okay but the lens is knackered.
Jedssops told me it was my fault and that I must have done it on purpose - twats
I'll never shop there again. I buy a large proportion of prints and accesories from Jessops and this just confirms their inept and casual attitude.
Being at work sucks when you have a new born. I'd give my eye teeth to retire.
You miss things, mundane unimportant things but things nonetheless that you'd like to see. Worse though is that you wind up on the nightshift even when you have work the next day. Helen has told me tyo nudge her so that i don't have to get up and yet I can't do it! I feel compelled to stay awake and help - only when I'm very drunk can I sleep through it - which explains the high rates of alcoholism amongst fathers!!

The midwife came round to weigh Henry, and he's up to 6lbs 7oz - an increase of 1lb 2oz on his birth weight! Hurrah!
This is great news as his clothes are no starting to fit, he is strong enogh to let us know when he's hungry and and he's now eating 120ml of milk at a time. It seems a far cry from two weeks ago when we were struggling to get a syringe of formula down his neck!!
