Thanks for the synopsis Frank! For a variety of reasons having to do with the LAN I've set up at home, the message you replied to actually sat in my computer for a week, germinating or whatever, before suddenly and with no warning springing forth last night. Meanwhile (a) I have been to Ottawa for

Lovely! You did solve one part of a mysteriousness I've tried to figure out for a time. I have a collector friend in Nottingham and we swap photos and camera tales from time to time. Last time I sent her a photo of a boat coming down under the bridge...very likely the very same Camden Lock

Really sorry I missed it guys. Glad to see Bob made it, makes me feel slightly less guilty for cancelling. At least a few of us turned up to look after Stan! Some great shots, but one question: What was that woman doing with the vaseline and apron?!? Was it some weird sexual practice, or was

Hi, I noticed Bob moved in pretty quickly though ;-) I've always been a sucker for the line it's all part of the post-colonial experience. I keep thinking about the guy with the rings in his face. I may go back again in the next couple of weeks with a 100mm macro lens and pocket full of £s
