We'll go dancin' and eatin' it up.

redcountess and I are sitting here eating a roast dinner of silverside beef, potatoes, parsnips, peas, carrots and miniature Yorkshire puddings, prepared by the wondrous arkady, who actually enjoys cooking. And some people are sceptical of the advantages of polyamory.

lucybond and cavalorn were going to visit today (down for jon_the_id's wedding), but Liz was far too unwell to cope with visitors. However, Arkady and I (mostly her) got the house tidied in any case. Arkady also spent all day making cakes. (With dolly assistance.)

I have been eBay whoring and landed nice deals on three 2MP Ixus cameras, two of which work. (The third is suffering the dreaded E18 error and I'll be trying my hand at fixing it myself.) The pixel count is lower than modern fashion, but the optics are famously nice (see my Whitby April 2003 pics: Thu, Fri day, Fri eve, Sat, Sun-Tue). I'll be offering them to you lot before eBay, if anyone's after a fantastically nice little camera.

I still have no idea what to ask for on my free rubber stamp. Update: Yes I have.
