And some rest…

Hey – thanks everyone for your wonderful comments on my last post. I am feeling refreshed after a day off and then a bit of a lazy day yesterday with just some nice easy, repetitive coding work.

And a nice photo for Vessel Wednesday in a different style from the usual.

Yesterday I bought a Lomo Lubitel 166 from eBay uk. One just sold for over double the price on our local auction site trademe. It’s just nuts what things sell for here sometimes. It’s funny because people here think it’s expensive to buy from eBay when in reality it’s often much cheaper even including the postage. Anyway – can’t wait to get it!!

In other news Astrid { from Norway – not my daugher } has just entered blogland – so do go and say hello!

    Yep sometimes you can get lucky on ebay with obscure finds, even with postage n all.I’ve found cool props for shows that way too. It’s a blessing really coz all the 2nd hand stores that we used to rely on for such stuff are disappearing.

    Hei, thanks for the welcome. And thank you (again and again and again) for your help with the coding and stuff.

    I still haven’t bought anything of ebay, although I’m pretty sure I could get hooked on it. Better keep off then ๐Ÿ˜‰

    I love the images you get with lomos! I’ve been intrigued by them for a while but don’t have one of my own. Congrats on finding one on ebay! Can’t wait to see what you do.
