Scanning slides from my trip round the world 2000-2002. This one is from July 2001. Might need some slight colour correction but this is the original scan of a 19 year old slide. View attachment 525370

Nice! Where 'bouts?

Is it an Ibanez?

No idea, there aren't any labels on it other than one that says "Top Twenty". Dad used to make cases for musical instruments, so I have ended up with various. Less useful than a chocolate teapot to me, because I'm the most unmusical person on the planet.

Anyways, time to go construct a lasagne...

DHL still haven't delivered my beer and I haven't been out for a ride because I've been waiting in. It's been ''out for delivery'' since 8 this morning. Grrr!

It is up the Dart river near Queenstown, New Zealand. I’d need to to check my round the world journals to be sure. But pretty sure that’s the river we headed up.

Went out to photograph the ISS last night (just after 10pm) when this little hunter began buzzing about:

Haven't seen any bats in ages. The first house I bought had a large picture window through which I could watch them fitting about as twilight came on each night. I used to be mesmerised.
