What bought you to AK Tony?

Broken engagement. My sister got married on the same day "we" were meant to. I moved to Auckland the next day.
To make things worse "she"was at my sisters wedding......dont talk to my sister much.

well tony, the bright side is, at least "she" wasnt your sister's bride...
now that would have been 'worst case scenario'

Olch!

Many years ago, when I was a young fella, I was engaged to a particular lady but we broke it off about 3 months prior. I had booked and paid for a honeymoon in the Bay of Islands, still went, took a mate and had a great time, fishing, diving, drinking, it was terrific. I moved from Timaru to Lower Hutt about 3 months latter.

lol sometimes i wonder how many halves of married couples wished they took a mate on the honeymoon rather than their spouse!

The reality was I was a big a$$ back then. She made the right choice. I deserved to loose her.

Umm.........I am still an a$$

Im married to a Saint

Tony - one of the long exposures from Sunday..

Oh nice & moody shot Chris. If you could darken that bit of brighter blue sky, it would almost have a "stormy" feeling.

I had a call earlier today about that Church in Parnell that overlooks the container wharf. The scaffolding is down. Anyone interested in have a go at this, I was thinking of long exposure type shots & possibly some off cam. flash.

The problem was the steel cap boots I was wearing, not the best for hiking.
I only realised when i got home, and took my sock off expecting to find a small stone in my sock, and saw a blister instead.

Speaking of boots, Chris, I have an extra pair here, care to swap for an EOS solutions CD sometime in November?
