... flashgun diffuser arrived from China today (!) - an (indoor) family 50th birthday in Belper (OK Milford) this weekend will be not only the diffuser's first outing, but the new flashgun as well ! Another year's camera tackle insurance also confirmed today - for those interested (it's VERY reasonable) I offer up ..

Now just awaiting the "Conference Snapper Licence" renewal notice ... (oh - and the offer of a Canon 85mm f1.8 for under £200 !!!!!!!!!!)
Now ... do I start flogging my pictures (proceeds to Mossley AFC maybe ?) or should I continue as the "socialist freelancer" in this "fascist stronghold" of Tameside ??

Tomorrow night sees a trip to the Royal Exchange to see a "newbie" from Edna O'Brien called "Haunted" - the phrase "menage a trois" has been bandied about, but I'm sure that vests will remain firmly "on" (you never know ... babycam will be on standby just in case !!!). With it being the re-arranged Mossley AFC Presentation Night, my absence @ Seel Park may be seen by some as "failure"/"non supporter" type of stuff .....
And finally as part of the "wot you listening to" style of stuff - it's Alan Stivell .. courtesy of Spotify ...

You say you were at a family's 50th, do they know how to use a computer?
No ... I said I was "going" to a family's 50th this weekend .. and yes they do. Please concentrate ...
(As do my parents - aged 80 and 73 - who each have their own laptops with wireless internet)
The phrase is "silver surfers" - and - no disrespect to the over-50s (I'd be 'dissing myself' for starters !)- it ain't rocket science.... embrace !
