Sorry no blogging yesterday......... the amount of time allotted for sleep was down to an almost record breaking 1 hour 20 mins......... I could not spare any of that time for blogging.......... I have got some pretty good excuses for this state of affairs........ You know the routine....... An old friend came into town (true)....... My suit was at the cleaners (.... er do I have a suit?)...... I got a flat ( this bit is true)....... There were locusts (something similar)........ One of my cameras broke (Aggggggghhh! ) ..... blah blah.......

Yeah one of my trustee EOS1 Ds Mk2's broke down......... I rapidly followed it........

Im still down at the Gulf looking at the BP oil slick. Like them....... I could do without equipment failure.

Anyway the day was saved cos Matt ran about like crazy in Atlanta....... bought a new camera....... dived on a Delta flight down to New Orleans.

I had driven to Baton Rouge and back and picked Matt up at the NO airport at midnight........ He then stayed in an exceptionally dodgy hotel at the airport and flew back out early the next day............. This I think you will agree is way way beyond the call of duty.......... Matt is such a great friend and a mega pro he is an all round brilliant bloke.

Anyway I then get back to my hotel in town at about 1-30 AM I then fiddle with and check the new camera......... till 2-40AM...... finally go to bed ........ then the alarm goes off at 4AM........ yeah 1 hour 20 mins...........

Next thing I know Ed has hit this pot hole or something and we are changing the wheel on the car at 4-45 AM like we are in an F1 team............ cos we are rolling to meet Captain Zach......... and you know what they say time and tide waits for no man..........

Its getting to that time again lids are way heavy ........ I'll tell you about our boat trip tomorrow......... :-/ :-)) XXXXXXXXX

I shot this as I was about to roll out of Baton Rouge............ :-))

Cheers Jez XXXXXXXXXXX
