Tidying up some folders and came across this clip from 2009. Over the hills from Sa Pa to Bac Ha on a rather inclement monsoon day. Huge drop on one side, torrents of water and the occasional boulder coming down the other. Visibility... less than ideal.😁 Trip well worth it for the Sunday market

Has to be this little beast. Tough as nails, great lenses. Doesn't have the cachet of the K1000, not a "pro" machine like the LX, but I kept it over both of them. Chuck it in a bag or a pocket, take it anywhere, and it gets out of the way and lets you take pictures

I took this photo in the Showgrounds in May 2007 & posted it online describing him as "one of the brightest prospects in the league". Tonight, at 37 and surely at the tail end of a stellar career, he put in 98 minutes of pure class as Ireland beat Portugal. Seamie Coleman - stone cold legend

Ride-hailing - Bolt: It's not Uber
Video hosting: PeerTube; Dailymotion - Only using them right now for private videos to share with family. Either works fine for that
