Sold my Canon EOS R, bought a Canon R6. They're barely in stock anywhere at the moment, and yet Wex was selling a used one for less than the normal price. Turns out it was a review model (not sure if it was internal or some youtuber had it for a lend) and it was only used for tests, meaning it was practically brand new.

I normally don't change cameras often, but it seemed like a much better fit for my needs.

A yoga wheel to so some serious stretching of my back.  Felt pretty good using it.  <whew>

 :laugh:  Not quite!  I put myself on it to reverse stretch my mid back to relieve the cramps I get there from work.  I'm not tied up like the Spanish Inquisition is there.   :eyebrows:  Yeah, I know, nobody expects the SPANISH INQUISITION!   :eyebrows:

Ever got that feeling that you're trying to teach a dog a card trick?

Two living room floor lamps shaped like a cluster of Japanese paper lanterns.

A nice little antique Wedgewood dark blue with white pill box.  I love wedgewood china.

Yep, I told Kayleigh that the watch is her Christmas present because it was bloody expensive. All I bought for myself was a couple of CDs.

I have the old version of the Samsung one. Pretty good, although it had to be repaired after its sensors failed.
