Cheers . I have around  3000 pics taken over the last 30 odd years cover g.most British quarry.  It was always part of my day to takes pics as memories are precious. 

Spot on FH, things changed regarding photos as memories when smart phones took over. You still can't beat picking up a proper photo. My dad couldn't have said a truer word when he said " everyone takes all these photos on there mobile, but if you lose your mobile all the memories are lost". "At least we got them developed and kept the memories in a box".

Well done SD , I keep thinking about going out but then I cant be bothered, bloody Covid. On the plus side I am definitely out tomorrow afternoon as have an order for a roe. Hopefully that will spur me on to get back out there ?
