Subtitled “Photojournalists really are a mean bunch”

Today has been a LONG day of delays and excitement.

1. My train into the city was delayed 45 minutes due to signals being struck by lightning … so one tram and a taxi later I managed to make it on time to my lunch appointment.

2. Had lunch and saw lots of colleagues from my old job. It was great catching up with them all.

3. Realising I left my home keys INSIDE my home, I decided to go to Southland to start (yes start) my Xmas shopping. I was there when it all went dark for a second and the heavens opened. The rain was precipitating down outside and INSIDE several stores. Like the caring citizen I am I instantly retrieved the camera from the backpack and started shooting like mad until I overheard a security guard who had been looking at me say into his walkie talkie “Green shirt, big camera” It was at that point I deftly extracted the memory card from my camera, shoved it in my pocket and inserted a new card and left the centre.

Fun day so far. :-)
