Negs Soaked Again

Found a box in the shed containing some old photos, negs and slides half filled with water again. I recovered these photos once before when they got soaked in the shed at Weedon House. Not greatly important photos, they’re probably saved digitally elsewhere – but I still don’t like loosing these originals.

I Love Marmite

A great marketing ploy – a present from my beloved. But I love her more than my Marmite – honest!

(For the record I bought her conventional flowers – bargain at 30% off at Lidl’s – who says romance is dead).
