Alex at the Palmers

It’s all tinky winky’s fault. We went to see the very pregnant Palmers at the weekend. Whilst we were there tinky winky (or Tim as he is sometimes known) whipped out his camera and took a few snaps of the boy wonder. He then put them on his website and sent me an email that same evening.

SWMBO took one look and proclaimed that the pictures were much better than any I had taken to date. Click on the thumbnail to see a sample (cut down from it’s original 3 megabytes though). She insisted that I rectify the situation immediately. I, however, could put a fairly accurate price on the equipment that tinky winky had been wielding and was a little fearful of parting with that much cash.

She worked on me though. Wore me down. Relentless she was. And I buckled, because I know my place. I didn’t go the full monty though, I got the slightly cheaper version. Think of it as flexing my independence muscles. We are now the proud owners of a Canon EOS300D.

Which is nice.

  1. Congratulations on your purchase.
    You’ll be delighted to hear that you and I effectively own the same camera, except with yours being the newer model, Canon have shaved £300 off the price tag.
    I hope you’re all very happy together – and you don’t confuse the nappy and camera bags on your travels.

  2. Well, are we going to see the results of the new purchase, to see if it was indeed the handyman or the tool responsible in the past?
