It rained 😠
Llion lost his torch 😞
I had a major "wobble" on the 1st pitch when I got the shakes 😮 :lol:
We bolted the next 2 pitches ready for next time :thumbup:
Llion found his torch on the way out :thumbsup:
An old couple in a volvo drove through the lay by as we getting changed and thought we were doggers 😮
We went for a curry 😉

The perfect night out, and another return trip planned to drop down the next pitches :thumbsup:

I wasn't mistaken for a dogger because I was driving back home to collect my helmet that I'd forgotten! 😞

Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.

That was a great evening out! I finally got a few photos uploaded.

These were a bit of a test for the D700 with 28mm cheapo brand prime lens. Works OK, but not very sharp so if anyone wants to flog me an old 24mm or 28mm Nikkor manual lens nice and cheap, I'm in the market for one.

No probs, we will be making a return trip ASAP :thumbup:
Don't want to steal simonrl's thunder so we'll wait until he returns from hols and then we can pop down there again?
Say Thursday 8th provisionally TBC nearer the time? Ha! How's that for forward planning? :smartass:
Meantime, it's now Tuesday and being the total 'slacker' that I am ( :tongue: 😉 ) I haven't arranged a trip for THIS Thursday yet... :curse:
Leave it with me.... :angel:
