Ok big girl boots need to go on! Thanks.

Apple care - 20 minutes and 3 bots before I arrived with a human - tells me my software needs an update as there was no work around found for the clock defaulting to 1976. It’s been doing this for sometime and the person I spoke to about it last year did not tell me this… it seems like a sane...

Result! I am pondering getting an OM camera. I did have an Olympus set up once before - the body became bigger and I decided to trade it in. I was with a friend at the Photoshow who bought one, downsizing from a Sony set up... I made the mistake of picking up the OM5ii.... can't seem to...

Is this the lens that you mentioned might lead to divorce?!!!

It was a lot smaller... barely filled the hall and there was a black curtain across one end making it smaller. 3LT, Just, Camera world were 3 more I noticed missing this time. My friend did get a good deal on an OM5ii with a kit lens and then, unexpectedly, a free lens and half price extra...

If you have the budget and it won't deplete your funds to the point where an emergency fund/ unexpected drama arrives and you will be in a difficult / hard/ impossible place, then why not? If it means the opposite, step away from the keyboard....

At further risk of annoying you, there is an independent repair place in Wooton under Edge: Don Clark. Might be worth a chat. They are very fair and do what they say they will do when they say they will do it.

Good morning. I hope all is safe and well with you in the aftermath / ongoing effects of the storm. Are there any New year confessions out there?

When I know I am going in to very cold, I put my camera in its bag the night before or that morning if not going out and then put it in a cold place in the house. If it is really cold (and what you describe is something much more than I have experienced) I will start in the understairs cupboard...

We went to see the Lee Miller exhibition earlier this month. She was amazing; it was excellent.

You could consider it saving a lot of money in not buying very recent mirrorless stuff.
