More playing with toys, less photos
Well I finally bought my Porsche 911 and far too busy driving around to think about using my GXR and updating my blog. Need to find time to do both.
Today went to check out the car museum in Rochetaille in Lyon and saw some fantastic old cars although nothing quite as nice as mine :)

2 birds
GXR-M + Ricoh GR 28mm f2.8 L
Today had lunch with Damien at Red Lion Square, next to my old workplace. Was quite nice to eat outside especially at this time of the year.

Duck in Clerkenwell
Ricoh GXR / Pentax-L 43mm f1.9 "special"
I did not expect to see a duck in Clerkenwell during a usual day in the office. Seems like ducks are following me everywhere recently. Took this on my way back from lunch at the Barbican after a quick stopover at Red-Dot camera.

View from Greenwich
Today we tempted to go for a long walk from Greenwich, accross the foot tunnel and towards Wapping and have a drink at the power station. Well, we got as far as Island gardens and it started to rain so heavily so we sort of gave up. Over lunch I had possibly the biggest burger ever served to me at a pub that looked rather like a deserted church.

No more hoarding glass
Ok finally sold both my Zeiss lenses. Had it not been for eBay and Paypal's abusive fee's I would have broke even. Hard to believe that for each 600 pound lens, I have to pay out around 40 quid eBay, and 20 quid paypal. In the future I'll do all my lens trading on RFF... Anyway, I rather have the Ricoh GR 28mm f2.8 over the Biogon equivalent any day. The build quality of the Ricoh lens is outstanding and something I've not seem on any other lens.
Have to mention that matsuiyastore store in Japan is fantastic. Lens was purchased Saturday at 18:00 and it was received in my office today at 12:00. Second lens I buy from them, the first was the Konica M-Hexanon 28mm f2.8 which I like very much. Each purchase is pure pleasure.
This is now my second copy of the GR lens after the first got stolen from me a year ago.
Ok anyway, I really need to start posting more... and no more lens purchases at all now.

Pentax and Ricoh
Well today I got my new lens from the Parcelforce depot in North West London. Crazy import and duty to pay but it's still worth it. This lens is fantastic.

Pub finding group walk in Kent
Had a really enjoyable day out with the The London Walking and Pub-finding Group. Only took the Summicron 50mm f2 with me.
