…my camera’s bust – the lens is stuck. It’s been stucky for ages, but has always cleared itself with a bit of jigging and poking. But I took it out this morning and it’s stuck for good. We’d gone out for a drive and a walk, the weather was fantastic, with blue skies and bright sun – perfect for photos. But it was not to be.
Bah. And of course, with a car purchase imminent, there’s no money to spare for a new camera. Bah again.
But I made another nice sourdough loaf today. I’d have bored you all with another piccy, if the camera were working….

Oh poo – sorry to hear about the camera Val.
Had a thought though. With so many of us routinely buying new cameras as their specs improve, there must be loads of perfectly serviceable digital cameras out there that are no longer used and being sold for peanuts (or even sourdough bread 🙂 ).
I’ve only ever bvought one that I’ve had for many years and still works well, but surely a note in your local shop would produce a few local folk with ‘extras’ that they would be willing to part with for a pittance?
Good luck!

I know I can buy a s/h camera cheap. Problem is, I can’t even afford cheap right now! Thanks for the thought though.
