This (month's) lens is rather nice - another secondhand bargain I failed to resist - just wish I'd some more time to get to know it better. Would probably be better to use it solidly for a year, rather than just a month of taking a few quick snaps each day. That's how it's been so far.

Still full of lurgy. Coughing, sneezing, runny nose, feeling sore all over, and feeble. Perhaps should've taken the day off. Was bad this morning and overnight seemed to trapped in a weird recurring loop of a dream. I don't know that I was truly asleep all night. Felt a bit better after a dream-free nap at lunchtime.
