"what can you do but just sit and sweat in such hot conditions?" weeksi, gold coast, december 2003.
i'm up on the gold coast for Christmas and it's pretty warm, like so hot you can't actually sleep in cause it's too sweaty...and cause the sun gets up at 4:30 it's hard to stay longer than a few hours... :)

so i was coming out of a wedding...
the camera full of shots from norn iron + my trip + friends + arty stuff (all on B/W courtesy of graham robinson) when i waved good bye to some friends.
as i did my hand caught the strap (good one you clumsy bum!) and ejected (threw, chucked, pegged, turfed, dropped, hauled...) my precious camera and cargo onto the road under a parked car...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh...it happened so quick it was more surprising than annoying. i was hoping it was ok but knew twas smashed! result:door semi-snapped (now semi-fixed), flash broken, and film out. so looks like i lost 36 shots, which really stinks! the camera still works which is a relief...i then played squash and won 4 games to 2 and now (2 days later) can hardly move as all my muscles are sore... :(
