Which wife, I'm not married.
I would marry you if you like, without asking, and of course the
wedding present would be this brand new raincoat .
I'm sure you would appreciate it, and you would not regret, having
married me , cause I'm a man of wealth and taste.
You remember this song ?
Think about it !!

Best offer i've had this week, let me think about it......nah, no worth the aggro i would get from her indoors. But i'll keep your details, you never know!

Sorry, always thought the team of pul consists exclusively of good looking women !
Elements and pul dominate my raincoat collection. Hope you agree !

I wouldn't say they are all good looking women, occasionally i wear a wig and get plenty of compliments

Treat yourself Ray, with all the shit going on its nice to have that surprise arriving on the doorstep!

cheers

Nice idea but my next treat should be a new camera, what are you using these days?

Hi Ray, when on location and not wanting to draw attention to myself i use a Leica D-lux 109 compact, if i want to use the big guns i get my Nikon D500 out with a 2.8 24-70 lense which is a cracking bit of kit! If you need any advice on kit email me by all means. Gaz

Leica D-lux 109
Is that what you used down in Romford?

The first picture was with the Nikon D500 which is great for low light but all the other shots on and around the London Underground were with the Leica D-Lux type 109. The Type 109 has been discontinued now but you can buy them second hand for about £500, the replacement is the D - Luz 7 https://www.parkcameras.com/shop/leica- ... a_l012571k I was actually thinking about upgrading mine to a Leica SL1 but a bit pricey when I already own a Nikon D500.

I've been using a Nikon D3000 for a number of years but now I'm finding it quite bulky to carry around so I'm looking for something more compact, I'll have a look at the Leicas I've also heard some good things about some of the compact Fujis based on the price

D3000 bulky?? lol lol You are getting old my friend!
I had that one now got the D5300.
Like you time for an upgrade!

What you want is one of those! lol lol

Hi Ray, yes the Fuji cameras are excellent value and you will not be able to tell the difference with a Leica excellent lightweight camera.
