Jake

As most people know by now Jake was taken from us very unexpectedly on Saturday afternoon. Beth wrote a very eloquent obituary and I don't think there's much I can add except that every time I read it I want to cry again.

New Toy

28/07/09

My Panasonic TZ7 came today. I've spent far too long poring over camera specs trying to decide what "point and shot" to get next and in the end this was the one I went for.  read more ...
