Lots of rumours of a new model the 5370 from Leica are now appearing. The Leica T was refreshed to the TL last year, but this was more software then an actual upgrade. Lots of government websites show a new Leica model using the code 5370 has now been registered so it should only be another couple months.
The pub refurbishment is moving along, with the good weather they have started on replacing the old roof.
Having a week off meant we had an excuse to take Timmy for a good walk so we decided to have a long walk by the canal into Lincoln.
The old Ruddock’s building had an exhibition this month. Lincoln University has a large film, TV and lens based media department and some of the students work went on show.
We now have a week at home to work on the garden. We will be making the odd trip into town but mostly it will be a mix of gardening, DIY and enjoying the delights of the village.
The new owners of our village pub are taking it from strength to strength. One of the issues is that the bar area is rather small, and with us having Timmy the Greyhound the bar is the only area we can go into if we want our hound with us. So this month they have started on a extension.
Its now the time of year where there is always something going on in Lincoln, this time on my Lunch time walk it was some street theatre.
If you have never been, you really must visit Lincoln, the Cathedral alone is one of the most impressive buildings in the whole world.
Back at work on Thursday, well at least for half of the day. Meetings in the morning, quick walk into town to take a few snapshots and add to my dog days project, then back to home to finish up some work in peace.
Apple started their World Wide Developers Conference today and there was some exciting announcements for Mac’s and iOS. The MacBook Pro got some nice updates as did the iMacs. Hopefully we will see a new MacPro next year.
I was hoping to see the little MacBook updated. Its been getting more powerful for light work since the last update, but it only has the one USB3.1 port, it really needs two Thunderbolt 3 ports to make it more useful for those wanting a small laptop to do occasional real work.
