Britain’s Got Talent

>> Friday, 24 April 2009

Everyone is talking about Susan Boyle, a Scottish woman who has entered “Britain’s got Talent”.  You can see the clip here.  She has had the most hits on YouTube ever - more than Obama’s inauguration speech – over 100 million.  Good luck to her, however my favourite act so far, by a country mile, is Stavros Flatly and his Boy the Greek/Irish Dancers, what a laugh!!

Inverbroom Lodge
Last week was spent with the Monks Clan in Inverbroom Lodge outside Ullapool in the North West of Scotland.  The reason for this get together was to celebrate Jean’s 70th birthday and we had all been saving up for it for over a year.  Everyone was really looking forward to it – all 18 of us (maybe not Rory who celebrated his 4 week birthday while we were there).

Wednesday was the last league competition of the year.  Just got sent the final positions for the various categories. 
I was 3rd in the Mono section before Wednesday, but with my results in the final round I managed to sneak into 2nd – by 1 point!!  I am kicking myself because I didn’t enter the 2 of the mono competitions because I was wanting to concentrate on the colour – next year!!!

Camera Club Competition #6 Results

>> Thursday, 2 April 2009

Didn't do too bad last night - Ella in colour was second and my Tulips got placed in the top 10 in the A prints. In the Mono the boy with the tractor got placed and Ella in B&W got 4th (I think) I will confirm this when I get the official results.  Not sure if I managed to get 2nd in the final standings in the Mono section – maybe.

Ella in Colour - 2nd
