Hi, been 3 years since ive been on here!!!! :eek:

Various things kept me off, my car has been totally transformed now since the supercharging so i don't visit the car forums much now, I dont have time to do many forums tbh, here she is now, not bad for a 12 year old car eh? :)

The pictures are from the photo shoot, that Performance BMW magazine took, the car had a 5 page feature.

The main reason for not being online as much though is my Crohn's disease which I was diagnosed with in 2012 has got considerably worse over the years, I'm looking at having bits removed out me now as all the drugs I've tried have failed :( so not been in the best of moods for a while now, due to the immune suppressing drugs I've had to put up with constant little illnesses and even pneumonia, I was on an antibiotic drip on a critical care unit last Feb!

On a photography front I passed my DPAGB distinction in 2013 then 2 weeks ago achieved my MPAGB (master) which is the highest award in Amateur photography in the UK, there are only 200+ with the award so I'm quite proud to have achieved it. Next I am going for a MFIAP award, which they say should be regarded as an equilibrate to a doctorate.

Due to my health I havent been out every week like I would like but i have still managed to do stuff, including going to the Lofoten Islands in Norway on a 10 day toggin' trip, absolutely stunning and have loads of photos to show you.

My website was hacked recently so I spent some time changing the theme and have a site now I'm really proud of you can see it here www.85mm.co.uk

Ill put some threads up shortly, hopefully I dont overload you all, cheers.

Stunning work on your site. Sorry to hear about your health issues, but hopefully you're on a positive shift.
Very jealous of the Lofoten work, I'm looking at making a trip in 2017
Good to see you back, and look forward to seeing your work on here!
 
Thanks Matty, you will love it if you go, we based ourselves in Leknes, good place to explore the whole Islands from.
 
I remember your avatar, welcome back :)

Great website and the images are stunning, totally top drawer, can't wait to see your Norway trip.
 
Thanks, Ive put one in the landscape section already :)

Have you heard of the new meme of the 'mike drop'? that picture is that.

Sorry to hear about your illness by the way, hope the prognosis is good (I know little of Crones) and it certainly hasn't stopped you taking some amazing photos.
 
Welcome back, nice wheels (y)
 
Love the colour-lovely old beamer too, I'm guessing the number plate is a show plate??? ( as legally there should be a gap between the 8 and the D) ANPR recognition etc
