Did he require permission?

Question, would/could a fully manual camera be construed as an electronic device?

If it's got no built-in light meter, then no, it's purely mechanical.

I may have overdone things today - my back is very painful :sad:

Two hours were spent this morning digging over a border and then a load of weeding around the garden then in the afternoon, rather than take things easy, I went out for a 3 hour/10 mile walk. Unfortunately I didn't realise how cold it was in the wind as I was constantly moving and felt OK, but when I got home I just could not get warm and spend half an hour wrapped up in a sleeping bag!
Then on top of that there was a trip to Ipswich to see Penelope Isles playing at The Smokehouse and another couple of hours standing around.

Keeping an eye on an auction on the 'bay for a ladies' Omega DeVille tank watch. Not bidding, but just want to see what it goes for as I have one that's almost identical (mine has a silver dial, this one has a champagne dial). Opening bid was £9.99, it's now sitting at £102 with three days still to go. :wacko:

Would it be rude to admit that I paid 50p for mine on a Red Cross jumble sale? :blush:

Jumble sales were good for that sort of thing pre-covid, as were charity shops before they all went posh. On the 'bay, you have to think outside the box somewhat.

Think my best buy bling-wise other than the Omega was an 18 carat white gold bracelet set with blue topaz that cost me £2.99 in a local charity shop. I slunk out feeling rather embarrassed after handing over the readies, but it's their fault that they didn't notice the hallmarks on the clasp... :whistle:
