New camera (inappropriately wrapped)

Monday 27th August 2012, 3.35pm (day 368)

Not an Xmas present, 27/8/12

In this box is my new camera. All but two of the photos on this blog so far have been taken with my Fujifilm Finepix JZ210 but the zoom has been increasingly unreliable lately and it’s being gracefully retired with honours. This may be the last picture taken with it. It’s done a good job. Consider this pic the tribute to it.

I did ask Clare why she thought to wrap its replacement in High School Musical paper that said ‘Happy Christmas’ on it but the answer was not a very satisfactory one. (Incidentally I didn’t open this yesterday because Joe was not around and he wanted to be in on it.)

Joe tries out his Christmas present

Sunday 25th December 2011, 12.15pm (day 122)

Joe the photographer, 25/12/11

Hard to know quite how to encapsulate a day like Christmas without cliché. But here is Joe using one of his Christmas presents…. a chip off the old block? Who knows?

The game, by the way, is mölkky, a version of skittles for which I developed a liking in Finland last midsummer. Very tactical. Worth a try, if you have a piece of flat land about half the size of a tennis court to play it on.

Also, today is the end of the 4th month of this blog. I feel like I have been doing it forever. Actually I have twice as much left as I have already done.

And a happy Christmas to you all….
