Dear Patrick,

 

 Actually , with the financial situation as it is I must confess that it was
Crisco. I think I would have gotten away with it but I had this packet of
Shake and Bake as well and things got out of hand…..

Uncle Dick,

 

Was the massage oil flavored or just scented?

Dear Friends,

 

                 I sometimes wonder about me. No, not the bit about what I
look like in the mirror – I am used to that. I mean about what I was
thinking when I….

1.        Retired from my honourable profession and took up selling cameras in
a shop.

2.       Laid aside my 35mm , 6 x 6 and 4 x 5 cameras and bought a DSLR.

3.       Painted myself with massage oil and ran through the dressing room at
the burlesque club.

 

I can only conclude that I took leave of my senses, or they took leave of me.
Of course I realise that the only constant in time is variation – all things
change and generally for either the better or the worse. Or in the case of our
federal government, for both at the same time….( Next election I am voting
for the party that legalises massage oil….)

 

The change of pace and lifestyle occasioned by the first decision is
interesting. I seem to have a great deal more fun in life and a great deal
less worry. This is bound to come to the attention of the authorities and lead
to repression, but I am determined to enjoy it whilst I may. The third thing,
well, don’t let them kid you that policemen fed on doughnuts cannot run.

 

As for retiring all the good old film cameras, I have cagily retired them to
the household safe and will be regularly exercising and checking them against
the advent of an affordable 6 x 6 back and a revival of interest in optically
correct landscape photography. Buy good, keep good.

 

 Uncle Dick
