That made the day so much better too. <\/p>\n<p>The crowd was rather disappointing though, but better than last year when, rather astonishingly, no-one turned up at all.<br \/>\n<br clear=\"both\"><\/p>\n<p>This afternoon I finally finished sorting out all of the photos &#8211; all nicely arranged, stored and documented &#8211; and I&#8217;ve sent the ones off that this author guy wants. That&#8217;s that out of the way and hopefully the cash will be in the bank in early course. Some photos were in triple, if not quadruple, examples and I&#8217;ve cleared tons of room out on the external drive that I&#8217;ll be storing them on from now on.<\/p>\n<p>But there are files stored on there from when I first started backing up on external drives, back in 2002, and what might be a good idea would be to go through them all and make a proper continual stream of files instead of having them stored by reference to the hard drive that they used to be on. Another thing that I might do is now that the big desktop computer is redundant, to take one of the 500GB drives out of that and fit it into a caddy that I have lying around here, and make an external drive just for photos. You&#8217;ve no idea how much space these photos take. The first few years of digital photography, 2001-2005, take up less than 1 DVD of space. In one week in Canada in 2010 I used more space than that.<\/p>\n<p>And before I forget, for I&#8217;ve already forgotten twice, a big thank-you to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sagephotoworld.com\/\">Rhys<\/a> as the phone that he sent to me arrived on Friday and it works fine.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-190 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='190' data-nonce='16ce856f7d' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' \/><span class='lc-190 lc'>+2<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-190 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='190' data-nonce='16ce856f7d' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Unlike' \/><span class='unlc-190 unlc'>-2<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-190 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; of rain fell last night.
