Postman. Taken today in what would be called a blizzard down south, but here we call it winter and put on a cap.

That's some trolley! Are postmen down South have vans for that size load.

And you should see the hills they have to push them up! Vans are reserved for the second delivery of the day.

It's been like summer these last few days round these parts (Gloucester). I'm sure the snow is going to come, but it hasn't happened yet.

Remind me, what’s summer?

My postman was still wearing shorts yesterday and, yes, it was snowing at the time

 

[Rosedale]

Well, as you can see, we are completely snowed in here in South Hampshire:-

Things are so bad today that they have shut all the schools and playgroups so that the little ones don't die of hypothermia on the way to school in their mum's 4x4s
I can remember wading my way through snowdrifts for weeks on end in '63 and we only lost a few kids to frostbite and hypothermia

The devastation! Blown all the dog's fur off his middle!

I was living in in Southampton in ‘63 but my recollect is that there was hardly any snow there, but driving north to Loughborough and back in an unheated transit van was horrendous and the snow was piled up above vehicle height on many roads.

I lived in the North in those days - Surrey to be exact

Ah, thanks for that, maybe I’m not going senile then

A bit of a change now though:-

Taken with my "new" X-Pro1 and 50mm f2.

Well, we didn't do too badly:-

X-Pro1 and 55-200mm

Needless to say, all schools are closed and general services (refuse collection, post etc) suspended

 

[delb0y]

Yes, it finally hit us, too. Took the XP1 out for a walk late afternoon:

Nice one, sharp too.

Could do with a wet sponge. (The horse, not the X-Pro1)

Yes, I had disturbed it mid-roll. (The X-Pro1, not the horse)

Here's one from my X-Pro1 storage files shot around 3.5yrs ago, only getting round to looking at the files now with a bit of time on my hands;

I want a XPro1 again.. even a battered one! Bit of sandpaper to make that “worn” look work, adaptor and an old manual lens.

I’m very fond of this focal length. That’s why I love the WCL on my X100F.

I'd buy another XF18mm at some stage, but my XF18-55mm seems to cover that fixed focal length already, no point in having both really.

Yes but the xf18 with its rectangular lenshood looks the biz on an X-Pro

Ohhh Sacrilege!! I've just posted this in the X100 forum and had to delete as it's taken with my X-Pro1 and 10-24 lens.
