Post Rugby . . .

After a trip to darkest Surrey in the brightest February conditions to see Hannah's team snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, I have watched Ireland's Rugby Union team scrape through against Italy and a dogged, deserved win for Wales against an imploding England - what an afternoon! I also managed to structure the day to my advantage and it seems everyone elses advantage as they went shopping and I was able to watch the rugby - worked out fine!

Following on from yesterday's post - I seem to have ironed out the harddrive issues and so far - everything is working and behaving as expected. A timely arrival from China will make Sunday's shoot easier as two Flash Shoe Umbrella thingies turned up yesterday and they do exactly what they are supposed to . . . I can now shoot with a variety of white shoot through or reflective umbrellas, a small or large softbox and the usual omnibounce domes. Wonderful to shoot wirelessly with the various SBs and the Pocket Wizards - no cables and even less clutter. The only issue about tomorrow's shoot is that it is Sauff of da Wiver and I will need the passport stamped! Still waiting for the Pocket Wizard Caddies and some custom cables from Cinncinatti, US of A - I'll have to be patient for these. As usual the American Photo Stores and online outlets trounce any of the UK stores for these interesting bits an pieces. There is a gap in the market somewhere . . .
