No Von, they were distributed around local shops, but we took a photo of them. :-)

Too quiet for me. I am used to walking to the Tube, and darting around all over the place. :-D

My OH liked cameras .....I've got a number in cupboards. Most were his but also my dad's and his dad's.....plus a box brownie :-D

Auto focus digital was what OH ended up with too.....I gave them to my gt nieces as their father is into photography :-)

I wouldnt feel safe walking around London with a 'proper' camera around my neck, if I was on my own. Too many people with sticky fingers. :-(

LondonBelle Report 17 May 2024 19:51

I agree Maddie.....I have a Pixel phone which is suppose to take good photos.....not that I've taken all that many ;-) :-D

LondonBelle

LondonBelle Report 17 May 2024 19:52

Although I'm loathed to take me phone out too up town :-( :-(

We were talking the other day about photos. Remember when you bought a roll of 36, took them into Boots and were only happy with about 3 of them. :-D :-D

My dad when I was young used to develop his own :-0

Von

Von Report 17 May 2024 19:53

We’ve had quite a few as well. Grandaughter has one but the best one is the one OH

has now. It is a small digital one but you can do all sorts on it. You can point and shoot

but OH likes to experiment ;-) ;-) ;-)

Mine has video on it, and you can add filters too. Any more than that I have yet to discover. :-D

LondonBelle

LondonBelle Report 17 May 2024 19:57

It's amazing what they can do now :-0 :-D

Also, the mobile phones how they have advanced :-0 I can remember when they first came out.....it was like holding a brick to your ear :-0 :-D

Texting was a chore too. Pushing the buttons a number of times to get the right letter. :-0
