Do not accept cheap, poorly made substitutes for the real thing. We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.
"And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is becoming the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird."--REVELATION 18:2

On my way into work yesterday I couldn't help but notice this little van as it rounded Trafalgar Square. It wasn't its retro charm, nor the bubble machine that initially drew my attention, it was the loud, pleasant tenor voice singing golden oldies which emanated from a P.A. system within the vehicle. You can't see it in the photo but there is a microphone stand mounted on the dashboard to enable "The Singing Handyman" to entertain as he drives. The bubble machine clinches the deal that the next leaky cistern that needs attention is going to be fixed by this wonderful man. It really cheered the day along.
Boring. It's a sunny Saturday afternoon and I'm sat in the studio. Just so much work to get done for HPatOotP. I have a load of lighting issues to sort out to get our character to work in the lighting that was shot on set and it's proving really hard. Having spent Friday being asked questions by all and sundry I didn't get as much done on my own shots as I should have and so here I am. Boo. I'm off out for drinks this evening to say good riddance to Clarenche who's off to California in a week to work at Pixar. What's that you say? Cheap accomodation if I ever make it to San Francisco? The thought had never crossed my mind...
Right, 198 frames to get sorted and then I can go to the pub. Come on Atrocity, you can do it. I could really use a Turbo boost of some sort to get this done quicker.
Use your wheels, it is what they are forGenius.
Small babies may be placed inside the special cocoons, which should be left if possible, in a shelter
Do not attempt to use your own limbs
If no wheels are available, metal, not organic, limbs should be employed whenever practical.....
I thought I'd be able to resist, but I love my M6 and I think I may well start saving for this bad boy now. Shame on me. I've used the M6 for ten years and it's by far the best camera I've ever used, it just wasn't digital and after Agfa went bust, depriving me of all my favourite chemistry I am reluctant to go back to film and so a digital camera with quality and feel of my old M6 would be my ultimate digital camera dream. Apparently, it's just happened. Expensively, but it has happened.
Hmmm, time to start putting more pennies into the piggy bank.
