random 659 Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Went for a mooch on a golf course permission and everywhere was soaked,couldn't really go anywhere without loudly squelching and splashing,couple of times I stepped in ankle deep puddles when wasn't looking where I was going properly! And to top it off I missed the only shot I had all the time I was there,looks like some static lamping needs to be planned out til everywhere dries out a tad I reckon,well moan over.... Until the weekend when I can get on a dairy farm which will no doubt be even worse!... Quote Link to post

The damp cold days of winter gets to everyone in the building trade Davy. Hibernation or a change of vocation is needed. As a retired ex construction industry worker myself I take two ibuprofen tablets just to get me down the stairs in the morning. The other morning after an early shoot I slipped heavily onto to my back on waterlogged turf getting into to my parked car, I spent the next two days in agony. Regards, Steve. Quote Link to post
