Yes
So, it's Friday, TGIF. Been a chaotic week.. but a good one.
So, whats everyone doing then ?

I'll start, want to go back to Southerndown again, time permitting to take some nice coastal landscape shots, hopefully with some new ND grads that I can pick up tomorrow from the PO ;)
I guess it kind of depends of the weather, but I hope it's blowing a gale, so I get some nice shots.

I know not everyones cup of tea, but it's a big football weekend !!
Oh and I'm sure a few beers tonight !
Thank heavens there is no cricket to endure :)

Whatever you do, have a great one.

Cheers,
Neil :thumbs:
 
not much, been dog sick today so will be recovering.

Got my nifty from Kerso today though, so might have a play!
 
the camera is clean, got a nice clean up when i sent it off for repair, not sure about the rest of the lenses though
 
Hmmmm well I am off to work shortly so will be sleeping all day tomorrow, and then working again tomorrow night. So will be going to bed on sunday morning for a little bit as well, before going shopping for a new sofa, will take the camera with me just incase and then i can see what i am getting when i go looking for a new carpet as well.
 
Got my 300mm, 1.4x and ST-E2 from Kerso today so will be trying my BEST to get out and use em :)
 
dinner with a couple friends tonight.

sunday evening dinner at a friend's place and to the cinema for a movie.

Not sure what I'll do in between. :)
 
Am desperate to get out and use my camera.... but I'm on-call tonight, and working all weekend with another on-call thrown in on Sunday :( Guess I'll just have to wait for next weekend.
 
Supposed to be decorating my daughter's bedroom this weekend. I've even said she can choose the decor :cuckoo:
 
Work, bah ! :bang:
Hopefully get out on m/bike for a ride (but weather looks no good :'( ).
Then more work. :thumbsdown:
Might have a look at the CS2 book I got for Christmas and try a few things out.
 
Sat, quick visit to my mams, watch a naff movie based on the famous Studio 54, for research purposes.
Sun, could spend the day decorating the hall but if Im going to try & do the 'pic every 5 mins' thing, it might be a bit messy. If weather is decent (who am I kidding) head out to the countryside and see what I can snap!

Nightmare Mini - Days off in the week ?
Click to expand...

I have Thursday off - but I really need to go to the college library and research some stuff for my course as I'm starting to fall behind. Looks like it could be an all day job in the library too as I have to research famous landscape photographers and find inspiration (haha) for my landscape shoot. I then have to sort out a coursework diary which will take up the rest of the day, followed by college in the evening :(
Hopefully it will be lovely next weekend, then I can spend the full weekend with my camera.

Amen to that :) Look no further than Ansel :)
 
Going out for dinner tongiht - we might as well as we still don't have a working oven/hob. (It's a long story!) Tomorrow it's into town in the monring for the monthly farmers market, and then hopefully a trip to Cameraworld at Chelmsford in the afternoon to see if they've got a Sigma 24-70mm f2.8 in stock.

If the weather is good I've told Ben that Sunday is camera-day! :D
 
24-70??????? Traitor :'(
 
playing badminton on saturday with friends and then going for drinks and on sunday afternoon going to a place called Marbury in cheshire for a walk with the kids with camera.
 
Hopefully feeling better than I do now. Sat = work, Sun
= playing with my new nifty fifty and hopefully doing that all day photography thing.
 
I am doing something very exciting but telling you nothing until after the weekend..:nuts:
 
Playing rugby tomorrow against Southwold, for Felixstowe. Going to be a tough one. Recovering Saturday evening and all day Sunday. Will try and get out with the camera, if the missus doesnt lose her temper ;).

King.
 
Saturday i'll be spending the morning tinkering with spanners and oily bits in the morning, i was supposed to be taking the snert for a haircut in the afternoon, but the groomer has cried off so thats monday nights job now.

Sunday......i'll play that by ear really, I have two doors to trim and rehang after a carpet change, I need to touch up the gloss work too to cover some speaker cables i've installed so I could wall mount the new speakers for the AV set up.
 
I was thinking of heading to tropical worldwith the kid and the camera. See what I can do with the flora and butterflies. Hopefully come up with something decent and get Keegan out of the house.
 
*shudders* I hate butterflies :(

Good luck with the move Marcel :)
 
Saturday we (Wife, 2kids and I) are off to CenterParks for the day :woot:
We got a day pass as part of a "get fit" sponsorship event. Had to rais a min of £20 sponsorship and cycle 10 miles.... not very difficult at all... got the wife to do it :D

Sunday I'm building a coldframe to aid in veggie propagation. Have said that the kids kan help :baby: :cuckoo: :bonk:
Still It'll be fun.

Monday I'm hoping that Kerso pops my new 17-55 f2.8 IS EFS :nuts: in the post.
:canon:

See ya.
 
Saturday im doing a few more photos for a friends website and in the evening off to a house warming party :D
Sunday long lie in and then im back to work :(
 
tonight ive stripped half a wall of wallpaper and im just about to jump into the shower, currently listening to my sisters bands ep, its pretty good.
possibly going out for a beer or 2 with one of my mates

tomorrow ill be tripping it to B+Q and then sanding down some walls, clearing a room and tidying my bedroom as suzie is coming up and my room is awash with filing, clean clothes and travel gear from work.
