Mysteries of the deep with Jeremy Wade

 Well I've been watching the  series Mysteries of the deep, and as something of a fan of Jeremy Wade I had high hopes, his river monsters program took us all over the world and was often fascinating watching.  Sadly I cant say the same for this.
 For starters calling it Mysteries of the deep with Jeremy Wade is a bit misleading. Many of the so called mysteries have been solved or are just myth or ledgend.   Jeremy is just the front man and spends all his time on a cliff or rock in what looks like cornwall to me, he's not exploring the mysteries just introducing the same boring endlessly overdone Discovery type nonsense.  You don't actually see much of him at all.
 I'm guessing he needs the money....

 Let me put it in fishing terms for Jeremy.
 The bait was good, but the hook was too small and the line too light. The fish is off into the tree roots and away.

 Waynes rating 3/10 ok, but you'll be none the wiser for watching it.

Todays pics July 9th

 Heres the first "batch" of new flower images, although theres other stuff in there as well as flowers.   All shot since travel restrictions were lifter here in wales (about bloody time too) Shot on a two different cameras, and three different lens.

Bully Mclaser eyes!

 This chap had me spotted and targeted with his terminator style laser vision.... Oh well the git had seen me anyway.  I sort of got a bit carried away with the description... and the editing...

Todays bonus pic, a Robin

 No not the one with the tights who helps batman....  A real Robin.  Merry Christmas... Ahhh thats not yet is it...

Good news and bad news.

 Yes folks theres good news and bad news, although if I'm honest the bad news isn't really that bad as far as your concerned
 The good news is I've taken a LOAD of new pics the last two day. So many I've balked at the editing today after about a third of one folder (theres 4) So this means there will be lots of nice new images popping up on the blog over the next few weeks. 
Part of the bad news is I need a new bigger bag, I've got more gear on order and the bloody bags crammed as it is. Where the hell my new lens is going I haven't a clue, this situation isn't helped by me buying a few new lens over the last year, some bigger than the ones I had before.  I also need a someone to carry the bloody bag as well.  It now weighs the same as a collapsed dwarf star!

 The other bad news is one of my new hideously expensive watches has gone MIA.  I made the mistake of letting someone else wear it on the first day of free travel in Wales.  Somebody is now the proud owner of a three figure price watch, the first figure being a four....   Ok it was £4.99 but thats still three figures in my book.  Ok it did loose an hour every hour, and the strap snapped but it was brand new....   I'll try not to loose any sleep over it...  FFS that was nearly a fiver!

 In other news I really fancy a proper holiday.  It's been longer than I care to remember since I last had a proper break away, I'm fancying Yorkshire, so maybe later in the year when things calm down a bit I'll escape for a few days.
