One from the challenge yesterday (the original colour version). On the boating lake. I was glad to get this photo as I'd spent nearly an hour in my local bank just trying to get a statement printout. I queued at one machine but it wasn't printing mini-statements, just the balance. So I tried another queue and waited, and waited, and waited .................... 25 mins later I was still there as some people up the front were faffing about. I saw another queue by some more machines so joined that one; waited for another 15 mins. Finally got to a machine, requested a statement printout, only to be told by a member of staff that this particular machine wasn't issuing printed statement as it was new and there was a giltch.
I was so hot and bothered I took a walk through the park and came across this family enjoying a canoe ride on the lake. So at least something came of it. I was rather hot and bothered by the time I got home.
This is all on top of yesterday when I went for a routine blood test, only to find when I got to the hospital that there were 120 people waiting in front of me. I left! The world's gone mad ..................................... I certainly have.
This chap actually managed to hit a coot's nest, although he had the whole lake to row around. Top left of the pic you can see a blurred bird as it was dislodged from the nest and flew into the air in a right flap. Duh!
