It's Red Nose Day! If any of the red nose themed photos on Flickr this week have made you chuckle, why not give a few pounds to help make a difference? Count up your spare change and donate online, not forgetting to gift aid it!
I'm looking forward to my night in front of the telly. There'll be laughter, there'll be tears...there may even be spillages!
71: After the rain.
Had to go into the town for a dental appointment, I had to wait ages and after my dentist wanted to chat about Japanese netsuke carvings, I couldn`t help wondered about the poor patient after me waiting downstairs and probably feeling quite forgotten.
I took a few shots on the walk back but kept having to dodge the over zealous religious groups who kept trying to inform me of the state of my immortal soul.
Managed to get the work finished and another delighted customer and a cheque warming in my pocket.
I will be away in London for a few days, so have a good weekend yourselves! :)

Today was Family Wylde haircut day! My gorgeous hairdresser, Efi, only works in the salon on Saturdays so a haircut for me becomes a family outing [and no, I can't find another hairdresser, she is my friend and i love her]. So along with my chop violet also gets hers done. Which she loves and in fact, she's been known to fall asleep...
Something blurry
Back to posting my London shots. Taken sometime back but just finally posting it. Taken using the CV 1.4 fully open.
Wasn't sure whether to post this. What do you think?

Well for once, I had a weekend home. And the gods smiled, and the weather in London is MUCH better than Eastern Europe...10+C and sunny!!
Too bad I'm leaving for Romania in 3 hours
