Oh crap. Rotten luck there, Adam.

Both! No desire for either really ...... but I was referring to Dizzy "blaming" Leica! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Surely one will be the backup?

Good tip. Thanks. I have never had one.

As per Chris ..... rucksacks with assorted padding if deciding to have spare clothes etc.
Otherwise a small LowePro shoulder bag .... or nothing, just one camera with lens.

πŸ‘€ Blimey, Sandeep. Is everything ok?

Have fun ..... I will be at the dentist! 😐

There is a show?
I have not bought a photo magazine in ages ..... I recall that is where they were advertised 20 or 30 years ago.
I think I am busy ....

Very neat πŸ‘Œ

Yep.
Take care, Morag.

This thread made me do 20 mins of online research about what qualifies for being "disabled".
I have never considered myself such ..... but it seems I (possibly) "qualify" on 2 or 3 levels!
Mmmmm ....
I have never had to jump through hoops for support - as I feel I don't need any.
Just med apps ...

Exhausting ..... for you, and everyone else. ❀️

True πŸ‘

Yeah ....... you are right.
I can relate ..... various bits of me not working as advertised.

10.03.2026 13:07 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Yeah .... I know. Nowt wrong with aiming high though.
It is good when I see others eg, GP's going that extra bit to especially help the frail and disabled.

This is hopeless. What do they want? A self certification that you are suffering from xyz?
It should be that an appropriate professional (medical or possibly otherwise) inspects, observes and examines - then writes a true report of findings.

Yeah, the societal support system in UK is mostly there by name only.
Whether it is for youngsters (getting SEND assessments for instance) or older folk like me (where bits are starting to fall off πŸ˜†) - and to everyone in between.
Sadly,once you dig through layers of obstification - it's "prove it"

Ooof. So frustrating for you ...... and I also get Marie's point about having to do more.

10.03.2026 12:31 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Oh! Interesting! ..... though I only have 135 and 120 cameras.
TY.

Crikes. I didn't know such sized FP4 was available!

A BnW print.
The gable end of a historic wood framed building / house with a black and white grid pattern.
There is modern stuff around it such as bins and a raising barrier gate at the bottom of frame. There are modern buildings in the background and at the top of the frame.

The odd juxtaposition of a historic half wooden framed house surrounded by differing generations of modern buildings.

Yes. I am no expert but my Nikkor lenses seem to be a bit more contrasty than the Sigma. Online viewing is different, and especially with the stuff I post!
I do not scan - so all my photos posted are darkroom prints - and then I take a phone snap of them. Some days my hand is steadier than others! πŸ˜…
