So the film came back from Max Spielmann today.  I had to get out the older laptop as it has a CD/DVD installed to have alook at what came. This is the film that only had 7 exposures taken before it went into "storage".  When I am able to I'll share the magnificence of them, or maybe not. A couple of the 2004 Hyundai Getz we owned and one of the cat! Well, two of the cat, she moved for one picture and blurred it. Of course with digital that would have simply been deleted.

Maybe this one will come back....
