March nearly over

My eye should be sorted by the end of May, my ears, I don’t know, if I am pushy enough they may be sorted by the end of April, that would be cool. When I say ‘sorted’ I don’t mean cured just new hearing aids which may actually work, who knows! My photography ‘business’ got a new name, Wotalife Photographic. I had already placed it on the domain name and took me a while to realise it’d make quite a good name for a business, assuming that is ever what it becomes. I am really not sure where it is going as I don’t really know how to make the transition from amateur to pro whilst not totally buggering up the household finances. I can’t see it, as a money making venture, making a lot if any money for the foreseeable future and, if I head down that route, the benefits get screwed. I’d love to be off benefits but not if it means I can’t afford to pay the bills! ALL holidays are fully booked and paid for now, am happily looking forward to them and just waiting for something to happen which s...

Legacy Site

A site I created to pass on some life time gained knowledge and experience which I intend to update when ever I think of something which might be appropriate for it. Generally speaking, we all know we won’t be around forever and, I often think to myself, what would mum say? Of course, I’ll never know, she died in 1986 but, all the same, we can all do with some friendly advice now and then

Photography page Fully Working

Would very much like to get an eventual business from this photography thing but, lately, I have run out of eager volunteers prepared to make a date and get some pictures taken which would leave me, without investment, dead in the water as this has to totally rely on word of mouth to work.   Holidays to New York all booked. It turned out Virgin Holidays were the cheapest for car rental. Sean and me have something similar to a Mustang convertible whilst, me, Adam and Daisy are getting a tank! OK, more like a Jeer Grand Cherokee! The entire cost for flights, car and hotel for 7 nights was a little over £700 each so, I reckon, a damn bargain! We will be flying Virgin Atlantic from Heathrow with Robin kindly acting as our Limo service in his shiny new Chevrolet Orlando. On a related note, if I ever have need to call Virgin Holidays ever again to sort out a problem, remind me never to allow myself to call India again … a customer should never feel an urge to terminate anything whethe...
