Well at least you have some spectacular wildlife to look at even if the 
weather is bad.  They seem to be shooting all of our animals here in the UK 
at the moment.  Many parts of the countryside are off-limits and most city 
folk are keeping well away from the fields and the fires.

Have been working away from the office for the last few days - did take a 
camera along for the trip although not large format.  Was tempted to take 
the Korona 4x5 on the train but had enough to carry with all the work 
related gear.   It was a close thing though - if the weather forecast had 
not been so dire then it would probably have come along anyway :-)

The whole of Trafalgar Square is being boarded over at the moment for a big 
concert on Sunday which includes REM (the band).  Did find an excellent 
shot near the Houses of Parliament so will have to return with a larger 
camera in a month or so.  Took an infrared snap with a digital camera as a 
marker and reminder......

Won't ramble on too much as I can hear my voice echoing around the empty 
list - don't know what has happened to everyone - maybe school 
holidays.....  Anyway, have loads to catch up on.

Later,
           Clive
