I'm here! But I'm nobody... nothing... a mere iota, a spec in the cosmos. We are all nobody... and we are all doomed... Perhaps they are all scared witless (I did say witless)by the EU vision of ever-faster-approaching financial Armageddon? Perhaps they are looking fior jobs (there are none). Perhaps (and this is just one of my wilder theories) they have sold their camera gear ( ) and have joined an economic forum to discuss the mis-management of bankers (I did say bankers), politicians and other assorted masters who mis-rule our sad empty over-consuming lives. On the other hand, they could just, like Katy, be knee-deep in Christmas prep!!!! Merry Christmas, Antonio.

Our future lays in the hands of the so called "markets" which are in fact controlled by... I will not say. The future is dark. In this chaotic ambiance some young people, have children !! Merry Christmas Rob in spite of the situation. Health to you. (the most important). May a whatever god help us in the forthcoming days. I am very pessimist.

Hi Antonio, I am here as well. Just trying to settle into the time of year, busy time at work, dark early, light late and such. The weather sucks, rain, rain and more rain..... makes getting out and finding descent light a real chore, but I am here.

I have also been busy over past few evenings, as I have been putting together another talk to give to a local camera club.

I certainly has been quiet on here for the last few days. I was hoping we were going to hit 10,000 posts by Christmas and have a wild drunken bash at Katy's place, TVs slung out of the windows, Rob's Rolls Royce in the swimming pool...usual stuff. But alas I will have to settle for a tin of Irn Bru down the bush shelter I hope it is just a seasonal blip. I have not sold my camera yet but if our illustrious government keep insisting on taking all my hard earned cash to improve the rail link between Manchester and Leeds then I may well have to beg the use of Beckies Diana...at least it is medium format. I do get the feeling that our leaders do tend to make sure their mates are alright and throw the scraps out for us to knaw on.

If your government is going to take you money to improve rail links and/or whatever they wish, just imagine what is going to happen here, in this rectangle !
Pink is nice. However,blue is my favourite colour...

TVs slung out of the windows, Rob's Rolls Royce in the swimming pool...usual stuff Surely you meant Rob's medicine cabinet thrown out of the window, and Rob's Peugeot 207 diesel (turbo) in the muddy puddle at the end of the unimproved lane?

Katy wont let us in if she thinks we're the the rough sort..we will stick to the Rols and 52" plasma story. Antonio it is actually a blue one...I was just trying to make rob jealous.

Rols ?? Nothing better IMHO than a BMW like this. Automatic version if you please However these days, to drive a car like this in Portugal would be an outrage.
