Dead jealous.  I love that camera.

I was actually looking at it in the store at the weekend and it had a faulty alarm on it.  The store guy was like, I am going to need you to put that down so the alarm doesn't keep going off.  I told him too bad, I was going to look at it so he better get used to that alarm!

I know, i'm excited! At the store I went to, they didn't have the lens. Or any others in stock. He said he could sell the floor model, but didnt know when the lens would be in.  I was so annoyed. He wasn't making any sense! So I just walked out on the salesperson and bought it on amazon.  ;D

Let me know how you like it.  I just love that thing and would like to know if it lives up.

Early anniversary card from MIL & FIL today.  DH's family has a thing about making their own, usually silly, cards from photographs of each other or ourselves, etc.

This one has Mum & Dad sitting out in their garden.  Speaking balloon from Mum - "Until you get married, you don't know what happiness is."

Thought balloon from Dad - "Then it's too late."

"From the 49'ers" (they'll be married 49 years in Sept).

 :D

Hahaha! That is great! I love homemade personal cards like that. And that's exactly why I think Hallmark cards just don't cut it! :P

Yeah, I got my passport back after sending it away to get my provisional license. It came 5 days after my license got here - and I was starting to get worried...

Ah... somehow all is right with the world when you've got your passport with you ;D

Received my ballot in the post today (because I'm a union member), to vote for the next leader of the Labour Party!  ;D

Exciting!!!!!  :)

The question is: which Milliband?  :P :-*

I am thinking of ordering a couple of dresses on sale and now maybe wellies, as Mr MLG bought golf shoes and we agreed I get the equivalent value of purchase power. So if I do it, I hope they arrive in the post soon!
