The weather in Lane Cove is not so great (4pm), constant rain drizzle.:cry:
Hope it clears up later for the lucky few! :D

And raincoats wouldn't go astray... Holding a brollie and trying to take a shot, is a really juggling act :)

The NSW Police have 50 brand new, never worn, bright lime green safety vests that would be eminently suitable for DSLRUSers.com members.

They were originally intended for their Aboriginal Community Liason Officers to wear, and were ordered with the approrpiate acronym - ACLO - displayed on the back.

What was delivered was slightlly different from what was ordered, with the printers suffering from a dyslexic moment during the initial setup. :)

Craig...

Dyslexic ...

only two letters need to be swapped, and I've already given a very serious clue in stating that it's eminently suitable for members of DSLRUsers.com.

Certainly, more than .05 of 'em.

Give the man a kewpie doll.

Hell, if it were summer, I'd try and find 17 of em!

:)

Now, just consider watching that nice person from your local gendarmerie wandering down the road to help the local indigenous community, wearing a bright lime vest proclaiming that he's an "ALCO" ...
