When I woke up this morning and looked out onto a grey wet world, I didn't think I was going to be able to go out for a walk and play with the new DSLR. By noon the weather had cleared and the sun had come out. Therefore I decided that it was worth the risk, and went out to the nature park that borders the town.

On the way there I had to stop and fuzzle a little black cat who promptly covered my top in mucky paw prints. :)

I didn't take as many pictures as I would have liked as I've only a 128MB card in the camera at present. I do have a couple of 8GB SanDisk ones on order which I should have by the end of the week.

Even being a little restricted, I was able to experiment a bit. and took enough pictures to get a feel for the camera. The best 16 of which I've bunged on flickr.

As I was sitting in Costa the rain returned, and I got soaking wet on the way home. Oh, well, at least it happened at the end, and so, I am now on the comfy sofa in my nighty having lobbed my soggy and slightly muddy clothes straight in the washer.

Have you tried out your new airport express yet?

I have one of the original ones and it still works really well.

It is in use as I type. It works very well indeed, although there is a remote management bug. However the workround is fairly easy.

If I get another couple, I can get rid of most of the cables around this house, by using them in wifi extension mode, and for providing remote audio from the PC to the bedroom and lounge.
