Its Arrived.

Guess what arrived at our house today???????
I got a wonderful surprise this afternoon when the delivery man came knocking on my door. Steve led me to beleive that my camera hadn't arrived in the shop yet, never lone having arrived and been forwarded out to us, so it definately was a surprise when the delivery man knocked at the door with a parcel from Camera's Direct. Must say there service has been fantasic. Would definately recommend going through them if you were ever looking for a new camera.














Steve came home this afternoon in one of his spares to check on me too - the sweetheart, he knows how sick I have been and just wanted to make sure I was OK. He popped home this morning for 20 minutes also. This afternoon though I think he was secretly hoping the delivery guy would arrive whilst he was home but no, 5 minutes after he went back to work, I got a knock at the door. I had to ring him straight away and let him know, and he did say I could open it then and there but I decided to wait until he got home after school (about 4pm) to open the box, (It was real hard to wait too), but this is as much his new toy as it is mine, so I didn't want him to miss the excitement. Anyway thought you would like to see a few photos of my new toy.

Looking forward to the weekend when hopefully we will be able to have a bit more of a play with it.
Thought this was an interesting quote.

My husband would love to have a camera like that. Too many options for me. :) Have fun with it.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I quickly figured out your location with that talk of summer. It's so cold here, summer seems a dream away. I have a dear friend in Loftus. Not sure where that is in repect to you.
Have a lovely warm day. :)
